Everything you need to know about Legacybox BackupUpdated 20 hours ago

What is Legacybox Backup?

Legacybox Backup is an older storage plan that keeps your digitized videos, photos, and audio stored securely online. It's no longer sold to new customers, but active Backup accounts are still fully supported.

Backup has now merged into the Legacybox web app, the same platform as the Legacybox Membership, and it is becoming one of that membership's two plans: the Backup Membership.


What changed?

Backup accounts used to have their own login page, where you signed in with your order number and email. That page has been replaced. You now sign in at my.legacybox.com, the same place as every Legacybox account, and you no longer need your order number.

Nothing happened to your archive. Everything you had in Backup is still stored.


What's changing with Backup pricing?

Starting September 23, 2026, Legacybox Backup accounts become Legacybox Memberships, and the plan you're on changes at your next renewal. If you pay $79.99 per year today, you move to a Family Membership at the same price and gain the full app. If you pay less than $79.99 per year, you move to a Backup Membership at $49.99 per year, which keeps your archive stored and downloadable. Your renewal date and billing frequency don't change, and you'll receive an email before anything takes effect.

The full details are in 2026 Legacybox membership price updates.


How do I sign in?

  1. Go to my.legacybox.com.

  2. Sign in with the email address on your Backup account.

  3. Your Backup archive appears at the top of the page, with everything it contains counted by videos, photos, and audio.

How do I download my archive?

You can prepare your entire archive as a single download and save it to your computer. The steps are in How do I access and download my Backup archive?


What's the difference between a Backup Membership and a Family Membership?

A Backup Membership keeps your archive stored, shows you what it contains, and lets you download it. A Family Membership adds the rest of the web app: viewing your memories, organizing them into collections, and sharing them with family. You can upgrade any time in your account.


⚠️ Important note about cancellation

If you cancel your Backup account, your files remain accessible until the end of your billing period. After that, you lose access to your memories online. If you want to keep copies, download your archive before canceling.
