About this app

The refreshingly simple, and remarkably effective, project management platform.

Managing people and projects under pressure is tough enough. Unfortunately, lots of software makes it worse by over-complicating things. Basecamp’s different.

What makes Basecamp special?

It’s dialed in. For nearly two decades, we’ve continually refined a unique set of tools and methods to fundamentally reduce complexity, and make project management more of a joy and less of a chore. Perfected and pressure-tested by hundreds of thousands of teams on millions of projects, Basecamp’s the gold standard for a simpler, superior version of project management.

Basecamp works because it’s the easiest place for everyone in every role to put the stuff, work on the stuff, discuss the stuff, decide on the stuff, and deliver the stuff that makes up every project. Not on separate platforms scattered in various places, but all intuitively organized in one centralized place where everyone can work together.

Basecamp’s intentionally simple by design. It’s why teams that sometimes leave in search of “more power” end up slamming into the consequences of over-powered software: Complexity. Complexity doesn’t work. Basecamp does. It’s why those that leave end up coming back and sticking with us the second time around. You never know what you had until it’s gone.
Basecamp, the refreshingly simple and effective project management platform.

It has its perks sure but it's not like I can use it because it is Always offline!! I can't respond to any of my important messages (and it has nothing to do with my internet connection) and have to get on the desktop app to do Anything, which defeats the purpose of having a mobile app. Sometimes restarting it helps but usually I just have to get on a PC. I really wish desktop app had audio cues for notifications.

The company I work for uses Basecamp countless times on a daily basis. On desktop computers. The app...is another story. I have never had full functionality of the app on my phone. 95% of the time no campfire conversations, pings, to-do's etc etc ever loaded, regardless of how long I waited. The other 5% of the time it functioned after restarting the app multiple times. Since the most recent couple of updates, it now doesn't load 100% of the time.

We've updated the Basecamp 3 app (version 3.18.6). Can you please re-download if you have uninstalled, or update your existing app to see if we've fixed your problems. Once again, I'm sorry about this. Please let us know: support@basecamp.com

This app is great. I had always been averse to trying Basecamp because of the cost, even though a lot of people really seemed to enjoy it it always seemed more for established businesses. Opening up the free tier has given me the chance to try it out for personal projects and some freelance work. As business grows, could definitely see using this on a paid plan because of how intuitive things are. Just very well thought out in the structure of it all.
