If you’ve been using Parse as part of a photo-sharing app, you might want to take a look at http://www.ostetso.com. While we’re by no means a drop-in replacement for Parse, what we DO offer are all the pieces needed to create an instagram-like app, including the image hosting, user management, code that gives you a gallery of user images, etc., etc. (iOS only at this point though.) Check out the source code for an example app on Github (at https://github.com/PrecipiceLabs/Ostetso_SharePictures) that uses the Ostetso platform.

Free until you get to a LOT of traffic/users.
