Ratings and reviews

Running review while testing... 1. Assuming the long black screen pauses are from the ad system so I'll ignore that. 2. tap a photo to view it, but you can't pan&zoom it. 3. Would expect a swipe to move fwd/back... but no. Whether you want to see that last pic, or want to get current one off the screen, you have a PITA process. Transitions all seem clunky, no simple crossfade. Hoping there's better out there but haven't found it yet.

It handles a large number of files, and that's great. What's terrible is that there appears to be no way to change the source folder, or any options at all other than the transition effects and photo resolution. God help you if you need to alter any actual program settings or select a different source option - even a different folder on your own network - because I have yet to find a way to open that menu anywhere.

This is the best photo frame app I have found so far. I particularly like (1) works properly on several devices I have tried it on (2) pulls photos from a network drive (e.g. USB stick plugged in to my router) (3) Auto-start mechanism works well (4) Displays all the JPEG formats that I have thrown at it so far (which is more than can be said for some apps) (5) Flexible options for things like transitions, caching, photo order, etc. I bought the premium version right away - very good for the price.
