Nice App - Revived my iPad2 - better transition please

Nice App. Able to do a full screen slide show on my iPad2. Great. Had to buy in app purchase for $5 (worth it) to be useful - else 5 min between transitions.

I like the Ken Burn effect - but not all pictures are framed properly - so would prefer other transitions. Glad it’s a soft transition instead of abrupt one as it’s in Google slide show.

Nice to include Clock, if someone wants a clock in addition to picture.

Over all very happy. Will go from 4 star to 5 star with more transitions.

Works as advertised across iPad & Mac Devices

Works great. Surprised by amount of available customization. Highly recommended.

Too limited

I wanted to like this but….

I’ve used similar apps on my old obsolete Nexus 7 tablet and this doesn’t have as much functionality. For reference, check out Fotoo. It has many more options for sources (as many Google Photos albums as you want, as long as each album has less than 1000 photos), internals, transitions, etc.

Great app

It’s a great app. One issue that I have is that when I rotate the device the picture seems to go off screen.

Outstanding

Shuffle mode is totally random - l LIKE it - and it refreshes as quickly as 5 seconds and there is zero setup. Just my pictures, one after another. Perfect.

I have nothing but problems

I finally have very tension I don’t what I do I cannot get it to filter the screen if you had all the feels it cut off part of the picture

Does exactly what it says on the tin for a very reasonable price

Purchased the upgrade and love the additional features. By far the best photo frame app I’ve tried. Easy linking with google photos was a key for me. Feature requests: The Ken Burns feature works perfectly on some photos, but on others, it zooms in on completely the wrong part of the photo. I’m not exactly sure how to improve on this, but maybe adjusting the strength of the ken burns effect, or being able to select a focus point?

I also don’t see the need for a black screen between images, can we have the next queued image loaded in the background prior to being shown?

Quits often

Got this about two months ago it worked great for about four or five weeks, now it quits often.

Perfect

Used for a photo frame containing an iPad which previously ran slide shows based on the photos on the device, which were annoying to sync. Now it all just works - new photos on Google photos appear automatically on the iPad solo slide show soon after they are added. Bought the premium version to allow shorter display times and enabled other features to fine tune. Thanks for a great app.
