Wanted an app for my grandmas iPad to cheer her up with family photos while she’s in nursing home. But of course, she’ll touch a photo she likes, to try to make it bigger. This app does fine until you touch a photo. Instead of making it bigger, or showing the album with the photo centered, it just takes you to this app’s settings, with a bunch of complicated settings my grandma doesn’t need to see. But you can get to this app’s settings via it’s dedicated icon, so touching a photo shouldn’t also take you to settings. Whoever wrote this app clearly didn’t think of grandma’s in nursing homes who can’t see and just want to make the picture bigger. Bummer. Instantly uninstalled, and my $1 lost.
Developer Response
Yeah, as far as I know it’s not possible to link straight to a photo in the photos app. I wish there was!
Please, file a return request with Apple! Get the money back if you don’t like it, seriously.
#2 photo widget for albums
My only complaint is that you can’t have the album title shown. Would like to see a disable/enable option for that if it’s possible. Even in spite of that.. 5 stars!
Works great
Works exactly as expected, but I would like the option to switch photos every 30 seconds or something like that.
