Widget Update
Love the frame, love the app, my one request is on the widget behavior. I use the widget on my phone so that I can see photos daily, love it! My one request is that whenever a photo on the widget comes up that I want a closer look at I wish the widget would take you straight to the photo within the app!

Love it, but needs a tweak
Received the frame as a gift & we really enjoy it. However, there needs to be a way to delete a single pic at a time instead of having to delete the whole group sent, I.e., I sent 4 & want to delete 1. I shouldn't have to delete all 4 & resend the 3 I want to keep.
APP ALWAYS CRASHES
Every. single. Time. I try and upload photos the stupid app crashes!! They claim to “fix bugs” every update yet somehow my app keeps crashing after every update for months !! What bugs are you exactly “fixing”
Needs a universal setting for pillarboxing/letterboxing instead of cropping
The app generally works great. My only issue with it is related to how they handle the fact that a frame can only display photos in either 4:3 landscape mode or 3:4 portrait mode (depending on the physical orientation of the frame). This physical limitation of the frame is obviously reasonable.
What doesn't make sense, however, is how the app deals with photos that don't fit into one's chosen aspect ratio. The only default option is to allow it to "intelligently" (never has a less accurate descriptor been used) select a region of your photos to zoom into so that the width fits the full size of the frame. This is done to avoid pillarboxing and letterboxing (black bars on the sides of the screen), but it inevitably crops out parts of the photos that I would like to see, and often zooms in on regions that don't make sense (why, sure, I guess I would like to see the bottom half of my wife's nose at the top of the screen and not her entire head).
The only remedy for this hardly counts. You can display an entire photo, with letterboxing or pillarboxing, by going through every individual photo you add of an aspect ratio that doesn't completely fill the screen in the app, tap on it, tap "position", tap "fit", and tap "save." This entire process takes about 5–10 seconds PER PHOTO, and must be performed ONE PHOTO AT A TIME. If you add hundreds of photos to your slideshow (kind of the point of a digital picture frame, no?), this is a tedious and incredibly lengthy process you must repeat EVERY SINGLE TIME YOU ADD A PHOTO. It's a horrendous and inexcusable UX.
The tedium of this "solution" is exacerbated because the real solution is so obvious, too: make a global option (or per frame) that allows the user to select whether they want to deal with photos of the "wrong" shape by zooming and cropping, or by pillarboxing/letterboxing, and use that as the default for newly added photos. In addition, it should be possible to select multiple photos and set the same option for "fit" to the entire selection. (On a related note: why is there no "select all" option?) It's frankly so obvious how to fix this problem that I'm astounded this still isn't an option in 2026.
Instead, I am relegated to tediously paging through hundreds and thousands of photos, one at time, to be able to have my frame display the entire photo. This is my life for hours and hours whenever I add a large batch of photos. I feel myself withering as I do so, losing precious time I could be using to make more photo-worthy moments to one poorly thought-out part of an app.

Age rating
So this app is amazing and all, but i feel the age rating is a wee bit high for this app. Otherwise, love it!
