### 4/5 — Fabulous, needs one little fix

*2023-07-11*

I looked for quite a while after the digital photo frame app I was using on my old iPad went away.  Finally found. DP Frame, and I love it.  I just wish that I could select where the current date and time are displayed.  Based on what I can find, my only choice is the lower right, and that is where I have my trip info imbedded in my photos.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated. We’ll see if we can address this issue in the next version of Frame Pro (https://lnaapplications.com/framePRO/ ) Unfortunately we can’t change DPFrame anymore (and preserve support for iOS 5.1.1 devices) due to App Store release rules. - LNA Applications

### 5/5 — IPad mini photo frame

*2021-09-08*

Just turned my iPad mini 1st gen into a photo frame and I didn’t have to spend a ridiculous amount of money to do so! I can’t believe some people even offer subscriptions to a photo frame app. With this one though, it’s a one time ¢99 and you get all the functionality you need! My only gripe (and it’s probably just because the iPad is so old) is that the dissolve transition is a bit choppy. Other than that this app is PERFECT for your iOS 9.3.5 locked iPad! Thank you!
