Connection issues

Worked great for me until trying again recently and cannot connect it to the TV successfully anymore. TV pops up the permission dialog, clicking allow dismisses the dialog and app says access was denied.

A must have app for Frame TV

This is a must have app for Frame TV. If you like to choose your own artwork from public domain sources and have an easy way to manage artwork for Frame TV, this is the one. Samsung wants to sell their subscription service, so the SmartThings app does not have any workable art management capability.

There is a macOS version for this as well and I use both.

Missing matte

This app is great, BUT…is there any way to add a matte to the art ? That would make it perfect.
