Good Hardware Awful Software
I spent $80 bucks on this from Amazon and cannot register for app. The verification is never sent to my email and you need it to log in. Unfortunately I will have to return. If they fix the bugs it will be an awesome use of an old iPad. But as it stands now it’s just a fancy frame
Ambient Light Issues
Ambient light is permanently stuck on after the last update. Binding and unbinding hasn’t helped.
Today’s release broke the app - MQTT problem
Today’s release broke the ability to control the ambient lighting - have to unplug to turn it off now. Tried all the tricks suggested. Error says “iCharguard MQTT topic is
unavailable. Please refresh device information”
unavailable. Please refresh device information”
They broke what was working!
Finally after years you could get the app to work without crashing all the time with older iPad versions! That was stable and reliable. The app got updated automatically I believe to a version 2.29 that again crashes on older iOS. Fire your developer! They don’t know what they are doing! I cannot delete phones from the controller app - only on device - but you forgot that the point of the product is to bring old iPad to life! So the controller on a phone will always be the powerful one that can manage all settings - when you make the management be on the devices, it will crash on older devices that doesn’t have the resources to photo management. Now I can’t use the frames again because of such poor software management! And this was working! What stupid move from this app updates! What a shame!!

Lite not Pro
The older Non-Pro iFramix has more features, like slowing the slideshow down and dimming it at a certain time.
It has been dumbed down and the old one won't let me upload new photos there, or I'd keep using that. Why'd you take away features? I can at least connect to the charguard on this version and change the led lights. Couldn't do those before, so it wouldn't charge. It's like both of the apps do part of their promised features.
It also only lets me upload 9 at a time and usually a couple of them fail and said they're bigger than 15 MB (they aren't at only about 5MB, but assume it's converting images on the fly and those conversions aren't very efficient).
Please fix all the issues and add the calendar feature as promised. No one wants a giant flip clock. That should just be removed.
