Love the idea of it and the pictures look great but there’s no way to delete photos from the app or website. The UX is so poorly designed it’s pretty much unusable. I see there have been the same issues for a decade while scrolling other reviews. Unfortunate. ### 5/5 — Great way to stay connected *2025-10-21* I have so many family members with frames! The app is easy and we love our frames ### 1/5 — App crashes *2025-07-10, version 3.8* App crashes when I try to send photos. Got one and now I can’t use it because I can’t send photos. ### 5/5 — Love this! *2024-10-21* I have no bad things to say about this, this app may be a bit slow, but it’s so cute walking by the photo spring in our house hold and seeing all of our old photos show up. It’s so adorable! Highly recommend getting one. ### 2/5 — Needs work *2024-01-28* I don’t own the frame, I use this app to send photos of my kids to their grandparents’ frame. Two features are badly needed: 1) I need to see what photos I’ve already sent to their frame. 2) I need a fullscreen view of the photos as I’m selecting them. I can’t always see which photo I want from the thumbnail. iOS does this perfectly when you hit the share button from a photo. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2023-12-14, version 3.7* I can’t get it to manage photos in the app. ### 1/5 — App is horrible and basic *2023-01-05* You can’t see what photos you’ve sent to a frame. You create a playlist but when you go to upload photos to a frame and want to upload to the existing playlist, you can’t see the playlist. The app design and layout is incredibly basic. I wouldn’t suggest the frame for the simple fact that the app is just very underdeveloped. ### 1/5 — Crazy bad *2022-05-13, version 3.7* I saw the reviews and thought can’t be that bad .. I was wrong this thing will drive you crazy . Frame works great, App needs a lot of workcgfire ### 5/5 — What I needed *2022-02-07* What I needed so far. Would be nice to be able to upload with Google photos. ### 1/5 — Not good *2022-01-26, version 3.3* Half of the photos I send never come up on the digital frame. This never happened in the past with a previous picture frame from a different brand that had a separate app. ## Frequently asked questions about PhotoSpring ### What does the PhotoSpring app do?
