Great App…
- SMB protocol connection shows good
- indexing notes correct file count in selected folder
- upon entering slideshow, only a single image is displayed (using shuffle / fade modes). Image will only change with a complete relaunch of the app, but no image transitions.
The app has everything I need! Any suggestions?

Hello! Sorry, I introduced a bug in version 2.3.12. It has since been fixed in a later release, and the slideshow is now running smoothly again ;-) Thank you very much for the nice review!
Amazing app
Every day, I use it on my iPad to enjoy the nearly 90,000 photos and videos stored on my Synology NAS. It truly feels like taking a beautiful trip down memory lane every single time.
A huge thank you to the developer for building this wonderful app and for always responding to user feedback so promptly and kindly.
I’m really grateful — keep up the amazing work!

Thank you so much for your review! Version 2 came with its share of bugs, and it's great to have dedicated users like you providing feedback to help me improve the app's stability 🙏
Great app

Thank you very much for your kind review. I always try to support users with their specific use cases and continuously adapt Pixette so they can get the most out of their older devices !
Almost perfect
But we have had odd issues that keep it from being perfect…
First off, it seems that it doesn’t randomly play ALL files it finds. It’s indexed like 10k pictures but it seems like it rotates through the same small pile over and over. I will often see the same couple of pictures several times in a single day. With over 10k images that shouldn’t happen.
Second, this latest update has brought about some oddities.
It wiped out my server settings and it’s been awhile since I set that up so had to remember all that.
Next, and probably worst so far, the sleep function now doesn’t work as it once did. It used to turn the screen off completely but now it just sits at an illuminated black screen, which uses more power and puts off light all night. Weird.
Hopefully these small bits get resolved as overall we love it.
Update: Recent update seems to have fixed the sleeping and waking. No more illuminated screen and doesn’t seem to crash tying to wake up anymore.
Back to perfect!

Thank you so much for the feedback. I'm continuously working on improving the situation. I'm taking some days off for the holidays but I'll return to it ASAP to fix the sleep mode. Last days, I was working trying to bring stability for older iOS 12.5.7 devices. Basically, the random function shuffles all images into a random list and then goes through it. I could implement a reshuffle once the whole list has been played once to improve the experience 👍 Thank you for your support 🙏
