### 5/5 — ほぼ完璧

*2026-07-19*

ほぼ完璧な求める機能のアプリになったので、プロ版にしました。

iPadで使っているのですが、外付けusbのフォルダが選択できないのが最近気になってきました。
ある程度画像が溜まったらusbに移しているので、直接フォルダを選択できると助かります。
ご一考いただけますと幸いです。

追伸
ファイルを直接参照できる機能ありがとうございます！！！！！

**Developer response:** 再度コメントしていただきありがとうございます！

外付けUSBメモリからの写真をスライドショーする機能ですね。
その機能に関しましては現在開発を進めており、今後追加予定です。
今回ご要望をいただいたので優先度を高めて開発していきたいと思います。

今後ともご活用よろしくお願いいたします！

### 1/5 — 落ちた後、何度再起動しても…

*2026-07-18*

スライドショーを一時停止し、共有ボタンっぽいデザインのアイコンをタップした所、SafariWebブラウザが立ち上がりAmazon Primeのページ(広告先？)を表示して、アプリ側は「Now Loading……」と表示したまましばらくすると落ち、以降何度起動しても「Now Loading….…」と表示したままとなって操作不能のままとなる。iPadPro、iPadOS 26.2.1。
落ちた上、以降何度再起動しても操作不能のままというのは結構致命的なバグと思われ、これが改善されない限りは全く使い物にはならないだろう。

2026/07/18 追記
その後、本日先ほども含め何度か再インストールしても動作変わらず。
再インストール直後の起動では一瞬初期画面になるもののしばらくするとNow Loading… のみの表示になったまま応答せず。
結論として全く使いものになりません。

**Developer response:** 返信が遅くなり、失礼いたしました。

お確かめいただきありがとうございました。
改善には至っていなかったようで、申し訳ございません。

やはり起動時にローディングになり続けてしまうということですね。

今回いただいたご報告をもとに、
別のアプローチでバグの改善を行い、
アップデートのバージョン3.2.12を配信いたしました。

アプリをアップデートの上、起動ができるかお試しいただけますと幸いです。

向上につながるご報告、誠にありがとうございます。
何卒よろしくお願いいたします。

### 3/5 — needs Files access

*2026-06-22, version 3.2.11*

i would rate 5 stars if it had the ability to browse Files in addition to Photos on iOS

### 5/5 — スライドショーでの表示順

*2026-06-18*

スライドショーで、1枚当たりの表示時間を変えられるので、タイマー代わりに毎日使っています。
スライドショーでの写真の表示順が選べるとありがたいです。ファイル名順とか、アルバムへの追加順とか。ご検討いただけると幸いです。よろしくお願いします。

**Developer response:** シャッフルフォトをお使いいただき誠にありがとうございます。
そして★5の高評価も本当にありがとうございます。

タイマー代わりこのアプリをご活用いただいているのですね。その発想は思いつきませんでした、参考にさせていただきます！

スライドショーの表示順をファイル名順やアルバムへの追加順にしたいということですね、今後その機能を追加する優先順位を上げさせていただきます。

ご感想ありがとうございました！
今後ともアプリをお楽しみいただけると幸いです。

### 5/5 — いつもお世話になってます

*2026-06-04*

いつもお世話になってます。iPhoneデフォルトのカメラロールのスライドショー機能がゴミすぎるため、こちらを利用してます。
写真枚数が多すぎたりスライドショー時間が長いとスマホアチアチになるので、ほどよく利用しています。
広告の数もぜんぜん気になるレベルではありません。

**Developer response:** こちらこそお世話になっております。
いい感じにこのアプリをご活用して頂き、とても嬉しいです！

広告が気になるレベルではないと書いて頂けて、安心いたしました。
とてもご寛大なお言葉ありがとうございます。今後の参考にいたします。

スライドショーが長かったり、写真枚数が多いとスマホが熱くなるのですね。原因を探って対策していきたいと思います。

ご感想ありがとうございました、今後ともよろしくお願いいたします！

### 5/5 — Can’t complain

*2026-05-02*

Been using this app for years. Can’t complain. It’s to the point. Gets the job done. UI is simple. Wish it had a little more features, like maybe playback speed feature but at that point I’d just use a media player instead. This is an efficient, solid, reliable, easy, no bs slideshow app (especially compared to other ones). Do recommend.

**Developer response:** Thank you for being a long-time user and for the ★5 review!

When you mention playback, are you referring to the speed of video playback?
You're right that video playback is fairly limited at the moment. 
I'll keep it in mind as I think about the direction for future updates.

I'm really glad you appreciate the simplicity!
I'll keep working to maintain an app that's efficient, solid, reliable, and easy to use.

Your overall impressions are really helpful to read.
Your review is fuel for development.
Thank you again, and happy slideshowing!!

### 5/5 — ビデオの音声が流れません ※解決済み

*2026-04-19*

日々愛用させていただいております。タイトルの通り、ビデオの音声を設定からオンにしても流れない事象が発生しております。ここだけ改善してもらえたら、純正の写真アプリではできなかったやりたかったことが全てできるようになるので、改善もしくは解消法をご提示いただけますとありがたい限りです。

4月19日更新
消音、マナーモードだと音声が流れない仕様とのこと、ご回答いただきありがとうございました！事象が改善されました。おかげでipadでやりたかったことが叶いました。これを機に購入させていただこうと思います。今後ともよろしくお願いいたします。

**Developer response:** 高評価レビューとご返信いただき誠にありがとうございます。

やりたかったことを叶えられたということで、こちらもとても嬉しいです。

ご購入もとても助かります。ありがとうございます！
今後ともご活用していただければと思います！

### 5/5 — Exactly what I wanted

*2026-04-13*

I wanted my old iPad to display photos from an Album. This app is simple and intuitive. The free version is good enough to use with unabtrusive banner ads at the bottom when not in a slideshow, making it truly great. 
Extra features, if you want are in a premium version, that also removes ads.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the ★5 review!

You're making such great use of your old iPad!
It's so great to hear you feel the app is simple and intuitive.

Your review means a lot and keeps us motivated.
We'll keep working hard to make the app even better!

### 1/5 — お世話になってましたが

*2026-04-13*

スライドショーの途中に全画面で全く興味のない広告が出るようになったので、アンインストールしました
製品版を買えという事なんでしょうけど、あまりに無神経すぎます

**Developer response:** 不快な体験をさせてしまい、大変申し訳ございませんでした。

全画面の広告はスライドショーが終わった際に出るようにしており、
スライドショーの途中で広告が出ることは、こちらの不手際による不具合です。

購入のためにスライドショーの途中に広告を出すという意図はありませんでした。

今後はバグを修正とともに、より納得いただける広告の出し方に改善したいと思っております。

改善につながるご評価ありがとうございます。
問題が解決できるよう努めてまいります。

### 4/5 — Shuffle Review

*2026-03-28, version 3.2.7*

Fairly easy but some things aren’t so intuitive. Wish there were many different random transitions.
