PictoFrame
Read full descriptionHide full description
PictoFrame allows you to display, as in a slide show, the photos shared on PictoFlash, the private social network and the group assistant. No more need for dedicated frames, you can use your iPad as a showcase to watch your albums and your most beautiful photos.
Mantlebox

Turn your iPhone or iPad into a beautiful photo frame. Mantlebox quietly cycles through your favourite Photos album - smooth fades, smart cropping, no clutter. Set it on a shelf, prop it on a desk, and let your memories do the talking. Simple to set up. Lovely to look at.
