Photo Slides (Photo Frame) Pro for Android
File explorer doesn't work. If I can't get to my pictures, it's pretty much useless, isn't it.
Why won't this app play my slides in order. Fix. And I will fix this review
Very easy to use. I used a google drive sync app to store images onto a tablet, then use this app to make a digital photoframe for my mom that I can add images to easily
Samsung TabS and Galaxy S5; This is my favorite app on both my phone and tablet. I run it when I'm working and not using my device. I truly love seeing all my pictures during the day to keep me inspired. The onscreen clock is great and I use that constantly to keep track of my day. I do have 1 request. Every now and then the app tells me it can't display an image, but it doesn't tell me why and it goes by so fast I can't always identify which image has an issue. It would be great to have access to an error report or even a simple list of images that were identified as having an error. I might be able to fix them.
The strength of this app is the ability to filter photos based on the original orientation - for example allows a different selection of photos if you need to switch orientation whilst charging. Works with a range of operating systems - 2.2 upwards. A excellent development would be the ability to access cloud storage.
I bought this app after trying out the free version for want of one of the premium features. It turns out that the premium feature is broken! And the help and response from the support team has not at all been encouraging till now.
Running on a really old chinese tablet together with a dropbox-sync app makes a wonderful live photo album for old family members :-) Very good!
Disappointed. . Can't read external sd card please make it work
Although the last fix for panorama issues took quite a while to come but after the fix the app is working perfectly, keeping my Touchpad a good photo frame! Thanks developer! Money well spent on this app!
Overall, good app, but NEEDS an option to wipe the database. If you have a lot of pictures, and remove a folder from the ones you want to view, they remain in the database, throwing errors every time the picture tries to display because it's "missing". Only way I've found of fixing is to uninstall and reinstall, which is a pain in the butt. Been this way a long time (many months at least), and no fix yet. Also has issues accessing SD with Kitkat, even with it rooted.

I purchased the Sony tablets because they look great when docked in landscape mode and this app means that they work as photo frames when docked switching on and off at set times. I also use Foldersync to update the photos from a network drive each night.
1.23: Thanks for improvement. I Purchased this app because it support DLNA. But it keeps disconnected ... Need to improvement
(sorry - email to developer is bouncing back). I love everything about the app, but how do I delete pics during the slideshow as described in the features? Also it would be nice if there were two scheduled on off time for morning and night.
And the developer has cracked it with Google and completely discontinued all support for this product!!
Excellent App and Developers. Does exactly what it claims and they fix issue's when they're found.
V 2.03:I don't know what happened, but the transitions are horrible now. Earlier versions had a nice smooth effect like Windows 7 wallpaper. Now it seems to be about 5 frames per second, flickering between the two. Please fix this... it looks horrible! It should sit in the dock and be a photo frame.. It's now jarring enough on crossfade to be distracting while watching TV. Was 4 stars now it's stretching for a 2... V 2.0: Could you move the options and close (power) button up to the center of the screen, I seem to hit the back button quite often when I intend to hit the options. On the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 the play/pause is directly above the touchwiz apps button which gets hit a lot, since deleting or disabling a photo requires me to start the slideshow again. You should call it pro since most people will try the free app first, and after purchase I almost uninstalled it since the they're named the same and have the same icon. And let me kill off the date on the clock.. It's handy but an option to hide it would be nice... Overall, very nice. Almost exactly what I want...
I use this along with Tasker to make my tab into a picture frame whenever it is placed in the desk dock. Since the tab has a really good screen and loads of memory this works superbly. I needed to set the high colour option to make the pictures display at their best. Great app, thanks!
No matter what settings you choose or folder you select the slideshow shows all content
$2.99 Pro version: Options DO NOT WORK!
really worthful app! when my tab is not in use it just plays slideshows!
Better than most, but still needs work Overall, good app. But I have noticed that it tends to get stuck from time to time if you have a lot of pictures. When that happens, it just sits on the spinner/loading screen forever, until you "bump" it in any of several ways. Also annoying is that it stays on the "About" screen whenever there's an update. At least, I'm guessing that's why it stays there. After swiping past a pic, it stays paused. It should continue on if you only want to skip a pic. Happy with performance on Galaxy Note 2, Galaxy S3, Sensation 4G and Toshiba Thrive.

This app just saved me the hassle of buying a digital photo frame. But i would love it if it could integrate Accuweather and shows weather together with the time and date. That would be perfect!
