Electronic Picture Frames

[CYdTracked]

My brother proposed an idea for a Christmas gift for our parents to buy an electronic picture frame that you can send pictures to them remotely through an app. Something like this:



Anyone bought something like this and have any reviews or suggestions of which ones they liked and recommend? Thought this was a pretty cool idea as we would be able to just send photos to this from our phones of their grandkids whenever we have something we want to share with them vs having to email or text.

I like the idea. My main concern with it would be how the software handles how it cycles through the gallery. I'd like it to display recent and "liked" photos more frequently, with older pictures not shown as much, but still included in the rotation.

It would be nice to have options to control things like that. But keeping it simple wouldn't be bad either.

Just like I suspected, I did a quick bit of research and that model does not have very much control available. It is very simple for someone who is not tech savvy, so maybe a good choice for parents or grandparents.

It looks like there are multiple options out there, just find what works best for your recipient's situation.

Thanks for the gift idea, though!

Pix-Star seems to have really good reviews, FYI.
