Reviews and Testimonials
Reviews Summary
Users generally dislike the Frameo app, criticizing its poor user interface, restrictive photo uploading limits (10 photos at a time without a subscription), the inability to adequately adjust or size photos on the frame, the requirement for a premium membership to access basic features, and the subscription-based model. However, some users appreciate the app's concept, ease of adding photos for family members, and the happiness it brings to seeing shared photos.
Purchased as a gift. It's not good. Adding pictures is a huge pain. You can only send 10 at a time without adding a premium membership for each device adding. It's $17ish/year, which isn't a lot, but I could go broke on things that are cheap because there's millions of them. You have to click an "add" button 4 times after selection to add, and you can't go look at what you've already added. Most pictures do not fit well. DO NOT recommend. Trash app and I regret the purchase.-thanks I'll send one

Nice way to send pictures to a photo frame at my "not so tech savvy parents". I just have some comments. First, there is no way to see what the picture will actually look like if you're uploading remotely from a phone. There are times when the pictures is cropped the wrong way. Second, I wish there were more sources for photos, eg. Google photos, sftp, etc.

Hi. If the photo does not match the frame's orientation, it will be cropped around “the most important part” circle. The idea is to ensure that the selected part will always be visible regardless of the frame’s orientation. If you prefer no cropping at all, simply use the “Fit to frame” option on the frame. Best regards Magnus, Frameo.
Why is the software made so that every photo is cut off and only certain portions of it can be viewed in the frame? The Skylight frame is much better in that way, no need to pick which part of the photo the viewer can see in the frame. Only gets an extra star because the captions are free to add (paid feature on comparable frames like Skylight).

The power button is on the back of the frame - very "useful" when the frame hangs on the wall. This is very inconvenient if I want to put Frameo to sleep (which is possible from yhe touch screen) and wake it up later (this is impossible without taking it off the wall).

it's a convenient way to send pics to my in-laws, but I hate how much it zooms in when you're picking 'the most important part of the photo'. I get that a lot gets cut out if you're presenting a portrait photo in landscape, but it should cut out 1/3 of the photo. It looks more like 2/3 of the photo

My sister got this as a gift for my grandma so we can add photos easily from all over the country. App is easy to use, but is so limited on functions. When I upload a photo, I can't adjust the size or the part of the photo I want to show, and it's even worse to choose the circle of the "most important part". I have a few photos I didn't upload because the photo won't show the full family or the circle will not encompass what I want.
Developer response:
Hi! You can skip the cropping simply by tapping the photo when it appears on the frame and hitting “Fit to frame”. You can also set the default for the future by going to “Settings” > “Slideshow” > “Fill frame”. The "important part" is there to let you pick what not to crop - just in case. I hope it helps! Best regards Magnus, Frameo.
Beautiful frame & easy to use. There are a few things that could be better: 1) On the bottom left, it shows my name, and the date that I uploaded the photos . There should be an option to NOT show this 2) On the top right, it shows the time and weather - There should be an option to NOT show this. Overall though, I would recommend!
Developer response:
Hi! You can toggle the entire caption either on or off in the settings on the frame (Settings → Slideshow → Show caption). Also, you can toggle off the weather and clock by going to Settings > Slideshow and toggling the Show weather/clock options off. Best regards Magnus, Frameo.
you never see your photos in the frame how you would expect. they are always cropped in the worst ways. You can only upload 10 images at a time. The app has an awful user interface. I have also used the skylight and aura apps and frames. Save your money and spring for an Aura frame for you or loved ones!! You will be sooo much happier with everything.

Hi. What is shown in the little circle, when sending a photo, is not the only portion of the photo that is received by a frame. The idea is to ensure that the selected part will always be visible regardless of the frame’s orientation. If you prefer no cropping at all, simply use the “Fit to frame” option on the frame. Best regards Magnus, Frameo.
Great Concept. Small tweaks would make it absolutely perfect! +love that you can add allowed people to contribute pictures. - being able to "fit to screen" while uploading, or not having to do it one by one on the device would be nice. - my phone takes photos at the same resolution (1080p) as the frame advertised it is. but when you upload and choose the "focus point," you loose a bit of picture quality. all that being said. it brings me happiness everything I see it. I Love it.

So easy to use. Seamlessly works with our frame. 3 family members upload pics to it, and it's a nice surprise to see new pics appear. Timer setting for certain hours, so we don't have to turn it off and on. The only improvement I'd make is: load image meta data to display date photo was taken. It adds upload date, but not photo date, (must add manual comment). UPDATE: Won't upload pics direct from PC, (except by SD card or lead). Inconvenient when adding old scanned photos.
