User Reviews for SoloSlides for Google Photos

So good so far

Purchased the app and testing out the features. Looks clean and is working smoothly. Only suggestion so far is multiple album selection, I know other apps similar to this allow for that feature but they don’t look as nice.

Slooooowwwww

It works but it’s soooo slow to start a slide show unless the pictures are on your phone or tablet. I linked my Google Photo account to it and tried doing a slideshow of a folder using a high speed WiFi connection in my house and it took well over a minute to start and the time between pics took forever.

App will stream Google photos on an iPad.

This app will stream Google photos to an iPad and not limit you to one or more selected pictures or albums. Works well, and will cast to a Samsung Smart TV directly. I can't find another app that has this ability.Improvements request: ability to play videos in order or at random within the slide show, transition animation, zoom into photos (KenBurns effect), suppress notification on iPad to not interfer, show date of picture when casting to TV. Thanks for the app.

Too limited

I wanted to like this but….I’ve used similar apps on my old obsolete Nexus 7 tablet and this doesn’t have as much functionality. For reference, check out Fotoo. It has many more options for sources (as many Google Photos albums as you want, as long as each album has less than 1000 photos), internals, transitions, etc.

Works well, except doesn’t run forever

I want to turn my old iPad into a great photo frame showing my google photos. This app comes so close. But it stops or crashes (can’t tell which) about once a day. I want it to run continuously forever. If the developer is concerned about that being unwanted, just add a setting for how long to run in slideshow mode.

The best way to use your iPad as a photo frame

We've tried all the other apps. They're clunky, with weird restrictions and confusing UIs. They also have less reliable Google API connections, needing to keep logging in again and again. This app is so easy to use. Connects immediately and you just do it once. Has lots of settings including a reliable night mode and it can even broadcast to Apple TVs via Screen Mirroring (autocrops nicely). We love the "hide" photo feature, as sometimes our phone screenshots ended up in the vacation albums!The UI is very easy, even for my not-tech-enthusiast parents. A beautiful, simple way to reflect on your memories. If you have Google Photos and a stationary iOS device, this is the app you need for photo slideshows. Nothing else compares.

Perfect

This is a simple, well-designed app. The negative reviews appear to have been written prior to newer versions being released. I am very satisfied with the $5 we spent for the premium version. Seems silly not to pay $5 for an app to turn a several hundred dollar iPad into a beautiful picture frame rather than an unusable piece of junk

Requests

On the menu to select a Google Photos album. Is there a possibility to display the actual Google Photos album view that shows the album covers?Whenever I’m done playing a slideshow and want to select another album I have to go out and select Google Photos. It takes 2 minutes to refresh and then I can select another album. Am I doing it right?It would be really cool to play music from my music app while watching a slideshow 😀Add slide transition times 3 & 4 seconds.Add slide transition/animation options.3 stars for now 5 if you consider my requests.

Works well, could use minor improvements

Nice app. Works well to provide the slideshow feature that is oddly absent from the Google Photos iOS app. It works well for screen mirroring onto an AppleTV. It could use improvements to make it more interactive-friendly:- It needs an option to restart a slideshow. Currently you have to switch albums then back again as a workaround. - The buttons are finicky. If you don’t press the forward advance button just right and missed, it thinks I wanted to hide the menus. I think the active area of the buttons need to be larger, or have clearly defined with borders.Update -1 StarThe slideshow cuts off photos that don’t fit the frame of the viewing device, in my case a mirrored tv. The full screen setting was turned on/off to test if that was the source of the issue, but that setting seemed to do nothing.

Nice App - Revived my iPad2 - better transition please

Nice App. Able to do a full screen slide show on my iPad2. Great. Had to buy in app purchase for $5 (worth it) to be useful - else 5 min between transitions. I like the Ken Burn effect - but not all pictures are framed properly - so would prefer other transitions. Glad it’s a soft transition instead of abrupt one as it’s in Google slide show. Nice to include Clock, if someone wants a clock in addition to picture. Over all very happy. Will go from 4 star to 5 star with more transitions.
