Smart digital photo frame features

Reliable full-screen playback for tablets and dedicated display devices. Build a Google Photos slideshow, run an offline NAS photo frame, and add weather, audio, and voice control.

🖼️

Offline photo viewer

Use local folders and NAS/SMB shares for private, internet-free playback. Your setup keeps running even when internet drops.

☁️

Google Photos support

Add Google Photos as a source when you want remote access, while still keeping local and NAS sources in the same frame setup.

🚀

First-launch onboarding + starter PRO trial

New users get guided setup for sources and first album, plus a one-time 1-hour PRO trial to explore advanced controls quickly.

🎙️

Voice-controlled

Use wake phrase and command recognition to control slideshow and audio hands-free. Ideal for wall-mounted devices.

Smart scheduling

Set daily running hours so your frame wakes and sleeps automatically. Great for kitchens, offices, and living rooms.

📻

Audio & Overlays

Play internet radio while photos run, with station track info and live weather overlays in corners you control.

🌤️

Metadata and weather overlays

Show clock, weather, photo metadata, and now-playing details where you want, with adjustable size and layout behavior.

🧩

Cloud and local in one frame

Mix Google Photos, OneDrive, Dropbox, and Immich with local folders and NAS paths in the same album workflow.

📶

SMB outage recovery controls

Set NAS reconnect retry intervals and keep playback running from available media while connectivity recovers.

🎵

Local and NAS music playlists

Create folder-based playlists from device storage, SD card, or SMB/NAS shares, with high-performance sync tools.

📅

Calendar & Reminders

Tap the clock to open a full-screen calendar. Manage events and reminders with visual glow alerts on the frame.

🎥

Video Support

Play videos alongside photos in the same album rotation with per-album audio policies (Mute, Duck, or Play).

Cinematic Effects

Add motion to photos with Ken Burns, Drift, and Vignette Pulse. Combine with ten transition styles like Cube or Parallax.

🪄

Image backdrop styles

In Fit mode, style letterbox and pillarbox space with None, Gradient, Solid, Mirrored, or Themed fills.

🙈

Hidden photos management

Hide photos per album or globally without deleting them, then review and unhide later using dedicated controls.

🛡️

OLED burn-in protection

Bouncing standby clock and anti-burn-in micro-shift behaviors reduce static retention risk during long display sessions.

🧭

Premium dashboard UI

Modern card-based settings layout with consistent iconography and themed tinting for faster, clearer navigation.

📍

Landmark Metadata

Show POI names (e.g., "Eiffel Tower") instead of just coordinates with enhanced EXIF geocoding and clean labels.

🧠

Advanced metadata geocoding

Enhanced location naming strips noisy suffixes and surfaces cleaner place names for readable on-frame metadata overlays.

💾

Storage Headroom Guard

Proactive storage management estimates incoming media size and prunes cache oldest-first to avoid running out of space.

☁️

OneDrive, Dropbox, and Immich

Connect multiple cloud providers and self-hosted Immich, then pick exact folders or albums to blend with local sources.

🎞️

Transition variety

Choose from multiple transition styles including Slide, Cube, Crossfade, Parallax, and more for smoother playback flow.

🔀

Smart Shuffle

Reduce burst-photo clumping by spacing similar shots apart, creating more balanced and natural-looking album rotation.

🎨

Color schemes and themes

Switch app theme and color accents to match room lighting and display mood while keeping readability strong.

📺

Android TV and Fire TV support

Optimized controls and navigation for TV-class devices make always-on frame setups viable beyond tablets and phones.

🎛️

Per-album playback controls

Tune playback behavior per album, including video policy and source mix, to build exactly the frame experience you want.

⏱️

Fast setup and instant loading

Designed for quick onboarding and responsive playback, so old and new Android hardware can become a frame in minutes.

Smart photo frame alternative

Fravora turns the Android hardware you already own into a dedicated display. Instead of buying a proprietary frame, you can reuse existing tablets or Fire tablets while keeping your photos private.
