1. Install and open Fravora
Download Fravora from Google Play or the Amazon Appstore, complete first-launch onboarding, and grant photo/media permissions so the app can read selected sources.
How to turn your tablet into a digital photo frame
Fravora setup is built for speed. Most users can move from install to a running slideshow in under 10 minutes with first-launch onboarding, whether using Google Photos, local folders, NAS/SMB, or other supported cloud sources.
2. Complete onboarding source and album setup
During onboarding, pick your source strategy and create your first album:
- Local folders for fully offline photo playback
- NAS/SMB shares for home network storage
- Google Photos and other supported cloud providers for remote libraries
3. Refine your slideshow profile
After onboarding, adjust interval, transition style, display mode, and daily running hours. You can keep the frame always-on or schedule active windows.
4. Configure overlays and controls
Enable only the overlays you want: clock, weather, metadata, and now-playing. If needed, activate voice controls for hands-free operation.
5. Dock your device and run
Mount the device, keep power connected, and set display timeout behavior for continuous use. Your Android device now works as a smart photo frame alternative.
Quick setup checklist
- Keep device plugged in for always-on use
- Disable aggressive battery optimization for Fravora
- Set your first album and confirm source scan is complete
- Choose slideshow interval, order, and running hours
- Optionally enable weather, radio, overlays, and voice controls
Common Questions
Can I use an old Android tablet as a photo frame?
Yes. Older Android tablets are perfect for dedicated frame displays in homes and offices. Fravora works well with offline folders, NAS shares, and scheduled playback on older hardware.
Is there a free trial for Pro features?
Yes. New users get a one-time 1-hour PRO trial on first launch, and free users can also unlock temporary PRO access later through optional rewarded ads.
Is Fravora an offline photo viewer for Android?
Yes. Local and NAS/SMB sources can run without internet, which is ideal for privacy-focused setups.
