Wow, it seems this app has been neglected for quite a while which is a shame since it (supposedly) does exactly what I need. Don't bother downloading this. Also don't bother trying to communicate with the developer, my email went unanswered. It's dead Jim

Would not connect with my 4G Chromecast unit. An error occurred while connecting to your Chromecast device. Please reload this page to try again.

Garbage. Does not play photos in order, terrible interface with no options for troubleshooting. Don't waste your time.

From the start it has a very low limit you can use. Just advertise for the buy version.

Extremely poor app. Pictures were not displayed in order, regardless of whether "Shuffle" was on or off. Also randomly zooms at different parts of the images, the option to fit the image has no effect.

Crashes before it really even opens. I cannot even try it out on the trial. Why would I spend a penny on the full version. I am not even sure it will actually do what I want it to.

Waste of time. Anyone reading this, who is thinking about getting this app, don't get it. Crashes every time you open it.

This app was a pain to do, after first install they wanted me to install more crap.I never got it running.

Never could get it to even come up on my Windows computer. (Windows 7) Glad I didn't pay anything for it!!!!!

really odd. This app only runs for 30 minutes, then says you need to buy the full version. But, there's no way to buy the full version! Look around the webstore - do you see the full version ?

Slow to load and why can't show a single photo at a time? Kind of defeats the point of a slide show.

load of crap

Why doesn't this app have an option for showing a single picture??? seems kind of pointless otherwise

I seem to only support jpg file format. DNG (RAW) files, which are supported by Chrome, are not displayed.

Can't even open, useless.

The app works well, but not what I wanted. I want to be able to choose which photo to put up on the screen where this app will only allow you to play an entire folder.
