It’s pretty cool how things we purchase can just lose functionality at the drop of a hat.

    Huh, I never knew this existed, or I might have bought a couple.

    I’ve been thinking of digital picture frames both for myself, as my kids go off to college, and my Mom, as her grandkids go to college. However I’ve never been happy with how easy they are to manage

    • I want mine to just work, and incorporate new pictures as I take them
    • my Mom is not very tech savvy, so it really has to just work regardless of what she does, plus I need to be able to update it remotely

    I see a variety of digital pictures frames and see how they try to make updating them easy, but I don’t see why they’re not completely automatic.

    My phone automatically detects faces as I take pictures: I have a kids album that’s automatically updated whenever I take a photo of my kids. That’s how easy I want it

        I’ve heard it works for pretty well for androids, but I’m in the Apple ecosystem so it requires extra steps
