Why in the world are people paying for this? You can get displays like this for digital photos that don’t even require an internet connection, much less a subscription. Is this how far people have gone in their unwillingness to learn to use technology that isn’t some cloud/app based bullshit? Just put some pictures on an sd card and be done with it.
Great suggestion, but then when I want to send new photos to Grandma I have to drive all the way across the country to pop in a new SD card because last time we tried letting her do it she jammed the card in backwards and broke the card and reader.
My wife bought internet connected frames for family. We set the frames up on a visit and the pictures are delivered automatically to the non technical relatives as we upload new ones.
That said, I’d never use an echo for this, that’s super invasive.
I’m going to be honest. Outside of elderly relatives on the cognitive decline, the “inability” to transfer files to a SD card is nothing other than laziness. Any functioning person that’s capable of making themselves a PB&J sandwich is more than capable of it. They choose to all of a sudden be stupid the moment a computer enters the discussion. It’s a choice made purely out of laziness.
