"My problem - Synology NAS drive with almost 70K photos accumulated over 20+ years and no easy way to view them. Got a gently used iPad and with this app turned it into a very decent slideshow device. Setup was quite straightforward."

"I needed an app to turn an old iPad into a slideshow / digital frame. There are a lot of photos / they won't fit on the local storage of the old iPad. Set this app up to view the share on my NAS, indexed and it worked like a champ."

"Great creative app for Synology NAS users. It has been two weeks and our family is reliving our memories for many years. I have more than 100k photos in my collection."
