I wish we did not choose Aura and went with a frame with internal storage because we gave it to a family member in a care facility with bad wifi and without constant internet connection the aura is useless. Is there a way to download all the photos to move to another brand of dram option?
Why are you looking to download from a device without internal storage? If you have the link to the photo folder meant for your Aura, you should be able to download the pictures directly from there.
I got one as a gift. This is not designed for photographers who have photos on computers and drives. This is designed for the vast majority of users who have all their pictures on their phones.
@slaughter0815 For a number of reasons, many of us don't store on the cloud. The desktop interface is really clunky- but yes, using your phone to select uploads seems to be what it was designed for..,
What concerns me is that if the company goes out of business the frame becomes completely useless since it doesn’t have an internal storage option. Since you’re allowing unlimited storage you’re just eating the cost of that. Which is awesome for us but I’m not confident it’s sustainable for you? This would’ve been an instant purchase on the 15 inch if there was also an SD card option. I would’ve used the cloud service but it would’ve given me piece of mine.
Hello, thanks for the review. With regards to video playback, do videos need to be 30 seconds or less or the frame will play the first 30 seconds of longer videos? Thank you!
@BNJ53 The frame will play the first 30 seconds of the video. You can add one that's longer, it will just get cropped. It will automatically select the first 30 seconds, but if you go into the app you can manually select which 30 seconds of the video you'd like to show.
Do you need to use WiFi when uploading photos from iPhone or can I simply do it over my existing data plan? I’m asking because I don’t have WiFi availability where I live.
@scottt9382 The touchbar works the same on all the models currently available. You can use it to change photos, turn the frame on and off, play a videos sound, see E Label information, and activate the drop down menu.
@javier01 No, not all. The Walden has a matte finish. Here's a link to learn more: www.abt.com/Aura-Digital-Photo-Frame-Walden-15-inch-in-Walden-Ink-with-Textured-Mat-AF110MBLK/p/198196.html
@frankmeier8772 Yes, you can have multiple frames added to the app that you can share photos to. Your parents won't have to do anything except enjoy the photos that you add! Here's a link to all the models we carry from Aura: www.abt.com/resources/pages/search.php?keywords=Aura&Brand[]=Aura If you need any assistance picking one out you can also give us a call at 800-860-3736.

@@phila3884 What would be the difference? Both can work either with cloud or internal storage...

Thank you. This was a really helpful intro to someone like me who doesn’t have a great deal of technical knowledge
Is there a brand with a cheaper way to hang the frame than the $225 of the Waldon? Preferably with the ability to upload new pictures from an app

Am I right in thinking that these frames will link to my apple account and display my entire photo library without uploading them into the app?
I successfully installed the Carver. I used my smartphone. When I clicked on the A on top corner, I didn't see my home page. Can you help me?
Do need a computer to use this or is an iPhone capable of downloading the photos?
@ogadlogadl490 You can do everything from an iPhone. These are extremely simple to set up and use. They really did a terrific job with the interface.
@@abtelectronics TY for the quick response, will watch some more of your videos in the background of life to support.
Do you need to use WiFi when uploading photos from iPhone or can I simply do it over my existing data plan? I’m asking because I don’t have WiFi availability where I live.
Would I be able to upload my photos from Google Photos?
...not even a short walk through on how to operate them (?) - curious if the slidebar, etc. operates the same

Hi. Are they all shiny screens? Or are any of them matte?

@@abtelectronics awesome thank you! I ended up purchasing and I love it. Was a perfect gift for my wife for Mother’s Day.
If I get to share my baby pictures with my parents can I have multiple frames synced up together and my parents don’t have to mess with it

Can I upload my pictures from my computer? I have higher quality pictures on my computer.
