Meural - Smart WiFi Photo Frame, for Photography, Art & NFTs - 13.5”x7.5” - Gray

This frame is nice when it is working and for what it works as. You can't email it photos, and the app isn't the easiest to use, or program for a second phone, but it does look good working. The frame can be stationed horizontal or vertical, and it does know what position it is in. Then you have the choice of only seeing photos taken in the position the frame is in or showing both. The Con is that if you choose both, the photos that are in the wrong position will be oddly truncated, not shrunk. The pro is that if you have it set to showing only the position the frame is situated, you can change the photo set being displayed merely by turning the frame 90 degrees. Overall I liked it, except we're still trying to get another phone to run the app with the frame so my brother can get photos on it too.

this device is pretty difficult to use. First, there is no usb or similar input to just upload photos, so you have to individually upload them from a phone. Then the photos are somehow grouped into categories, so you end up uploading the photos to category A when you want it in category B. This makes it difficult to invite someone to share a photo onto the device because it goes into some other category which you are not using, so you have the change the grouping to see it, but then you are not seeing the other photos you already put on.

I am so disappointed in this product-I had read many good reviews about this device and I was really looking forward to receiving it and having it work as advertised, but I had nothing but problems with this from the moment I set it up-and sadly, I will be returning this product ASAP. I could not get it to display any of my pictures at all-it only would display the built in stock pictures. I did follow the set-up directions closely, I had downloaded the Meural app prior to powering up the product. Those stock pictures displayed very nice on the screen, but try as I might, I could not make this product do the one specific thing that I purchased it for-to display my pictures that I have on my phone! I tried to use the Meural app to control the product-and each time I opened the app, it would just shut down, it would “quit”. Not only that, but now I can’t even get rid of this app on my phone, it doesn’t want to delete! The “hand gesture” control method for this product was awkward and difficult to use, it would only respond after multiple attempts to make it respond. I wish that the screen was a “touch-screen”-that would have been helpful for “ease of use and control”. The device display was supposed to “darken down” when the lights in the room that it was in were turned off-that wouldn’t work either. I tried so many times to get this product to display pictures from my phone-no matter what I did, I just couldn’t make it work, and the product was on the same home WiFi network that my phone is on as I was trying to do this-and I do not have an older phone, I have an iPhone 11 Pro with many pictures on it. I really tried many times to make this product work as advertised-because I really wanted it to work, I did not want to have to return it, but after doing everything that I could think of to make it work-I finally had to give up and pack everything back up to return it! Total frustration, total disappointment!! I am not at all one to typically write negative reviews unless truly necessary, but I am just reporting the very difficult and frustrating experience that I had with this one particular product, and I am being honest about my particular experience with this. I really wish this had worked out better, but it just didn’t work out at all.

This is our 3rd Meural frame (we have two 27" original Canvas). Great quality image, easy to use app. Expensive, but you get what you pay for. Highly recommended.

This picture frame was beyond expectations. It is easily set up and pictures are wonderful quality

It would be easy to go into specifics like display quality, unreal how realistic the photos look, and how easy it is to use... but let's just say it's money well spent and go get yourself one.

Very cool picture frame that allows you to add a subscription for digitalized artwork, in addition to adding your own photos. The picture quality is beautiful, and it can be easily controlled via an app. I wish it was a bit thicker, but overall I think it was an excellent purchase.

There needs to be a rechargeable battery so it can be hung on the wall.
