I love the frame. We got one for my mom awhile back and she has loved it for the last four years. I was surprised when I found one from another company that would play short videos, as her original frame would not.
Now for the important part: Mom has Alzheimer’s and needs notes to remind her of things - even the usual stuff like “I’m at the store and will be back by 5 pm” kind of things. I was finding that if I told her verbally, she would immediately forget. And I needed a frame that I could both ADD and DELETE notes and pictures remotely. I tried it with another company’s frame and it just couldn’t handle our needs.
The new Aura not only allows remote delete, it handles videos as well. So it sits on the desk next to mom’s chair and rotates through her day’s notes as well as a couple of pictures and a short video to hold her interest in the frame. It’s the perfect solution and keeps her feeling in control of her life, in spite of needing help with the little stuff.
Its the best digital frame I have owned. Excellent quality, easy to upload, easy to have family upload directly, great scale and capacity. And its a great way to enjoy the thousands of pictures we have each day. We are giving them this year as Christmas gifts. Highly recommend. Anyone would love to get this.
I purchased this for my husband 40th birthday. We spend our days taking pics of our family but barely look at all those memories. First, the look of the frame is very sleek and minimal - exactly what I was looking for. The best about this frame is how easy it is for any one in the family to add photos to it. Also, I have no idea when I ordered, but it features videos too, which is awesome. I used to think digital frames were not great both because of their look and the fact that you needed to manually upload pictures with a cable or the like, but this is a different, upgraded product. Also very fast shipping and nice / classy packaging. Totally recommend!
The touch slide at the top of the frame is very difficult to use. My mother in her 90s can not use it so she unplugs the frame from its cord to turn it on and off. Basically there should just be a simple power on/off button
This frame is beautiful and a snap to set up. I added photos ahead of time, so when my mom opened her present it displayed the photos immediately. I can add photos quickly, uploading them to the app or directly from my phone’s Photos app. Very pleased, I intend to order more!
It’s been excellent. First bought an aura frame a year ago for my Mom for Christmas- it’s a great way to share moments with her from several states away. This year, we decided to get one for ourselves- We have our first child on the way and thought this would be a great prompt to share stories with them. It’s already up and running and we’re loving reliving the moments even before she arrives.
Aura was very easy to install and to add photos. Now as soon as I take pictures,I transfer them to my frame and I love seeing the rotation of pictures. Sometimes I just stand in front of the frame and watch the pictures go by. I love this frame so much!
