PixWatch for Google Photos

While you can actually view your Google Photos on the Apple TV, it’s not worth the $ as the photos are badly low res versions, it asks whether you want to view a slideshow every single time, and there’s no way to just browse the photos with the left/right controls on the remote. Poor experience.

don’t download

Code doesn’t work

It’s a faulty app right out of the box. It does not play any video although you can see your video. You can’t thumb through pictures. This is the result of an app on a three figure budget.

It does not allow you to see other albums you have created…

This app’s listing is misleading. It states that Google Photos albums can be viewed on the Apple TV, but when I got everything set up and going, the only option was for “All Pictures.” There was no other options for anything else, including albums. That was the whole reason I paid the $1.99, was to be able to view just the pictures in one particular album and be able to show only those pictures to family and friends. Fix the issue and put an option for albums on your app, or don’t even have the app!!
