Diashow-Maker SlideFlow TV

App funktioniert im Grundsatz ganz gut. Was allerdings nicht funktioniert ist das Hinzufügen eigener Musik aus iTunes. Wie geht das? Die App lädt nichts.

I have an iPad Pro 10.5 2017. From a news article I came to the SlideFlow app. But I was negatively surprised, because I have tried out the app and neither music works (nothing to hear) or can be selected from a network or local folder nor the order of the pictures included in the slide show can be defined or changed! The order always is the same as it is in your pictures folder/album... Because nobody should take a fee for uncomplete software, I will uninstall the app and will take a look at it again next year... ;-)

Endlich kann ich Fotos direkt von meinem iPhone streamen, ohne die hochladen/übertragen zu müssen. Hat super funktioniert.

BAD

I have been a photographer for over 50 years. I have a Mac mini with a nice 27” Lenovo monitor at the end my desk at the end of our dining room. I wanted a simple program to run ongoing slide shows so that whenever we are at the dinner table, we can enjoy all kinds of photos. This program does exactly what I wanted. No more and no less. In addition to showing the slides it has a feature you can turn on and off the zooms into faces of photos with people. You can also play music with your slide shows.

No Editing!

The app does send a slideshow to my TV. However, once started there is no way to fast forward or pause or rewind. The video timeline on my iPad does not sync with the actual slideshow, so if I rewind on my tablet nothing happens on the TV. Also, the app doesn’t send images to the TV, it sends a video of images. The app takes the images you add to a slideshow and processes them into a video, which takes a while. Not for last-minute presentations. I also wish the slideshow could tell what resolution/size my original images are so it doesn’t blow up lower resolution images so large. I hates me a pixelated image, but sometimes that’s all I can get from my sources.

I downloaded it and had a slideshow on my TV in less than ten minutes. Fun, fast and easy! Just what I was looking for!

Nice little app. But certainly not perfect. It has a couple of drawbacks. First, there doesn't seem to be any way to sync the song library with the playlists on my iPad or iphone, so some songs are not there. Second, and this is a big one, Apparently there is no way to save a slideshow once you make it. When you are using 100 or 200 slides in a slides how like I am, This means you must go through the entire process of setting up a slideshow every time you want to use it. Very time consuming.
