If you are giving this to someone who 1) does not have a smart cell phone, 2) is open to new technologies, and 3) HAS ASKED TO SEE MORE OF YOUR PICTURES, this is a great choice. Pictures are clear and appear immediately after being uploaded. If your loved one already uses the photo app on a cell phone, this would be redundant.
Last November we gave this as a Birthday Gift to our mother, who is also a grandmother/great grandmother. She couldn’t care less, frankly. At 95, in assisted living, we thought she would want to see family pictures of her six kids and their kids and first great grandchild, but not really. Then for Mother’s Day my sister bought her a similar Facebook electronic frame, and maybe you can talk on it (?)… and Mom has no interest in that, either. She wants people to call her on the phone/visit and then she will ask what she cares about.
Also, the frame took up valuable real estate on the table next to her chair, and had to be plugged in to the same plug as the light, heating pad, Alexa, and hearing aids. When the pictures changed, she could see it out of her peripheral vision, which she did not like as it distracted her from the TV. So, it soon went back in the box it came in.

We have had one for awhile as a gift from a friend and now just purchased one for grandma. It’s straightforward with the set up. Make sure you have wifi of course. Once set up is complete you can have friends add pictures to your frame at random. Easy way to keep up with loved ones. It will flag inappropriate pictures for review as well. My kids like to push the limits…
Buy it, you’ll love it.

I bought the 2 for one price so I can have a frame at home and one in my office. I can’t say enough about them. They are so easy to set up and easy to send pictures to and the best thing is I gave the email address to my kids and they send pictures of the grandbabies and it is easy for them to do they don’t mind filling the frame up because they know how much I love my grandbabies. I would definitely recommend buying this Skylight frame you will not be dissatisfied at all. Another thing is the kids love adding captions to their pictures and they also like being able to see all the photos that I do on the frame. Definitely one of the best purchases I have made in a long time.

Easy to set up and add pictures remotely. There is a subscription fee for premium features so be aware. Worth it though.

Super easy to set up right out of the box, both digitally and physically. The included hardware is very easy to install as a tabletop frame or wall mounted. In terms of how to add calendars, incorporating multiple sources, it could not be easier. This thing effortlessly consolidated 5+ different calendars (kids’ sports teams, work, etc…) by simply copying and pasting URL’s into the app and hitting “sync.” It sounds silly, but I immediately felt de-cluttered and de-stressed. My wife and now have a clear picture (pun intended) of day, weeks, months worth of activities for 3 kids. I’ve recommended this at least 5 times since buying it to our other busy friends. This is a great investment for an busy family!

I’ll start by saying I barely write reviews. Only when something is really good or really bad. This product was the latter. It started off ok…nice looking frame. Very quick set-up. We purchased as a holiday gift for my mother (65 y/o and somewhat tech savy) who lives a plane ride away so we could surprise her with pictures of our family now and then. We really liked the email option. Our kids set-up the custom email address and it was somewhat inappropriate, so I reached out to customer service to see how to delete it and set-up another. It took a day or so, but they got back to me and reset the frame. I thought this was inconvenient that we couldn’t do it ourselves especially since all the uploaded photos on the old address were now removed, but wasn’t that concerned at first.
We started to upload photos to the new address and noticed that the mail icon and timer appeared in the upper right hand corner. It didn’t go away for over two weeks that we had the product. Meaning that it was trying to download and couldn’t. The photos also lagged in spots and I received messages that “ourskylight is not responding”. Also the menu button on the back was not responding at all. Clearly something was wrong. I turned the frame on/off, reset my wifi router, placed the frame by the router, etc, etc. Everything the website said on their troubleshooting section. I even deleted every photo assuming we sent too many than the storage could handle. No luck. I have a home office so it’s not like I had issues on my end with WiFi. There was no actual customer service number to contact, which is the norm these days and fine, but email customer service did’t get back to me for almost a week. I wanted this all set-up for a gift and needed time to return, receive new and set-up in time for Christmas. Thank goodness Amazon stepped in immediately and sent me a shipping label and full refund (even though this was a 3rd party vendor).
As I wasn’t going to make the same mistake twice, I started to do some more research on similar products. There are much better and more economical frames out there. Getting down to the basics:
1. There aren’t a whole lot of “customized” options on here. The settings button is kind of a joke and only lets you select a wifi address or tell you “how it works” email address. No other real settings. You can select a different speed (in seconds) but I noticed it reset from my 5 seconds per frame to 10 seconds. Perhaps part of the original defect. Another review called this a “One Trick Pony” and boy were they right.
2. To delete photos, you have to go to each and do it one at a time. Select…delete. Select…delete. Kind of archaic.
3. Other frames have motion sensor on/off. Nice as this frame requires a hard wired outlet and you would need to manually turn off if this was, say, next to your nightstand and you didn’t want the frame on when you slept.
4. The touchscreen is worse than the first version of whatever touchscreen device rolled out. Slow, pressure sensitivity was terrible, etc. Again archaic.
5. Does not play video. Many of them don’t and the ones that do are more expensive. But just saying don’t buy if you want to play video.
In short, this was one of the more expensive frames out there. The lack of features, seemingly “old fashioned” tech and poor customer service makes this a hard pass for me. That is on top of the fact that mine came defective. I’ll say they did finally get back to me on how to return for a refund, but too late for me.
I’m hoping I have better results with NixPlay.

It is a devise that is easy to set up and maintain. I placed my Skylight in a location that my wife and I pass during the day. The “New Picture” notification is so neat. When a new photo arrives, we are notified and can stop and activate the picture. So much fun. We hear each other laugh during the day and know that another picture has arrived.

We live on the other side of the world from our friends and family; this is an amazing way to feel connected. It was easy to set up and even easier to share the link with family and friends!! I highly recommend this – and have done our family and friends.

I can’t express how much this has changed my life. Having a universal place for a calendar and a chore list for my family of five has been an amazing way to share the workload at home. Everybody knows what’s going on. Everybody knows what they need to do. It has made a world of difference in our household.

Bought this for Father’s Day. Was easy to set up and the kids love looking at old photos
