This digital photo frame is the best gift I ever gave my family — and it's 50% off for Father's Day
Not to toot my own horn, but I give really good gifts — at least, my friends and family think so. One recent find that wowed the crowd was such a hit that it just might become my secret weapon gift moving forward — especially for the members of my brood who aren't close by, or ones that I send countless photos of my cat to. And FYI, given that we're in the second week of June: It's the perfect gift for all the dads out there. What's "it"? Akimart's Frameo Digital Photo Frame, of course!
The touch-screen frame can be flipped horizontally or vertically and it can easily be hung on a wall.
The Frameo Digital Photo Frame was a gift for my grandparents several months ago, and I didn't expect them to like it as much as they did. For starters, they're not exactly tech-savvy; plus, I couldn't imagine them downloading an app so that they could upload more photos on to the frame. But the Frameo makes it almost comically easy: Prior to gifting it to them, I set it up (it took less than five minutes) and uploaded a few photos myself so they had some in their rotation. Uploading is easy: You just download a free, easy-to-use app, and you can select as many photos as you would like to upload at a time. You can even add notes! Best of all: No subscription charge or hidden fees.
The Frameo allows both photo and video uploads, though we quickly learned that unless you want to hear the family singing "Happy Birthday" over and over again, the sound should be turned off. You can also connect multiple accounts to the same frame, so anyone can send the latest photo of the kids, a video of the pets, or a recent vacation snap. Want to remove a photo from the rotation? Just go to your history, select it and...done!
The best part? It's marked down to just $99 (originally $199). You'll love it, and with nearly 3,000 five-star reviews, you will be in good company.
"What better way to share family life than with this online digital frame," shared a thrilled shopper. "Super easy to manage, I set it up before I gave as a gift to my mom for Christmas. She took it home, plugged it in and connected to her Wi-Fi, and like magic we are sharing photos."
"We bought these as gifts for family members, and one for us, too," related a couple of grandparents. "The setup is easy. The pictures are clear and sharp with great color. We love being able to send pictures to our family's frames. We have a new granddaughter, and how exciting it is to hear a little 'ding' to see a new picture of that sweet little face appear in our frame. With family living on each coast, this is a great way to share pictures."
Have we mentioned that Father's Day is this weekend? "My Dad absolutely loves his frame," shared one fan. "We send him pictures a few times a week with a caption, and he is able to 'like' and comment back on his phone. Even for someone without ANY technological knowledge, they can just enjoy receiving the pics. It's a great way to keep connected to someone far away."
You can add photos and videos in real time — and your loved one will hear a ping once the image arrives.
