GBNixplay frames orientation problem On the reporting of either CNet or Wired, I don't remember which, I purchased 4 of their frames for myself and family members. The most recent purchase, in my home, displays correctly. However, the orientations of the photos in the other 3 sometimes show correctly (landscape/portrait) and sometimes not. I've been going crazy going on the website, trying to adjust these. No more phone tech support, as previous. However, the tech support person that I was chatting with finally mentioned something that may illuminate the problem, but makes no sense. She said that some of the frames have portrait orientations and some have landscape orientations. My latest one has both. This is ridiculous. You don't take pictures with the type of frame in mind. It should be a software issue, not a hardware issue. I also don't recall seeing this information in the descriptions of the frames. Don't buy these unless you buy one of the most recent frames. The others are only about a year old and problematic.

CAAn absolute bait & switch scam for their subscription An absolute bait & switch scam that suddenly limits you to 100 images unless you subscribe. I have had several playlists since I bought it while it was advertised over the holiday season until a app update for "fixing bugs" came out that cut me off completely. I cannot believe companies can get away with dishonest operations. Stick with other products where you can get your money's worth and probably has a better app.

GBBait and switch, shame on Nixplay Like many others posting here, although I have had issues with their randomizer showing some photos but skipping others, I was recommending the product because there was no other product that did what I wanted. And now, they change the rules, suddenly you have to pay their monthly fee to get the feature that I bought it for in the first place, which was then free. Very poor decision.

GBA monthly subscription to use a photo frame I bought my frame a couple of years ago having read good reviews on various websites. I was particularly attracted to its ability to link to Google photos and update playlists dynamically. In May 2023 the ironically named Nick Palfreeman at Nixplay wrote to advise that I will need to pay a monthly fee for the rest of my life in order to continue using this feature. Needless to say, Nick is no pal of mine and he won't be getting a penny from me. Bought a Google Hub Max instead. Goodbye Nixplay.

GBHopeless Bought two Nixplay frames, gave one as a gift. The one I kept only showed the same 30 or so photos (out of 500). When I asked Nixplay support how to fix, the advice I was given left me unable to see ANY photos. The screen now just says 'Add Photos from your Mobile'. I have tried everything - disconnecting / reconnecting, resyncing, enabling photos / disabling - nothing works. Nixplay's customer service has been dreadful, with very poor quality advice which so far has only made things worse. I really hope the frame I gave as a gift has not had the same problems.
