Is the Jeemak digital photo frame any good?<\/h2>

While Jeemak digital photo frame seems like a solid choice on paper, they’re not the best digital frame for the money. Several issues pop up under closer inspections, including the glossy (hard to see) display, a slow and fingerprint-prone touchscreen, and very limited Wi-Fi & cloud functionality.Jeemak Wi-Fi digital picture frames <\/a>use a 3rd party mobile app called the Frameo app. It\u2019s used by several Chinese and new digital frame brands on the market. While it\u2019s not the worst app out there, it\u2019s certainly not the best. For instance, you can only send 9 pictures at a time with the Frameo app \u2013 paling in comparison with the best digital frame mobile apps like the Pix-Star Snap (send 250 photos to several frames at the same time).The Jeemak digital frame doesn\u2019t offer a lot of important features like remote configuration, web albums, a motion sensor, USB support, playing slideshows directly from USB\/SD cards<\/a>, video playback, music over slideshows, cloud storage, online access, a web dashboard, and more.Furthermore, the 16:9 aspect ratio isn\u2019t well suited to the photos we take on our modern smartphones (usually their pictures are in 4:3). This means you\u2019ll have to manually select pictures in slideshows and set them to \u201cFill the screen\u201d. This can be a massive time sink when viewing thousands of photos in slideshows.In summary, the Jeemak digital photo frame is relatively versatile but doesn\u2019t offer the value you get from top digital frames like the Pix-Star. Pix-Star offers more features, better functionality for families and elderly users, and a more immersive viewing experience with a high level of customizability.<\/p> <\/div>

Does the Jeemak digital photo frame have a mobile app?<\/h2>

The Jeemak digital photo frame uses a 3rd party mobile app called Frameo. Jeemak doesn\u2019t have its in-house mobile app. This is quite common among newer Chinese brands. We don\u2019t usually recommend this method as the Frameo mobile app is very limited compared to what competing mobile apps such as the Pix-Star Snap can do.For example, the Pix-Star Snap mobile app<\/a> lets you send up to 250 photos to several Pix-Star frames at the same time. The Frameo mobile app only lets you send around 10 photos to one frame at a time.Pix-Star\u2019s mobile app lets you send 2-minute clips and audio recordings right from your phone\u2019s gallery (for videos); whereas Frameo\u2019s app only lets you send 15-second video clips.The Frameo app<\/a> \u2013 while better than nothing \u2013 doesn\u2019t compete well with digital frames that have their mobile app. In Pix-Star\u2019s case, they have full control over the features, functions, and support. If you have issues, you can contact Pix-Star and they\u2019ll help you out. In Jeemak\u2019s case, you have two sources of potential troubles \u2013 and are less likely to get them resolved in a streamlined manner.<\/p> <\/div>

How to send photos to the Jeemak digital photo frame without Wi-Fi?<\/h2>

To send photos to the Jeemak digital photo frame without using Wi-Fi, you need to use a supported SD card that\u2019s less than 8GB. While some have reported that SD cards larger than 8GB occasionally work, it\u2019s your best bet.Jeemak digital photo frames do not support USB sticks, instead offering a USB type-B connector. You can use this to connect directly to your computer to drag and drop photos to its internal storage. Sadly, this method is plagued by bugs and connectivity\/software issues.Jeemak\u2019s digital frames also don\u2019t support plug & play with connected SD cards. This means that you cannot play slideshows directly from an inserted SD card. Instead, you need to import photos to the digital frame’s internal storage<\/a> manually. Unfortunately, you have to manually select which photos to add (one by one), which can be tiresome when importing hundreds\/thousands of photos.P.S. You can\u2019t import videos via SD card or the USB connector yet \u2013 though this may be something they add in the future.<\/p> <\/div>

Can the Jeemak digital photo frame play slideshows directly from a USB?<\/h2>

Jeemak digital photo frames do not support plug & play slideshows from a connected USB or SD card. You cannot play slideshows directly from USB or SD cards without first importing them to Jeemak\u2019s internal storage.Jeemak\u2019s frames don\u2019t have a standard USB slot either. While there is a type-B USB connector, it\u2019s for connecting the Jeemak digital frame to a computer to transfer photos. There is no way to connect a USB drive or mini-USB to the Jeemak frame.Most competing digital frames support plug & play. For example, Pix-Star\u2019s digital frame<\/a> doesn\u2019t restrict the maximum size of supported USB\/SD card and allow plug & play. This gives you virtually unlimited storage space for your photos, videos, and audio files as you don\u2019t need to rely solely on the 8GB local storage.<\/p> <\/div>

Can I play videos on my Jeemak digital photo frame?<\/h2>

The Jeemak digital photo frame can only play short 15-second video clips. It\u2019s worth noting that, unlike other popular digital frames, you can\u2019t include these videos in slideshows<\/a> alongside photos. Videos and photos are saved to different categories in Jeemak\u2019s local storage and can\u2019t mix in slideshows.The only way to send video clips to the Jeemak digital photo frame is via the Frameo mobile app. It\u2019s a 3rd party app that several new brands (particularly Chinese brands) use as they don\u2019t have their custom mobile app.Jeemak digital photo frames don\u2019t support sending videos to internal storage via USB drives or SD cards. Additionally, you can\u2019t use either of these methods to load audio files\/recordings to the Jeemak digital frame.<\/p> <\/div>

Does the Jeemak digital photo frame use a touchscreen?<\/h2>

Yes, the Jeemak digital photo frame uses a touchscreen display to navigate slideshows, adjust settings, etc. There is no remote controller or on-frame button controls. You can only make changes and navigate slideshows using the touch display.Unfortunately, the Jeemak digital photo frame has a very glossy display. Its high reflectivity makes the display hard to see in a well-lit room or from an angle. Glossy displays are terrible when combined with touchscreen controls. Fingerprints show easily and need to be constantly wiped away.We rarely recommend touchscreen digital picture frames<\/a> due to their poor durability and often sub-par quality. Touchscreen displays are more expensive, especially for digital frame displays larger than 7 or 8-inches.The higher cost leads to other more important features being sacrificed to leave room for the touch interface. It\u2019s rarely worth it and value for money usually falls short of what non-touch premium digital photo frames offer.<\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
