PicDock
Turn an old Android tablet into a photo & video frame
Turns a spare Android tablet into a photo frame. Reads what you already keep — NAS (SMB), Dropbox, OneDrive, Google Photos, iCloud shared albums — and plays photos and on-device videos with clock and weather. All sources but web upload are free.
Hi Product Hunt — I'm the developer.
I built PicDock for one job: a spare tablet on a shelf, always on, showing photos from wherever you already keep them. Many frame apps want your photos uploaded to their own cloud; PicDock reads the folders you already have.
What it does:
• Reads photo folders you already have: SMB/NAS, Dropbox, OneDrive, Google Photos (via Google's picker), iCloud shared albums and the device itself — several at once in one rotation
• Plays videos stored on the device inside the same slideshow
• Clock and live weather over the photos, a night schedule, and auto-start when you put the tablet on its charger
• Android phones/tablets and Android TV
What it doesn't do: Google Drive isn't supported, and there's no "family sends photos to grandma's frame" pairing — Frameo is better for that.
Pricing: free to install, and every photo source except web upload is free. Extra transitions and styles are Premium; on Android that's monthly, yearly or a one-time lifetime purchase.
(Not related to the macOS app with the same name.)
I'd love feedback — especially from NAS users.
