We have had great success with the Aura Frame Walden 15” electronic frame. This frame is controlled by the Aura Frame app and can accept a year of slides and rotate them daily based on the date of the slides. Please note that if the file date metadata changes during your download, you may have to change the file date (not the file name) within the Aura Frame app.
