I use this app on my Nvidia sheild Android TV to browse the photos and videos stored on my PC and display them on my 60-inch 4k TV via SMB. Has a lot of customization options and can also connect to Dropbox, OneDrive and some other cloud storage services and also supports DLNA/UPnP and a few other protocols and could connect directly to a NAS or media server. Android/Google TVs typically don't have a lot of storage, so this app can help with that.

I've tried several apps like this and like this one the best as it has the right combination of features. The screensaver slideshows, extensive slideshow settings, and ability to connect to web services and local media are ideal. As of July 2021, connecting with Google Photos or Drive does not work on the Chromecast with Google TV device though the author is working on the issue. I have confirmed that the problem does not exist on the Nvidia Shield.

Supposed to randomize the pictures, but it only randomizes the folder, then shows every picture in that folder. Contacted developer and no response.
★★☆☆☆Steve Martin· Jul 11, 2020
The interface is not "beautiful" as advertised. Rather, it's difficult to figure out even after reading the manual. What is a "Laid Back Browser" for anyway? “Buffering...” is the message I see constantly when watching videos, whether the video is on a USB stick in the back of the TV, on a local network drive, or using one of the Cloud providers. I don't get that message with Photo Gallery and Screensaver, though that app is loaded with other issues. This is another Google Play app developed by a weekend developer, rather than something professionally designed, developed, and maintained.

The new "folder browser" leaves huge unused margins on the sides, which absolutely sucks, and makes the old one actually better. One more thing that has often annoyed me enough to avoid using this app is not having a seamless "swipe" option between the pics, you have to swipe from the edge, it isn't very responsive, and it does an annoying click sound. This has been in there for as long as I recall and It's still there. Also, the pricing by module haven't gone anywhere, too.

It works well, but I came across this annoying bug that reset all image sources to default. So basically I had to re add my sources every time I use the app. Update: Dev, here's more details you asked for. I removed all the default sources (2 Flickr and 1 local storage), added my smb share, it connected and loaded images fine, front page showed smb source correctly, then I closed the app and launched it again, the smb source was gone and the default sources showed up. Please fix.
