Present your photos as framed art
Frame TV Pics is an iPhone app that helps you turn your photographs and artwork into gallery-style pieces for display on a Samsung Frame TV. The app streamlines resizing, matting, and framing so images appear polished and proportional on the screen, giving your TV an art-gallery look without the manual hassle.
Standout capabilities
- Choose from a wide palette for mats or pick the app’s suggestions after it analyzes the colors in your image.
- Let the app automatically resize and format photos so they fit the Frame TV perfectly.
- Control the simulated lighting direction to create realistic shadows and highlights on the frame and mat.
- Add a subtle “soft” frame effect and stack one or more mats in different sizes for layered presentation.
- Explore ongoing improvements and upcoming features designed to expand creative options.
How it prepares and transfers images
Frame TV Pics performs automatic image scaling and layout adjustments so each file looks its best on the Frame TV’s canvas. You can customize frame and mat styles, accept color recommendations from the app’s analysis, or manually select alternatives. When you’re ready to display your finished piece, the app relies on Samsung’s SmartThings app to transfer images to the TV.
