Now it is available on my Mac Studio and I will use it often. This functionality should have been added to Photos a long time ago. The Mac version can't see smart albums like the IMac version can. This would be a welcome fix. A suggestion, I can find no app that properly displays panoramas. When this app or any detects a panorama it should fit the smaller dimension to the display and then smoothly scroll Ken Burns style across the long dimension.

Best Slideshow Shuffler app!

This ...When iOS 8 was released, Apple, for some reason, decided to remove the ability to shuffle photos during slideshow, and the feature has not returned since. This app gives you the shuffled slideshows back, and it does it beautifully! I love the extra customization we can get with the slideshows, such image backgrounds, a list of duration per slide (which are far better than the scrubber the stock photos app provides), the option to have the photos fill the screen. This app is wonderful! The only thing I can suggest for this app, is the option to choose more than one album for the slideshow. And being able to select individual photos like you're able to in the Photos app. A workround would be to create a new album and do it that way. Other than that, excellent app!

I don't know why Apple thought it was a good idea to be able to play a slideshow without being able to play your photos in a random order in Photos. But they did. This app corrects that crucial omission. Also the developer of Random Slideshow is very responsive. I had a small issue with the app not being able to select the photo albums that I synced with my Mac, only albums I created on my iPhone. But after asking about it, it was fixed within a week in the next update. I could not be more satisfied with Random Slideshow! Thank you!

It doesn't remember what album you had selected between launches, so you have to re-choose it every time. It'd be nice if it had the same album selected as last time. Also, it's seeing "Moments" and the like as Albums to choose, so you end up with a LOT of albums to scroll through to find the one you want. They're not all alphabetized, either, so it's a bit of an album hunt. If it could group them, and ensure they're in order, and maybe provide a letter index on the right of the screen to jump to the letter of the alphabet you're looking for, that'd help a lot.

Suggestions: 3) Default to previous selection or to Offer of previous selection. 4) folder picker feels like wasted space/ ancient. 5) allow custom input of slide duration. Thanks

Using this app all I had to do was pick the pictures I wanted. Copy them to an album and sync it with my iPad. I then used an hdmi adapter and this app to show them on a tv screen for family during the holidays Worked great Thank you

I often enjoy having my favorite photos play on my iPad while I do other things, but with a large photo library, it is less than ideal to have the same pictures come up in the same order all the time. Thank you!

This app did the trick for me until I added my latest photos to my master album, bringing it over 20,000 photos. It now consistently locks up after a few minutes of running and freezes on one photo. I realize that the album is very large, but its only going to get bigger! I am now without a working app for my photo slideshow once more.

I have 2,500 family photos in a Photos album. It has to run in random order. Apple killed that feature with iOS 8 but you’ve brought it back. Once again I have an iPad in my kitchen running family photos nonstop in the the order that I like. Thank you!

Nice to have shuffle feature. Still missing something

I use old iPads as photo frames for myself and family and since Apple got rid of the shuffle feature I’ve had to try to “shuffle” my photos myself in the album....I use old iPads as photo frames for myself and family and since Apple got rid of the shuffle feature I’ve had to try to “shuffle” my photos myself in the album. Very time consuming. Only downside to this app is I load short video clips and this doesn’t allow them to play in the slideshow like they do in the photos app. Hopefully you can fix this.
