TVI used to be able to add new photos to the Frame TV but now I can't... The option was greyed out for me without explanation...

TVAnother question for people: do you have a separate WiFi network for 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz? I have a combined Orbi 2.4 and 5. I’ve seen problems with this before on other devices such as smart switches or plugs.

TVI was also very conscious of this, as I've also experienced problems like that before, and particularly after I was getting the note about connecting to the same network on my Android device. Note that with a combined network, it is actually two different networks with the same name, and the device chooses the one that's most strong and/or compatible. Because of this, there have been times where I've uncombined the networks or turned one off entirely for troubleshooting. Didn't help here.
But I'm done futzing with this thing: I'm resigned to just loading up images on a USB drive on my laptop, and plugging it into the main unit. It works, but so much for a more convenient, premium experience.

TVThanks for verifying that. I figured the same thing.
I just wrote Samsung support about the issue to see what I’d get back and they literally replied within 5 minutes. Not sure if that’s good or bad 😂
“I would like to inform you that the issue of uploading photos in art mode on iPhones is currently a known issue and is being investigated.
Unfortunately, there is no ETA on a fix for the issue. In the meantime, confirm if you are able to access the art mode directly from the TV and upload photos via USB.”

TVI am having the exact same issue — tv & app are all up to date .. have you found a solution? This is the reason we purchased this tv in the first place

TVAlan I gave up on the app. What I did is loading the images/ photos into a USB thumb drive and plug the thumb drive in to upload the photos. That works for now even though it's more troublesome

TVI have been having this very same issue for MONTHS now. We have tried re-installing and nothing has worked. I came to this thread hoping to find a solution, only to be disappointed ☹️

TVYup. The only thing that works at the moment is a USB stick. Once you get the photos on the stick though it’s really easy. I was kind of hoping it would see the usb drive on my network somehow.

TVI just downloaded my art to the USB like others suggested. It works! It's a pain in the A, but I finally have my Christmas scene on my Frame TV. I did EVERYTHING & plugging in the usb directly to the box is the only thing that works. At least there is a temporary solution. This is very disappointing to pay this much $ for a TV that markets itself to convert your TV into art & for it to take HOURS to get it to work.
