How to Send Photos to a Digital Photo Frame (From Anywhere)

Nukebox

The whole point of a WiFi photo frame is that filling it should take seconds — from your sofa or from another continent. Here's exactly how it works on a Nukebox frame running NukeOS.

Sending from your phone (10 seconds)

  1. Open the free NukeOS app (iPhone or Android).
  2. Pick the frame — you can be invited to several: parents', in-laws', your own.
  3. Select photos (or a short video), add a caption if you like — “Goa, day 2!” — and tap send.

The photos arrive on the frame over WiFi within seconds, announced with a gentle chime, and join the slideshow automatically — auto-cropped and colour-balanced to fill the screen with no black bars.

Sending from another city or country

Exactly the same steps. Distance doesn't matter: an aunt in Toronto and a brother in Bengaluru can both send to the same frame in Delhi. Photos travel encrypted from phone to frame, and only people you've invited can send — you can remove anyone's access at any time.

Sending in bulk

Batch-send a whole event at once — a birthday, a trip. Frames store about 15,000 photos (30,000 on the Gallery 22), so you will not run out.

What if the frame is offline or asleep?

Send anyway. Photos are delivered when the frame wakes or reconnects, and everything already on the frame keeps playing without internet.

Do I need a subscription?

No. Sharing, albums, captions and updates are free forever. An optional NukeOS+ tier adds cloud backup and longer videos — every frame works fully without it. More in the FAQ.
