From unboxing to your first photo in under 3 minutes — no technical skills, no complicated menus, no hassle.
Unbox, connect to Wi-Fi, and receive your first photo. That's the entire setup process — no technician, no IT department needed.
Take the frame out of its box, unfold the stand and plug in the power cable. Position it wherever you'd like — on a shelf, a sideboard, a bedside table.
Select your Wi-Fi network from the on-screen menu using the remote control. A unique @mypixstar.com address is created automatically for your frame.
Email a photo to the frame's address. It appears on screen in seconds. That's it — setup is complete. The recipient never needs to touch a setting again.
Configure the frame at home first, including Wi-Fi and initial photos. You can then manage everything remotely — so the recipient never has to configure anything themselves.
