I love the frame and the ease of getting pictures loaded. But trying to get my subscription renewed has been hell. Many emails back and forth asking for the same information. The app wanted me to renew through apple which I did and got charged but it did not renew with Nixplay. So now they are saying I have to wait until the subscription cancels and then try to renew it. That is just crazy. The emails say to just try and rewew on the site and the chat says to renew on the app. So I wish someone would call me and tell me what is going on. Yes I have requested a call back over a month ago. I have the plus plan which says your can request a call back. Very dissatisfied with customer service.

Joe the customer service rep was very timely on my initial request. Upon identifying further steps were required, the directions provided were clear and concise. After submitting the information needed, the issue was solved and made my day!

We encountered a challenging issue attempting to upload old photos from an old Nix Play Frame and install to a new frame. The technical support that we received from Martin (Nix Play) was stellar. He patiently guided us through the process, and we had great success saving these cherished family photos.

Excellent customer service by email

My recent experience by email with Nixplay customer service department to address my cord problem on my frame could not have turned out better! I’m so impressed with Cy and his team of agents! Very prompt response, excellent solutions, generous repair or replacement option. That’s what I call customer service!! Each time I emailed them I knew they were reading and listening to my situation. I won’t hesitate to email them again for anything! Thank you Cy !!

Do Not Buy. Better Options are Now Available

Nixplay used to be an excellent digital photo frame platform, but the current business model has seriously degraded the experience.

The shift to a subscription-based cloud storage model feels punitive, especially for long-time users. The free tier is capped at just 500 MB, which is reached almost immediately when sharing family photos. This is not a technical limitation. It is a conversion tactic that interrupts normal use and pressures users into paying simply to restore functionality that previously worked.

Storage limits are confusing and poorly explained. There is a cloud storage cap tied to the account and a separate per-frame photo limit that looks like available capacity but cannot be used if the cloud quota is full. This makes the dashboard misleading and leaves users unsure why photos fail to appear.

Family sharing is unreliable under the new model. When a recipient has reached their storage limit, photos often fail silently. The sender is not notified, so families only discover the issue when someone says they never received the photo. This is especially frustrating when frames are used across continents.

Legacy users are particularly affected. Accounts that were created before subscriptions existed are now constrained without a clear migration path. Photos that already exist may remain visible, but adding new photos or sharing with relatives becomes blocked unless a subscription is purchased.

Overall, the product no longer feels aligned with its original purpose of simple family photo sharing. Competing platforms now offer clearer pricing, no subscriptions, or more transparent storage models at lower total cost. Nixplay appears to be relying on user lock-in and emotional pressure rather than product value.

I would not recommend Nixplay to new buyers, and existing users should seriously evaluate alternatives before investing further.

Follow the instructions

I have been a user of the Nixplay frame for years but never joined using the annual membership. When I finally got it, I didn't see the small print that said "activate link sent to email on file". So it was totally "Operator Error". Thankfully Par got everything working!

I have three frames and albums are missing

I have three frames: two for myself and one for a sister. I'm the only person who has access to the uploading of photos. I just lost my third album. All of my friends' photos are gone. Two other albums were lost last year. I contacted the company and they never found a glitch or my lost albums. Now with a third one gone, I'm at a loss. Does anyone else have this problem? I won't buy another frame from them or ever recommend this company.

I love this Nixplay frame as I could easily upload my favorite pictures using the app that I have downloaded online. Now we cannot stop looking and staring at it in our living room!!! It is very easy to use, it connects quickly to the internet and no issues with it turned on for 24 hours in the living room.

I am furious with Nixplay for unilaterally changing their storage policy. They advertised as unlimited when we purchased the frames. We were very happy customers and then in 2025 all of a sudden the photos I had been sharing with family were locked behind a paywall. I cannot send any new photos without paying for a subscription and several previously sent and available photos are now no longer available. We paid for an “unlimited” frame and now that the grandparents have fallen in love with it they are being asked to pay too. The worst part is my mom did pay for the upgrade subscription but I don’t even have a frame and I have to pay too to send her new photos. Such a scam and I am so disappointed.
