Aura Digital Photo Frames Will Keep Auto-Syncing with Google Photos After All

Good news for Aura digital photo frame owners! After initially announcing that auto-sync with Google Photos would be discontinued, Aura has now confirmed that the feature will continue to work. The change comes as Google updates its API policies, restricting apps from accessing entire photo libraries. While other brands like Cozyla may still be affected, Aura is working directly with Google to maintain the feature. “While we previously announced that this feature will be removed, it will now continue,” said Aura spokesperson Jenisse Curry. Syncing will remain seamless for now, and Aura promises to provide more details as needed. This reversal is welcome news for users who rely on auto-sync to effortlessly share memories with loved ones.

Key Points:

• Aura photo frames will continue to auto-sync with Google Photos despite Google’s API changes.
• Google’s policy updates restricting app access to entire photo libraries take effect on March 31st.
• Initially, Aura had stated that auto-sync would end on March 17th, requiring users to manually update photos.
• Aura worked with Google to maintain the feature, ensuring no action is needed from current frame owners.
• Other brands like Cozyla may still be affected—no comment from Cozyla yet.
• Google explains that the API update is aimed at enhancing user privacy but includes special allowances for digital photo frames.

For now, Aura users can relax—your favorite digital photo memories will keep flowing automatically! Stay tuned for any additional instructions Aura may release closer to the end of March. 🎞️
