PhotoShow - Facebook Edition for Android

If you have an Android phone, go get Roxio PhotoShow Facebook Edition, the new app from Roxio available on the Android Market! (Just search for Roxio in the market to find it.) 

PhotoShow Facebook Edition allows you quickly create and publish fun slideshows onto your Facebook wall directly from your phone or tablet. No PhotoShow account necessary. And for right now, it's FREE.

Make sure you're running the latest version of Android 2.2 (or later), and be sure to install Adobe AIR from the Android Market. If you can't find AIR on the market, check the Adobe compatibility page to see if your phone or device should work with AIR.

• Add pictures from your phone, camera, or Facebook account.
• Select an interactive style and play your slideshow, or swipe your photos to view them at your own pace

Use a bar code reader app on your Android phone to go directly to the app using the below image.

 

Have fun!

Your PhotoShows on Google TV

Well, now there's a new way to get your PhotoShows into the living room: Google TV. We recently acquired the Logitech Revue box with Google TV and are happy to report that PhotoShows, for the most part, work pretty well. 

Google TV supports web browsing via the built-in Chrome browser, and it also supports Adobe Flash (which comes installed so you don't have to go through the process). So, we were able to play our PhotoShows just using the standard controls. There's no special interface or application to install. You simply browse to www.photoshow.com, sign in, and play your shows. 

It wasn't quite perfect, though. Shows with video don't play back very well, it seems, so stick to shows with photos only for now.  Also, the frame rate is closer to 8 frames per second, rather than up to 30 on a standard desktop or notebook computer, so transitions and motion can look a little jumpy.

Still, you can play full-screen and even share shows right from the comfort of your sofa. Nice!

 

 

New One-Click Style: Tennis

Show friends and family your net worth with this stylish Tennis style. Your PhotoShow will go with a swing!

iPhone playback support

iPad viewing and sharing of PhotoShows quickly became our favorite new feature, so we decided on the same approach to take advantage of the latest iPhone capabilities. Now on iPhones (running iOS 4) you can truly enjoy a customized experience for viewing, sharing and photo-by-photo browsing of all your favorite PhotoShows!

iPad viewing taken to a new level

We got such great feedback on our iPad slideshow format, we decided to take it to the next level. Now you can watch your favorite PhotoShows in a completely new environment customized for your iPad.

Browse to your favorite PhotoShow to enjoy full-screen viewing, email sharing and photo-by-photo browsing!

Enjoy!!

Watch from iPad

Unless you've had your nose in a good book for the past few months, it's almost inevitable that you've heard about or or have seen someone using the new iPad. We've finally been able to pull our team away from their new toys just long enough to launch a new viewing experience when browsing PhotoShow.com on this revolutionary device.

Just browse to your favorite PhotoShow from the iPad, and you'll be able to watch it in a slideshow format, browse through the pictures that make up your PhotoShow or even save them directly to your photo library.

Enjoy!!
