💬 Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How are photos secured
A: The photo frame has card slots. 5-inch photos can be directly inserted without glue. To prevent them from falling out, you can insert a small piece of filament to secure them
Q: Can it be used without a music box
A: Absolutely! It can be manually rotated without the movement, used as a pure display photo frame
Q: How many photos can it hold
A: It can display multiple 5-inch photos simultaneously, and each side can hold a photo
Note: Due to Z-seam issues, there might be stuttering or abnormal noises. Activating the rotating structure more will significantly improve this
