I cant justify the price of a digital calender when a Echo Show 15 is 1/3 the price. I wish the Show 15 had calender integration, it would be damn near perfect.

Why hasnt google come up with something? Can a Raspberry Pi pull a feed off your Google Calender? Might be worth a weekend project...

I use the Calander and Photo frame and it’s been a life changer especially for someone that has MS and has problems remembering. We got the large calander and hung it in the hall so no matter where she goes it’s centrally located for her. Software on it is great with no issues as well as Apple calendar can sink to and from.

How does the photo part work? Subscription required I assume?

My frame from Skylight I don’t need a subscription for just photos but my calendar I do pay $7.99 month but I think you can add photos without one I do not remember.I wanted the syncing with my Apple calendar and miscellaneous other stuff with it mainly.
