Once you've loaded your frame with all your favorite photos and videos, you can actually browse and display them without needing an internet connection. Plus, if you prefer, you can also load your photos and videos using an SD card or USB drive. That being said, there are a few features that do require a working WiFi connection, such as sending new photos and videos to your frame from different locations, receiving important software updates, and managing your frame's connections. But not to worry, as long as you have a connection, PhotoSpring is ready to keep your memories at your fingertips, no matter where you are!
