Your photos, beautifully displayed
Easy Photo Player streams your Google Photos library straight to your TV — at full resolution, with smooth transitions, on any modern Smart TV. No uploading, no extra hardware, no cables.
Set up in under five minutes
Open the app on your TV, enter the six-character code on easyphotoplayer.com/link, and pick the photos you want to display. That's it. The TV starts playing immediately.
Plays continuously, even unattended
Photo URLs from Google Photos expire every 60 minutes. Easy Photo Player refreshes them automatically in the background, so the slideshow keeps running for days without intervention.
Why Easy Photo Player
Built privacy-first with the official Google Photos Picker API. We never store your photos — only temporary, auto-expiring URLs. Your library stays where it belongs: in your Google account.
Privacy by design
We only see the photos you explicitly pick. Your full library is never exposed.

Truly hands-off
Auto-refresh keeps photos playing without manual intervention. Set it up once, enjoy for weeks.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Easy Photo Player free?
Yes — the free plan gives you 10 photo views per day on 1 TV. Paid plans raise the daily quota: Basic (€4.99/month) is 500 views/day, Pro (€9.99/month) is 1000 views/day and up to 5 TVs.
Which TVs are supported?
Samsung Smart TV (Tizen 2017 or newer), LG Smart TV (webOS 4 or newer), and Android TV (Sony, Hisense, TCL, Nvidia Shield, Chromecast with Google TV, and others). The Samsung version is currently US-only; LG is in Content Store QA review; Android TV is available globally on Google Play.
Will my Google Photos library be uploaded somewhere?
No. Easy Photo Player uses the official Google Photos Picker API to stream your photos directly from Google Photos. We never download, copy, or store your photos. Your photos remain in your Google account.
Why does Google Photos need to be re-selected every 7 days?
The Google Photos Picker API has a 7-day session limit set by Google for privacy reasons. We refresh photo URLs every 50 minutes in the background, but every 7 days you need to re-select photos on the web app — it takes 30 seconds.
Can I use Easy Photo Player on multiple TVs?
Yes — the Pro plan (€9.99/month) supports up to 5 linked TVs on one Google account. Useful for setting up living room, bedroom, and kitchen TVs as a coordinated photo display.
How do I cancel my subscription?
You can cancel anytime from the Billing page. Your plan stays active until the end of the current billing period — there is no early-cancellation fee.
What happens if Google Photos is down or I disconnect Google?
If Google Photos is temporarily unavailable, the TV shows the last cached photos until URLs refresh. If you disconnect your Google account, the TV shows a re-link prompt and you can reconnect any time.
Are my photos safe — can anyone see them?
Only you and the TV linked to your account see your photos. We use HTTPS for all transfers, encrypt all stored data, and never share Google data with third parties or use it for advertising.
