Shuffle Photos

I've looked & looked for answers but nothing. Does anyone with a cellphone know the answer.

What is called a photo hub or where your camera shots are kept on your phone? You can set the phone on Shuffle Photos or use a single photo if you want to see it (them) when you open your main menu screen.

After all that, I only want to find out how much data is used to shuffle photos constantly. I have a great plan of 4GB per month but I want to know if it's worth shuffling the pictures or not.

If the photos are yours and on your phone they shouldn't use any data, they will be shuffled by an app.

However I am not sure what you mean by a Photo Hub.

Thanks Bruce that's the term I come across when looking at Phone Instructions. I guess its just the camera album where your phone photos sit. You decide whether to load them into the cloud or share them or whatever.

Re: Shuffle Photos

I think you would be better to read the instruction manual for your phone.
It sounds to me like you want to make a slide show of the photos on your phone.

Re: Shuffle Photos

No no its not quite that & besides there's nothing in the instruction manual. The last thing they would tell you too is the 'amount' of data you'd be having to use.

Now there's a surprise One of the things which really infuriates me about modern electronic devices is the terrible 'user instructions' generally written in poor English, never cover the subject you want, never explain the thinking behind the actions. Awful, has completely put me off trying to keep up with new devices and anyway I can do without a lot of the new stuff anyway.
