Visit Aura Frames

Aura Frames are digital picture frames paired with a mobile app for sharing photos and videos from a phone to a frame over WiFi. Uploads are stored on Aura's cloud servers, and the product is sold without a subscription requirement.

The lineup includes the Carver 10", Carver Mat 10", Aspen 12", Walden 15", and the e-paper Aura Ink 13". Frames offer color-calibrated displays that adjust to room lighting, a built-in touch bar or buttons, a built-in speaker, and automatic on/off. The free Aura app handles setup, uploads to one or multiple frames, captions, and inviting others to share directly to a frame; it can also preload content before gifting. Software updates are delivered to frames over time.

Aura Frames are aimed at households and gift buyers who want to share photos and videos with family across distances. Frames are purchased individually, with no subscription or seat-based plan; the app is free.
