<p>Picture Frame is a great feature of iOS on iPad that turns the device into a rotating gallery of images. The iPad Picture Frame app defaults to flipping through all images contained in the Photos camera roll album, but you can improve the experience by creating a custom photo album and setting that as the only source for the gallery, here’s how:</p>

<ol>

<li>Tap on “Photos” to open the photos app, then tap on the “Albums” tab</li>

<li>Tap “Edit” and then tap “New Album”, naming it something like “Picture frame”</li>

<li>Tap on each photo you want to show in the picture frame then tap “Done”</li>

<li>Now go back to the iPad home screen and open “Settings”</li>

<li>Tap on “Picture Frame” and select “Albums”, then tap on “Camera Roll” to unselect that, and tap on the newly created “Picture frame” album</li>

<p><img src="http://osxdaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/album-picture-frame-ipad.jpg" alt="Select picture frame album for iPad" title="album-picture-frame-ipad" width="620" height="465" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-28838" /></p>

<li>Exit out of Settings and return to the lock screen, tap on the flower icon to start Picture Frame with the new gallery</li>

</ol>

<p>Now Picture Frame won’t bore viewers with screenshots and embarrass you with bad pictures from the Photo Booth app.</p>
