Description: I used ScreenCloud at my dad's 80th birthday, and whilst setup was brilliantly simple, it reminded me how much work we still have to do on usability. Watching family members engage with old photos on screen was magical, but I was still fiddling with too many buttons. This is where AI will really help.

So I've seen influencers do videos in their car as they're driving along it's probably a bit of a flex because they've got a nice car but this one's from 2007 and it's full of junk and dog hair from Fergus. Anyway I'm just driving from back from my dad's 80th birthday party where obviously I used ScreenCloud as part of the party and it was really good it worked really well a few really good observations came from it firstly setting it up was dead easy ScreenCloud OS I use ScreenCloud OS and it really was just so simple so we've done a great job there you know doing that I think also shout out to Casey on our success team he built a really nice little workflow and you'll see examples of that where people could upload images on a Google form with a message and that pushed out to the screen using OneDrive which was really nice so people like that that was fun and then I think probably the biggest thing as well was just the impact it had and I'll put a video in here as well you can see like members of my family looking at old pictures from my mum and dad's wedding day when they were growing up as kids you know holidays memories of my grandparents who've passed now and it was incredible to see the power of the screen for triggering memories and thoughts and that was really beautiful so they're really proud to be able to use a product to kind of make these little moments happen where it didn't go so well is I still think if I'm honest and as much as I love our product it's still too difficult to use I was fiddling away with my laptop you know at the end of the table trying to get just quite basic things really just trying to get a gallery of images up there that people could add to and things like that and I think we've done a good job with ScreenCloud Studio and things like that overall but it's still too fiddly there's still too many buttons to click and I imagine there's the same for everyone in our industry too so yeah I think this is where you know AI is definitely g
