Phone/Tablet App good for Digital Scrapbook Page Slide Show

My husband and I are planning on selling our home and going on the road in our 26 foot RV but it creates heartache for my scrapbooking soul.

I love printing up my digital scrapbooks and sharing them with others but there is no room in our RV for 60 pounds of printed scrapbooks. I am looking for a really friendly software app (good for Apple iOS and Android) to use for slide shows. Any suggestions?

I am not looking for something too basic, I do want some bells and whistles and I want the user to be able to 'turn the page' themselves OR run it as a traditional slide show.

I would guess that Power Point would get it done but was hoping for an App that people could load on their mobile devices and view the albums.

Anyone have any thoughts?

Thanks,
Barbara

I'm not ignoring your post... I just can't for the life of me think of a way you can do this. I do know what you mean though... like when I read books online and it's kind of like I'm actually turning a page but it's all built in. smiley
Maybe over the next few days someone will see your post and have some great recommendations. I will also try to talk to my hubs that works in IT and ask him this weekend if he knows of anything you could check out to possibly use. smiley smiley

I'm not sure how helpful I'll be since I don't have any actual app recommendations, rather I have a strategy.

When I'm looking for an app to do a particular thing, I head straight to google. (Seriously, I google everything.)

Depending on your search criteria, you'll usually get direct links to specific apps, or you'll get 'the best slideshow apps of 2020' lists - that's where the fun begins. Look for lists that are recent because you don't want an outdated app. I then install a few apps that look good and play around a bit to see if it does what I want. Because I'm stupidly picky about my apps.

Obviously this method can be quite time consuming (not to mention the download data) but it works for me when I'm looking for something specific.

Thanks for your ideas and suggestions, I will certainly give it a try!

This company isn't exactly what you're looking for, but I'm hoping what they do have gives you a direction to move in. Don't let the link saying "to dvd" scare you, it seems to do more than that. They seem to have several applications to look over

@Amberlee That Movavi does look pretty cool!
Have you played around with it yourself before? If so, Do you by chance know what the free download version does? Is it just a limited sampling or maybe leaves a watermark, I suspect? I might have to play around with that myself. Thanks for your suggestion!

What about Sway by Microsoft? It’s a bit like PowerPoint but makes much slicker looking slideshows with little effort, and when you share with the person it automatically changes the format to what looks best on the size of screen they’re viewing on (phone, laptop etc).
