Fraimic uses the state of the art Spectra 6 display by E Ink, delivering vivid full color and natural tones without glare or harsh backlighting.

Fraimic uses E Ink Spectra 6 technology, capable of displaying up to 65,000 distinct colors. Display performance depends on the controller and waveform configuration used.

Fraimic is designed to pop out of the included frame and into many other frames — it’s a smart E Ink canvas, not a locked-in proprietary frame.

The E Ink display uses power only when changing the image, consuming zero power during static display. The battery charges via the USB-C port on the back. On the 14" × 18" SKU, a single charge can generally last at least 3 years depending on refresh frequency. Even when the battery depletes, the frame retains the last displayed image.

Battery life varies based on how often you change images. For light usage (about 1 change/day), the 14"×18" SKU can last up to ~3 years. Yes — you can keep using and refreshing images while charging via USB-C.

Fraimic uses a built-in rechargeable lithium battery with a common pin connector. We don’t recommend users replace batteries on their own.

Charging time depends on the charger’s output (wattage) and the current battery level. Use a standard USB-C charger for best results.

There are two ways to create and update content on Fraimic:

1. Upload via web: Use app.fraimic.com to browse a curated gallery, upload your own images, and access uploads from the past. It supports multi-user management and auto-calibrates/crops/orients for a perfect fit.
2. Voice-To-Vision: Tap the bottom-right corner of the matte, say what you want to see, then tap once more. Fraimic generates and displays art based on your voice prompt.

Yes. If the frame is placed horizontally and you send a portrait image (or generate one via Voice-To-Vision), the image will rotate to landscape orientation.

Fraimic supports most mainstream static image formats: JPG, JPEG, PNG up to 35MB. Animated formats like GIF are not supported due to E-Ink refresh limitations.

Yes. Set your Fraimic to "Always Awake" mode and go to app.fraimic.com, sign into your account and load any image you'd like to any frame connected to your account from around the world.

Make sure your fraimic is awake and connected to the “Fraimic_XXX” network, then on your mobile device or PC load fraimic.local to manually launch the local access portal.

This likely means you have entered the incorrect password for your WiFi network, please reload the local access portal and try again.

please allow up to 10 minutes for the email confirmation to arrive and make sure to check your spam folder. If you still do not see the email confirmation after 10 minutes, contact support@fraimic.com

When you're in the new WiFi network, wake Fraimic, and select the "Fraimic_XXX" WiFi network from your WiFi settings. From there the Fraimic Access Portal will open and you will be able to connect your Fraimic to your new WiFi network.

If your Fraimic loses WiFi connection, simply wake Fraimic and connect back to the "Fraimic_XXX" network in your WiFi settings. The access portal will automatically open and you can reload your WiFi credentials.

The touch capacitive areas on Fraimic are super sensitive. It is likely that you accidentally touched the switches during handling or moving, causing the microphone to engage, then with another accidental tap, ended the recording and thusly prompted an image.

Simply triple tap the right hand corner of the Fraimic mat to cancel. You'll see a yellow light blink three times.

E Ink Spectra 6 can’t display JPG/PNG directly like an LCD. Images require a specific conversion workflow (including a specialized BMP format with Spectra 6 properties). Also, E-Ink refresh is slow (seconds per refresh), so “slideshow” style playback isn’t the intended experience. Avoiding extra ports also reduces cost and complexity.

Instead, Fraimic focuses on a simple mobile upload workflow and local Wi-Fi sharing for fast, high-quality updates.

Yes. Fraimic is a multi-year battery E Ink display for photos and art you already love. AI only comes into play when you use Voice-To-Vision. You can also disable Voice-To-Vision for peace of mind.

Fraimic aims to elevate outputs with style presets so simple prompts become cohesive, high-quality images. Users can also explore curated aesthetics or build a consistent look.

Fraimic uses reflective color E Ink (paper-like), so it relies on ambient light. In low light, visibility is similar to printed art — you’ll want room lighting or a nearby lamp. The display does not emit light (by design) to avoid a “screen” look.
