hi!
Is there any free app for the ipad that does a slideshow with a folder
or album of pictures, where it shuffles the images indefinitely while displaying multiple images simultaneously (like in a 2 by 2 grid)?
Preferably with a variety of transitional effects (like fading), but
that would just be a lovely bonus feature.

There used to be an app called picmatic that did this, but somehow
it has disappeared from the app store.

greetings and thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Apart from the 2x2 grid aspect Photos can do this. Select the photos you
want from your collection and then "Play as Slideshow". You can also save
this selection as a "Memory".

Photos is a horrible app. I think they succeeded in designing an app in
the most idiotic way possible. It doesn't shuffle the photos either.
They add unwanted music to the slideshow where the only way to get rid
of the music is to turn the volume to 0, etc..

You could have just said you'd already tried photos...
