Immich Kiosk

Lightweight Immich-powered photo slideshow for kiosk displays and browsers

1.6k Docker GPL-3.0 today

Overview

Immich Kiosk is a lightweight slideshow add-on that uses an existing Immich instance as its photo data source, making it easy to turn any screen or browser into a digital photo frame. It ships as a single Docker container and is configured through environment variables or a simple YAML file. Display options include random albums, people, memories, and custom filters.

Where it falls short of Google Photos

  • Requires a running Immich server — not a standalone photo solution
  • No built-in photo management, editing, or upload capabilities
  • Slideshow customisation is limited to what Immich exposes via its API
  • No offline mode; depends entirely on network access to the Immich backend

We list the gaps honestly so you can decide if the trade-off is worth owning your data.
