Widgets are on the way. Drop a clock, weather forecast, countdown, RSS ticker or Google Calendar into any design and it will stay current on its own, so screens feel live without anyone updating them.
First 3 screens free. No credit card.
Time and weather
Planned clock, date, countdown, weather and forecast widgets that update themselves.
News and tickers
RSS feeds, news and scrolling tickers to keep lobby and break room screens fresh.
Web and video embeds
Web pages, YouTube, Vimeo and iframes inside a design, not just full screen.
Calendars and sheets
Google Calendar and Google Sheets widgets for room schedules and simple data.
Live content inside any design
Widgets are planned as elements you place in the design editor like text or an image. Instead of a fixed value, they show something live: the current time, today's forecast, a countdown to opening day, or the latest headlines. Size and style them to match the rest of your layout. The first set will focus on the widgets most screens need, with industry-specific widgets to follow.
- Clock, date, countdown and weather
- Forecast, news, RSS and tickers
- QR codes, web pages and iframes
- Placed and styled in the design editor
Planned widget set
The planned list covers the common needs first: clock, date, countdown, weather, forecast, news, RSS, ticker, QR, webpage, YouTube, Vimeo, Google Calendar, Google Sheets, JSON, REST, image, video, slideshow, menu, social, stock, crypto, maps, HTML and iframe. Widgets will arrive in stages. Today, the design editor already supports QR codes and web pages, so you can cover some of these needs now.
- Google Calendar and Google Sheets
- YouTube and Vimeo
- JSON and REST data widgets
- QR codes and web pages available now
Where widgets fit in pricing
Widgets are planned as part of the Standard plan at $3 per screen per month, alongside advanced scheduling, screen groups, offline caching and remote management. Your first three screens are always free. Widgets will work with offline playback where possible, so a clock keeps ticking and a forecast shows its last update even if a feed cannot refresh. We will mark each widget on this page as it becomes available.
- Planned for Standard, $3 per screen per month
- First three screens always free
