PlainSignage

Android tablets & boxes

Digital signage on Android tablets and set-top boxes

Tablets make excellent small screens: a meeting-room sign at the door, a menu at the counter, a queue display at the desk. Any Android tablet or TV box with Android 7+ runs the PlainSignage player, portrait or landscape.

Set-up steps

  1. 1Install the PlainSignage APK on the tablet or box
  2. 2Open the app and note the pairing code
  3. 3Add the screen in the console
  4. 4Choose portrait or landscape and publish

Good to know

Keep the tablet plugged in and enable 'stay awake while charging' in the developer options.
