Scheduling & dayparting

Boards that change themselves by time of day, breakfast at 8, cocktails at 6.

Available on the Economy plan and up

OPEN 0800
§ What it is & why it helps

Scheduling means the right board shows at the right time, automatically. Build the boards you want, breakfast, lunch, dinner, happy hour, a closing message, then assign each to a time slot. At each slot the screen switches on its own, so no one has to remember to change it.

It's the feature that makes a board truly hands-off. Menus swap through the day, promotions run only during set hours, and the screen looks after itself, freeing your staff to look after customers.

Dayparting changes the board when the time of day changes. A repeating pattern does something different: it cycles several boards in order, over and over, inside a window you set. A lobby screen can run a welcome board for thirty minutes, today's events for thirty, then start again, nine to five, Monday to Friday. Boards are never cut off part way through, so if the next one cannot finish before the window closes it is not started at all.

§ What you get
  • ✓Time-based board switching
  • ✓Set-and-forget weekly schedules
  • ✓Different content per screen
  • ✓Rotate several boards on one screen
§ Ways to use it

Where Scheduling works best

The same feature adapts to lots of spaces, here are the most popular ways people use it.

Dayparting menus

Switch breakfast, lunch and dinner menus automatically at the times you set.

Happy hour

Run discounted pricing only during set hours, then switch back on its own.

Opening & closing

Show an “open” welcome and a “see you tomorrow” message at the right times.

Timed promotions

Display a promo board only during the window you're running the offer.

Weekly routines

Set a repeating weekly schedule once and let it run.

Per-screen content

Schedule different content on different screens from one account.

Lobby rotation

Menu and promo together

Alternate the full menu with a promotion board so both get seen, without either taking the screen for good.
