How to show photos, weather, the Earth and stocks on one display
Open a display's Screens tab, choose the screens in its playlist, and set how long each stays. The display moves through them on its own, or you can hold one screen all day or use Show now to jump to one.
What you need
- A display connected to Inklyng
- A free Inklyng account
Steps
- Choose your screens. Weather, stocks, photos, the Earth, messages or your own text.
- Choose how often they change. From every few minutes to every fifteen.
- Set each screen up. Add your photos, pick your city for weather and the Earth, and add the tickers you follow.
- Let it run. The display shows each screen in turn, all day. Use Show now to jump to one straight away.
Tips
- Every display has its own playlist.
- Weather radar covers the continental United States. Elsewhere the screen shows the sun's path instead.
