Sorry and thanks for using WhizScreen.





WhizScreen DIY

WhizScreen DIY (which replaces our older WhizSceen app) is an app that never goes to sleep – literally once the app is running your tablet’s screen will stay on and display the information you want the way you want it.
We built WhizScreen DIY as a platform that allows you to display the information you like and connect with other services and smart devices.

How does it work?

First download the WhizScreen app to your Android, Fire tablet, Fire TV or iPad.

Open a web browser on your PC or Mac and visit the WhizScreen DIY management console at https://app.whizscreen.com/.

The Web Console will allow you to:

Set the layout of your screen – a layout includes the background and the number of tiles that will populate your screen.

Once you set the layout you can populate each tile with a widget. A widget can be a clock, plain text or a more complex UI element that can interact with other services. The widget look and feel is up to you.

You can also send messages to the screen and do other cool things.

Build Your Own Widget

The cool part of WhizScreen DIY is that you can build your own Widgets.  A widget is a standalone HTML component (built using HTML/CSS/Javascript) that is displayed on your screen. You can have several widgets displayed on the screen or just one that occupies the entire screen. You can build your widget by yourself or by grabbing an HTML template from the internet - any HTML page will work. 

API Based

Everything WhizScreen DIY can do can be done using our API.

A great example is using the API to integrate with services like IFTTT or smart home hubs like SmartThings.

Lets say you want to display a news widget on your screen, you can build a nice looking news widgets but what about the news content? The solution is to use IFTTT to bridge between a news source and WhizScreen DIY using our API. For example, any time a new news article is posted on the New York Times, IFTTT can call the WhizScreen DIY API and update your screen with the news title.
