We’re starting 2025 with a big update: an official app, nicer weather, and a lot of small things that make managing screens easier.
The PWA app is officially here
Our Progressive Web App (PWA) is officially launched. Install it straight from your browser, no app store needed. It works on computers and phones, and loads fast.
Weather text with outline and shadow
Text in the Weather plugin can now have a stroke (outline) and a shadow. Weather stays easy to read on any background, even a busy photo.
Images keep their size
With the new Preserve Size option in your default values, images keep their original size when you add them to a slide. No more resizing by hand.
Dashboard and screens
- The dashboard is updated, with a clearer overview of your screens. See the dashboard guide.
- Filter your screens by group.
- Switch between teams from any page in my.playsignage.com.
- Link a new screen by scanning the QR code on the link screen page, instead of typing the code.
Library and alerts
- See where a file is used in the library, before you change or delete it.
- Edit several alerts at once.
- Limit alerts outside normal business hours, so you’re only woken up when it matters.
