Frequently asked questions:

Can I remove existing quotes and use any of my own?

Currently you can only use the preset quotes we have available. In future, we’ll hopefully add the ability for you to add your own quotes. Otherwise, feel free to use one of our other apps like Noticeboard or the standard Quotes app to create your own custom quotes. 

How many quotes will show up on the screen?

There are 30 quotes in total paired with distinct images that will shuffle during playback.

How do I show the quotes in a specific order?

Currently, all quotes are shown in randomized order with the images. This is done to keep the content dynamic on your digital screens. 

Will the app work offline?

Once the app has been used for an entire play-through of both the images and all quotes while connected to the internet, it will continue to play on your screen offline.
