TV Signage with a firestick
Set up a Firetv for your community to display signage
Purchase a FireTV Stick
Add a FireTV Stick to a TV to display signage. You will need to purchase a FireTV Stick and create a free Amazon Account. Use the Signage tool or Prntyr to create specific slides for these screens. If you do not create signage prior to setting this up, there will be no content displayed.
Set up your FireTV Stick
- If not already set, set up your rooms for TV Signage. Email support@speak2family.com with the room name and level of care. Speak2 will create the room for you.
Create signage in the Speak2 portal for these new rooms. Go to Signage or use the Prntyr tool and add to these rooms/screens.
- Follow the directions in your Firestick package to set up your Firestick. This will require an Amazon account and your WiFi information.
- Once active, search the App Store for "Speak2". You will see the Speak2 app, which will have this logo:
- Open the Speak2 app, and fill in the form with your credentials for this specific TV: community ID, Room ID, and the duration you want your slides to display onscreen.
- Speak2 will create configuration details for your TVs and Community ID directly and separately from this document.
- Email support@speak2family.com if you need this information.
- Here are written instructions to print.
If you do not have slides or signage created for these rooms, no content will be displayed. Make sure to create content in the Speak2 portal.
Turn on "Automatic Updates" to get the latest version on the app.
