About CNN

The CNN app solves the common dilemma of providing news in public spaces without creating distraction. Unlike live broadcasts that demand attention through audio, this visual headline feed delivers information without disrupting conversations or work. The app proves particularly effective in waiting rooms, break areas, and lobbies where audience dwell time varies. Setup requires just minutes – select your preferred news categories, adjust visual settings, and publish to your screens. Organizations often complement the news feed with company announcements to maximize communication effectiveness.

Frequently Asked Questions

How frequently do the CNN headlines update on my screens?

The app checks for new content approximately every 60 seconds, immediately displaying fresh headlines as CNN publishes them. This automatic refresh happens without staff intervention, ensuring your screens always show current information regardless of how long they've been running. During breaking news events, this frequency means your displays remain particularly relevant.

Can I display different news categories on different screens throughout my facility?

Yes. You can create multiple instances of the CNN app, each configured for specific content categories. For example, you might show health news in medical waiting areas, business updates in corporate spaces, and general headlines in public lobbies. This targeting enhances relevance for specific viewer demographics throughout your organization.

Will the app work in locations with unreliable internet connectivity?

The app employs efficient caching that stores recent headlines locally on your media player. If connectivity is temporarily lost, your screens continue displaying the cached content until the connection returns. This design ensures continuity even in environments where network reliability fluctuates throughout the day.

How can I integrate CNN headlines with my own messaging?

Using Fugo's Design Studio, you can position the CNN feed alongside company announcements, event information, or social media content. Many organizations reserve specific screen zones for news while using other areas for internal communications, creating multi-purpose displays that serve both information needs simultaneously.
