FAQ
How quickly do new files appear on screen after adding them to Dropbox?
New content appears within minutes of being added to your connected Dropbox folder. The app checks for updates at regular intervals and automatically refreshes your display to include new images or videos. This synchronization happens without any manual intervention, making it ideal for environments that require frequent content updates across multiple screens.
What file types are supported by the Dropbox Showcase app?
The app supports most common image formats (JPG, PNG, GIF) and video formats (MP4, MOV) stored in your Dropbox. For optimal performance, Fugo will automatically compress image files for on screen display, though you will have the option to change this setting. The system will skip any unsupported file types in your folder without disrupting the showcase.
Can I control the order in which my Dropbox files appear on screen?
Yes. The app offers multiple sorting options including alphabetical by filename, chronological by upload date (newest to oldest or oldest to newest), or random rotation. This flexibility allows you to either maintain precise control over the content sequence or create a more dynamic, varied display that changes with each cycle.
Is it possible to use the Dropbox Showcase alongside other content on my screens?
Absolutely. Using Fugo's Design Studio, you can resize the Dropbox Showcase to occupy a specific zone on your screen, allowing you to display additional content simultaneously. Common configurations include pairing the showcase with weather information, company announcements, or social media feeds. This multi-zone approach maximizes your screen's communication potential.
