Google Sheets app for digital signage

The Google Sheets app turns your spreadsheets into visible, actionable information. Sales teams use it to display real-time targets and achievements, manufacturing floors show production metrics, and schools display attendance or grade data. Setup is straightforward – authenticate your Google account, select your spreadsheet, choose your view type, and adjust formatting options. When you update your spreadsheet, your screens refresh automatically, ensuring everyone sees the latest figures without additional publishing steps.

What's the difference between "Public View" and "PDF" View options?

"Public View" embeds your spreadsheet directly for real-time display, but requires your sheet to be publicly shareable. "PDF View" converts your spreadsheet to a static PDF that refreshes every few minutes, works with restricted sharing settings, and offers offline functionality when network connectivity is limited.

Can I display specific sections of a large spreadsheet?

Yes. When selecting your spreadsheet, you can specify which worksheets, ranges, or tabs to display. This allows you to focus audience attention on relevant data points without exposing your entire workbook, making it ideal for creating targeted performance dashboards or financial updates.

Will formulas and calculations update automatically on screen?

Yes. All formulas, calculations, and conditional formatting in your Google Sheet function normally in both viewing modes. When connected data changes or formulas recalculate in your spreadsheet, these updates appear on your screens automatically without requiring manual refreshes.

Can I combine Google Sheets with other content on my screens?

Absolutely. Using Fugo's Design Studio, you can incorporate spreadsheets as one element within a larger layout. Many organizations display key metrics alongside complementary content like weather forecasts, company announcements, or social media feeds to create comprehensive information displays.
