Perfect for waiting rooms, schools, offices and basically anywhere đŞ our Calendar App will help you keep track of time â°
Hereâs how to get started!
Note: there are two ways to add content with Fugo - via our playlist builder and in our design studio. Weâll cover the steps for both methods in each section.
1. Using the playlist builder
1.1
Log into your Fugo Account. If you donât have an account yet, you can start your 14-day free trial here.
1.2
Click Apps in the top navigation bar to get to our app store.
1.3
Scroll to find the Calendar app in the store. To find it even faster, you can search for it via the search bar at the top of the store.
1.4
Click Try App to create a new playlist with the app.
1.5
A window will appear where you can customize the appâs settings.
1.6
You can select the Theme.
1.7
You also can select when the week starts with Week Starts On.
1.8
Next, set the appâs duration (this refers to how long an app will play inside a playlist.)
1.9
If you want to customize your calendarâs appearance further, you can check the transparent background in the settings.
1.10
Once youâre all done, click Save Changes in the bottom right corner!
To continue on to publishing instructions from here, you can skip to section 3: build out your playlist.
2. Using the Design Studio
2.1
Click Studio in the top navigation bar. Then click Create in Studio to start a new design.
2.2
This will open up a blank canvas for you to start adding content to! To add the Calendar app, either scroll to find it in the Apps menu to the right, or search for it to find it faster.
2.3
Drag and drop the app onto your canvas from the menu. Or simply click on it and it will be added to your current slide.
You may also want to add the Calendar app to content you've already created. That's possible too! You'll just need to open up the content in the studio and start editing it.
For the rest of this guide, I'll be working with a piece of pre-made content so you can get a feel for what the QR code looks like when overlaid on other content. My example will use Fugo's Welcome Dashboard template.
2.4
You can drag the sizing handles of the app around to change the size. Make it smaller so you can split your screen and add other content, or make it full screen - thatâs totally up to you!
2.5
Customizing the Calendar app settings works the same way in the design studio - all settings will be found in the panel to the left. To bring up the panel, click on the app from the canvas.
You can continue to customize your content however you wish in the studio! Add media from one of our integrations, add stickers, use frames to create unique media stylings. Add slides with extra or duplicate content. You can even split your screen into zones!
2.6
When youâre satisfied with how your content looks, click Save and Close. This will close out the design studio. To publish this content, youâll need to add it to a playlist, which weâll cover in the next section.
3. Build out your playlist
Note: If you want to add content you created in the studio to a playlist. Youâll need to navigate to the Playlists page by clicking Playlists in the top navigation bar and Create Playlist to start a new playlist.
3.1
Give your playlist a name (we suggest making it something relevant to distinguish it from other playlists later on down the road.)
3.2
Click Select Screens to choose where to publish your playlist.
3.3
You can also add more content to your playlist by clicking Add More Content and choosing other apps, uploading media, or from the content that you created in the studio.
I want to add the Calendar content I created in section 2 above, so I'm going to find it by clicking Studio Content and searching for it in my content library.
3.4
When you've selected all the content items you want to add to this playlist, click Add Items in the bottom right corner.
3.5
Finally, you can change the schedule of your content by setting the start and end date and clicking Week Schedule to edit the days and times your content will run.
3.5
Once youâre all done setting up the playlist, click Publish in the bottom right-hand corner of the screen to publish or schedule your content.
3.6
If you donât want to publish just yet, you can click Finish Later and come back to your playlist at any time.
And there you have it! If you find yourself still scratching your head, you can contact our team for help any time at support@fugo.ai.
