Digital signage software

Digital signage on the TV you already own

Menu boards, lobby screens and storefront displays without a media player. Schedule by time of day, update from your phone, and manage every screen from one dashboard.

Works on Roku, Fire TV, LG, Samsung, Apple TV and Google TV

Live in three steps, no hardware to buy

  1. 1

    Install the free Ztalio app on the TV

    It is in the Roku Channel Store, Amazon Appstore, LG Content Store, Samsung Apps, the Apple TV App Store and Google Play. No stick, box or media player to buy.

  2. 2

    Pair it with a code

    The TV shows a short code. Enter it in the Ztalio web app or phone app and the screen is linked to your account in seconds.

  3. 3

    Upload, schedule, done

    Drop in images, videos and slides from your phone or computer, build playlists, and set which one plays at which hour. Changes reach every screen instantly.

Built for the screens small businesses actually run

The same app powers a café menu, a hotel lobby and a church foyer. Pick the setup that matches yours.

Menu boards

Breakfast, lunch and dinner menus that switch on their own. Change a price from your phone; the board updates while you watch.

Restaurants & cafés

Lobby and waiting-room screens

Welcome messages, hours, promotions and house rules on the TV in reception, a clinic or a gym, with captions for a silent room.

See the features

Storefront and retail displays

Product slides and offers facing the window or above the counter. Run one loop all day, or a different one for the evening crowd.

Plans by screen count

Vacation-rental welcome boards

A personalised welcome, Wi-Fi details and local tips on the living-room TV the moment guests arrive.

Airbnb & rentals

Offices and meeting rooms

Announcements, KPIs and event slides across several screens from one dashboard. Staff update shared folders; every room follows.

Shared folders

Churches, venues and clubs

Service times, sponsor loops and event schedules on the screens in the hall, the foyer and the bar, all managed by volunteers from their phones.

Setup guides

Signage features, without signage prices

Schedule by time of day

Give every playlist a window. Breakfast until 11, lunch until 4, dinner after that. The screen changes over by itself, seven days a week.

Update from your phone

Swap a slide, fix a price or add a special from wherever you are. Screens refresh within seconds, no reboot, no USB stick.

Many screens, one dashboard

Link up to 25 screens on one account and push the same loop everywhere, or give each location its own.

Shared folders for your team

Invite staff by email. Anything they drop into a shared folder can go straight onto the screens they manage.

Captions for silent rooms

Closed captions play with your videos, so a waiting room or a bar with the sound off still gets the message.

Background music

Attach a music track to a slideshow for a lobby or a shop floor. Playlists shuffle and loop until you say otherwise.

Digital signage questions

Do I need a digital signage media player?

No. Ztalio runs as an app on the smart TV itself, so a Roku, Fire TV, LG, Samsung, Apple TV or Google TV is the player. If you have an older TV, a Roku or Fire TV stick works too.

How much does digital signage cost with Ztalio?

One screen is free, with no time limit. Home is $4.99 a month for 3 screens, Venue is $9.99 a month for 10 screens, and Network is $19.99 a month for 25 screens. Annual billing gives you two months free.

Can the screen change content automatically by time of day?

Yes. Each playlist can be scheduled to a time window, so a café can show breakfast until 11am and lunch after that without anyone touching the TV. Schedules follow the timezone set on your account.

What file types can I show?

Photos and images (JPEG, PNG), video (MP4 and most phone formats, converted automatically) and audio for background music. Export slides from PowerPoint, Keynote or Canva as images or video and upload them.

Does it work if the TV loses internet?

The TV needs an internet connection to receive updates and stream media. A brief drop mid-loop usually recovers on its own; for a location with unreliable Wi-Fi we recommend a wired Roku or Fire TV.

Can several people manage the screens?

Yes. Home allows 3 users, Venue 10, and Network has no limit, so managers at each location can update their own screens.
