What Screen Do I Need?
Clean Day runs in a web browser, so many screens can be the display. Some are much easier to leave running than others.
What the screen needs
- A web browser that can open a page.
- Power and Wi-Fi.
Nothing needs to be typed on it. Open the display link or scan the QR code (see Connect a Display).
Best choice: a tablet
An iPad, Android tablet, or Fire tablet can be locked to Clean Day, so the person cannot close it or change settings by accident. A locked tablet cannot be accidentally closed or reset. An unlocked one can be, which is the most common cause of "it stopped working".
Also works
- A computer or laptop with any monitor: open the display link in a web browser.
- A Raspberry Pi with a monitor: see DIY: Raspberry Pi Display.
A monitor or TV alone cannot run Clean Day. It needs a device attached. A computer is easy to leave in a state where it can be closed or changed, so keep it out of the person's reach or use the Raspberry Pi guide.
What reminders look like
Reminders show on the screen in large type with a pulsing frame.
