Mac, Linux, Chromebooks and tablets

SignBlink's player is a web page, so any device with a modern browser can run it: a Mac, a Linux computer, a Chromebook or a tablet.

#Any computer or tablet

1. Open app.signblink.com/play in Chrome, Edge, Safari or Firefox.
2. Enter the 6-character code it shows under Screens → Add screen.
3. Go full screen: F11 on Windows and Linux, Ctrl + Cmd + F on a Mac.
4. Turn off sleep and the screen saver in the device's settings, and keep it plugged in.

#A Linux computer that opens SignBlink at startup

For an always-on Linux player (Ubuntu, Debian and similar, with a desktop):

1. Install Chromium if you don't have it: sudo snap install chromium on Ubuntu, or sudo apt install chromium on Debian.
2. In Settings → Users, turn on Automatic Login. In Settings → Power, set Screen Blank to Never and turn off automatic suspend.
3. Add SignBlink to the programs that open at sign-in. The exact command is in SignBlink under Screens → Add screen → Set up the TV → Linux; copy it into a terminal.
4. Restart. SignBlink opens full screen with a code. Enter it under Screens → Add screen.

If it doesn't open after restarting, check that automatic login is on and that the file ~/.config/autostart/signblink.desktop exists.
