Introducing the brand new Fugo Microsoft Teams app that just landed in the Teams store and is helping to solve some pretty common problems:

• Fugo admins need a faster way to get content on screen without setting up a playlist, configuring an app, or curating a display in the Design Studio
• Your colleagues or employees are reluctant to learn and adopt another platform, like Fugo
• Designers, Fugo admins, and “People” teams don’t have the time to create a consistent stream of content assets for your screens
• You’re struggling to get your audience to tune into your screens or feel like they have a stake in your digital signage technology

These are not small problems. And at Fugo, we know that the most surefire way to see ROI on your tech investments is to a) make it almost effortless to use and b) get buy in from your wider organization.

The Teams bot is another step we’re taking to help you get there. We’ve taken a tool you’re already using and turned it into an automatic content creation machine that anyone in your Teams organization can use.

Simply install the app in your Teams account and start creating posts for your screens in a few steps:

1. Write your post in the Teams message composer
2. Attach your images, videos, gifs or audio
3. Choose which Space & screens to send it to
4. Choose to play it once or add it to your playlist schedule
5. Hit “Send”

Depending on the content in your post, Fugo will work out how it should be displayed on screen - saving you the effort of configuration.

Use it from your desktop or mobile Teams app 📱

We already have some customers using the app and we’re working on how we can take the integration further in partnership with Microsoft (more on that soon.)

While our TV Dashboards feature has been a game-changer for organizations hosting their data in the Cloud, we recognize that many enterprise organizations prefer to self-host their data for enhanced security and compliance.

With Fugo's On-Premise Dashboards support, you can now leverage our user-friendly TV Dashboards feature to run on your local servers, showcasing your local reports, dashboards, or desktop apps on TV screens.

Here are some key benefits you can expect:

✅ Unparalleled Security: Keep your data safe and protect sensitive information with an on-premise solution that ensures your data remains within your local network.

✅ Compliance and Data Control: For industries with strict compliance regulations, our on-premise solution allows you to maintain control over your data, ensuring adherence to industry standards.

✅ Seamless Integration: Easily connect your local reports, dashboards, or desktop apps to our user-friendly management system, enabling hassle-free content publishing and updates.

✅ Reliable Data Display: Eliminate worries about internet connectivity issues and enjoy consistent, real-time data display on your digital signage screens, even in environments with limited or unreliable internet access.

Fugo is now supported on LG WebOS Signage-powered displays!

Note that Fugo is already supported on LG WebOS TV-powered displays, and can be configured to run on those screen from the 'Play via URL' setting.

This latest update builds on our support for LG displays by making Fugo also available on displays running the LG WebOS Signage operating system.

Confused? Let us explain 👇

Understanding the difference between LG WebOS Signage & LG WebOS TV

LG WebOS Signage

LG WebOS Signage is the operating system on LG's commercial display line. It's built specifically for professional digital signage & includes hardware advantages over their consumer TVs like higher brightness, longer operating hours and higher durability.

We support:

• webOS Signage 4.0
• webOS Signage 4.1
• webOS Signage 6.0 (recommended)

LG WebOS TV

LG WebOS TV is the operating system on LG's consumer smart TV lines. It's built for home entertainment purposes and therefore lacks the feature set of a professional display, and doesn't support all of the functionality of the Fugo player application.

To learn more the differences between the two & how to find out what kind of screen you have, check out this guide.

To learn more about our minimum requirements & recommended LG displays, check out this guide.

And coming soon...

A dedicated Fugo player app for WebOS TV. This app will make it easier to install and run Fugo on your consumer grade LG smart TVs.

Reach out to support@fugo.ai if you have any questions about your LG display or want some guidance choosing displays for your upcoming project.

Happy publishing! 📺

Then meet the AirServer.

This handy little device helps you mirror your desktop to screens in meeting rooms and other common areas where you need to easily launch into presentation mode.

It's a universal screen mirroring receiver, with built in support for AirPlay, Google Cast, and Miracast. So you can mirror from your Mac or PC, iPhone, iPad, Android, Nexus or Chromebook.

And when the screen's not being used for presentations? That's where Fugo comes in.

You can use your AirServer device as a Fugo Player and easily switch between digital signage and screen sharing. All you have to do is set Fugo as your preferred content URL (https://player.fugo.ai) and that's it!

Whenever you're not mirroring to your display, the Airserver will automatically switch back to your 'normal programming' content as set in Fugo.

Don't forget we also have native support for screen casting built right into Fugo! See how 👇

Need a more secure Channel link?

You can now make your Channel link password-protected!

Find the Access settings next to the share button for your Channel link.

What's a 'Channel'?

Channels are like virtual TV screens - they allow you to share your Fugo content as a URL or embed it inside a website or intranet. They're super helpful for sharing content with your hybrid or WFH employees, students & their parents, or visitors & members of your church or club.

It's now super easy to select & move multiple media files between folders in your media library!

Here are a few ways to do it:

1. Starting from an empty space, drag your mouse over your desired items & move them into a folder:

*Hold 'shift' to add more items to your selection

2. Press 'shift' and click on items to enable selection:

3. Drag and drop all selected items into a folder at once:

4. Use Ctrl-A or Cmd-A to select all visible items

*De-select items as needed by clicking on them

We’re making a bid to help you connect your screens to even more of your favorite tools that Fugo doesn’t natively integrate with (yet!). Today, we're thrilled to introduce our new Zapier integration, giving you the flexibility to publish content on screens with less clicks. Use it to automate content publishing and updating flows on TV screens connected to Fugo:

• Push media to TV screens from the Slack & Discord channels your colleagues & customers use to chat
• Trigger content on screens to celebrate achievements & milestones hit inside tools like Salesforce, Hubspot & Monday.com
• Alert support or network monitoring teams to incoming support requests with auto-triggered alert messages on TV screens

These are just a few of the ways you can use this Zapier integration to make your screens more impactful for the teams that watch them.

We encourage you to head over to Zapier and start cooking up your own creations 🔥 You can start with one of our Zap templates or create an automation between Fugo and your favorite work tool.
