Room display is an app for showing real-time room availability on a tablet right next to the room entrance. It helps customers find free rooms, make instant bookings via QR code, and prevents abandoned bookings.

How Room display works
Real-time availability: Room display can be installed at the entrance of each room and shows its real-time availability with clear color indicators — green (available), yellow (available soon), and red (occupied). It makes it easy for customers to find an available room in your space.
On-demand bookings: At the entrance, users can instantly book an available room on demand by scanning a QR code from the Room display with their smartphone. The display updates immediately to reflect the new booking.
Meeting progress and calendar: The display shows the current meeting status, a progress bar, and upcoming bookings, helping users understand when the room will be free.
Check-in and abandoned booking protection: For totally free rooms, users can check in directly on the Room display. In case of no check-in, the system automatically removes the booking from the calendar, freeing up the space for others.
Simple setup: Room display runs on widely available OS or Android tablets, requiring no expensive hardware.
FAQs
Is it possible to install Room display or Reception on a tablet without Google Play or App Store?
Is it possible to install Room display or Reception on a tablet without Google Play or App Store?
Unfortunately, there is no way to do it. As outlined in our Room display/Reception tablet prerequisites, access to Google Play or App Store is the main requirement and the only way to install Room display and Reception on the tablet.
We do not provide or support APK files for sideloading Room display and Reception apps, and we strongly advise against it for security and functionality. Please use tablets that meet system requirements, including Google Play or App Store access.
