The Guardian App

The Guardian App connects directly to The Guardian’s official live RSS feeds. It provides high-quality global news, culture, and lifestyle updates for your digital signage viewers.

Internet Required

Requires Active Internet: Yes

Because news headlines change constantly, this app dynamically pulls live data from the internet. If your screen goes offline, this specific scene will display a connection error, but the rest of your cached media will continue to loop normally.

Configuration Options

When you add The Guardian app to your timeline, you can customize the content to fit your environment perfectly.

1. Category Select a specific feed tailored to your audience. The Guardian offers a massive variety of feeds, including: Top Stories, World, Europe, Tech, Climate Change, Environment, Science, Football, Culture, and Lifestyle.

2. Theme Choose between the classic Blue (Guardian) theme for strong brand recognition, or a clean, minimalist White theme.

3. Headline Duration The app pulls multiple headlines from the live RSS feed. Set exactly how many seconds (between 5 and 60) each individual headline should remain on the screen before transitioning to the next one.

4. Transition Speed Choose how smoothly the app blends from one headline to the next. You can select Instant, Slow, Medium, or Fast crossfades.
