Guide
A menu shows everything you sell. A promo sells one thing, big. Most shops use both on the same TV. This page shows you which to make and how to put them together.

Menu · Promo
Everything a TV plays is either a menu or a promo.
Every item you sell, grouped in sections like Sandwiches or Drinks, with prices. It's what people read to decide what to order.
Examples: Breakfast menu, all-day menu, drinks board, catering list
A big ad for one thing: a photo, a headline, a price and a badge. It grabs attention for a moment, then hands the screen back.
Examples: Lunch special, new drink, holiday combo, weekend deal
Simple rule: if people need to compare and choose, make a menu. If you want them to notice one thing, make a promo.

A TV plays a playlist. Put menus and promos in it, in any order, and choose how they share the screen.

Menus and promos play one after another, each for the time you pick (8 seconds, 15, 30…). Each promo gets the whole screen for its turn.

The menu stays up on most of the screen and your promos take turns in a panel beside it, so people in line can always see prices.

Give each menu or promo in the playlist its own hours and days. Breakfast in the morning, the lunch special from 11 to 3, dinner after.

Link 2 to 4 TVs into one wall. A long menu spreads across them, pages turn together, and promos can sit on the last screen.

Turn one into the other
Promos and menus share the same items, so you can build one from the other in a tap.
In the menu editor, tap the megaphone on any item. A new promo opens with its name, description, price and photo already filled in.
Menus › open a menu › item › Make a promo
Already have a few promos? Pick them in order and they become a Specials menu, one item each, ready to edit and publish.

Ideas
Your main menu with one or two promos beside it. Prices are always up and the special keeps moving.
Link them as a wall for one big menu, or give each TV its own playlist: the menu on one, rotating promos on the other.
Promos only, turned portrait. One big photo at a time pulls people in from the street.
A menu for each part of the day with its own hours, plus a promo that only plays at lunch.

No. A promo can stand alone with its own title, price and photo. Building it from a menu item is easier, though: its price and photo stay in step with the menu, and it hides itself when you mark the item sold out.
Yes. Put only promos in its playlist. That works well for a portrait TV by the door or in the window.
You choose the time per page on each display, from 6 to 60 seconds. A long menu uses that time for each of its pages.
After its last day it stops playing on every TV by itself, and the countdown, if it's on, shows people how long is left before that.
Menus are on every plan. Promos, discounts and schedules come with Standard and Pro.
