Room Display Settings via Teem Web

Teem provides a variety of controls to assist you in getting the perfect settings in your environment. You can mass-apply settings to your devices or set them individually. This is useful for different information in a public meeting room vs. an executive’s meeting room.

Booking - There is a wide variety of booking policies and Teem can accommodate most companies. This includes the ability to create events from the device, require participants to check in, and delete or cancel events from the device.

Privacy - We understand that some information is private and should not be exposed on a public-facing device. Through the Teem Web app, you can manage what information is being displayed in EventBoard app.

Device Display Hours

Keep your Display Devices from being fully lit all day, every day, by scheduling device hours. Though iPads do not typically experience burn-in, the cost of always-on displays can get expensive. Dimmed-down displays will also allow devices to run cooler in an enclosure. We recommend that customers set up device hours to be on during work hours and off during away hours. This setting is applied in your admin dashboard rather than on the iPad. 

See Room Display and Booking Settings Overview for more information on the settings.
