Vertical Screen Setup
Setting up a vertical (portrait) screen takes less than 30 seconds. Two settings — rotation and playlist — and a quick app restart.
Step 1: Change the screen rotation
- Go to the Screens tab (Step 3).
- Select First Screen from the left sidebar.
- Find the Rotation dropdown.
- Select 90 — Vertical (or 270 — Vertical depending on which way the TV is mounted).
- Click Save.
Step 2: Switch to a vertical playlist
- Scroll down to the Playlist section.
- Select your vertical (9:16) playlist from the dropdown.
- Remove any horizontal playlists if needed.
- Click Save.
Step 3: Reload the app on your device
For the rotation change to take effect:
- On your Fire Stick or Android device, press the Home button.
- Open the SignPresenter app again.
- Your screen now displays in vertical mode.
Rotation options
- 0 — Horizontal — Standard landscape
- 90 — Vertical — Portrait, rotated 90° clockwise
- 180 — Horizontal — Upside-down landscape
- 270 — Vertical — Portrait, rotated 90° counter-clockwise
note
After changing rotation settings, you must close and reopen the SignPresenter app for changes to take effect.
