Scheduling: what plays when
Every planGive any playlist item days, times or dates: breakfast in the morning, a sale for November only.
- In a playlist, press Always on the item. A box opens saying when that item plays.
- Days: tap days on or off, or press Every day, Weekdays or Weekends.
- Time of day: All day, or Between two times.
- Dates: Any date, or Only from one date until another. Leave one empty for “from a date” or “until a date”; both days count.
- Check the summary in bold at the bottom (“Weekdays · 6am–11am”), press Done, then Save the playlist.


The item’s row then shows its schedule, and its button says Schedule. To go back to always, open it and press Always play.
- Items with no schedule always play and fill the gaps. If every item has a schedule and none is on, the screen goes dark until one is: keep at least one item on Always.
- Times are each screen’s own local time (its location’s time zone), so one playlist works across time zones.
- A time window can run past midnight: Friday 8pm–2am counts as Friday night.
- Screens decide what’s on by themselves, so schedules keep working without the internet.
