What is Media24
Media24 is a digital-signage platform. You upload your own images and videos, schedule them into campaigns, and play them on your own screens — shop displays, lobby TVs, food-court boards, arrival halls. Everything is managed from one web app, and every screen runs a small Android app that plays what you publish.
Run your own content on your own screens
Section titled “Run your own content on your own screens”Media24 exists to put your content on your displays. You bring the media and the screens; Media24 handles uploading, scheduling, publishing to the right devices, and reporting back that the content actually played. It is built for operators of signage fleets — advertisers, shop owners, and marketing teams — not for developers.
The two parts: Manager and Player
Section titled “The two parts: Manager and Player”Media24 has exactly two pieces:
- Manager — the web app you are reading about here. You sign in with a browser and manage campaigns, content, and your fleet of screens from it.
- Player — the Android app installed on each screen. It connects to your workspace with a pairing code, downloads the content you publish, and plays it in a loop. See About the Media24 Player.
You do everything through the Manager; the Player just plays.
What you can do
Section titled “What you can do”The Manager is organised as a navigation rail down the left edge. Each icon opens one area of the product:
- Dashboard — a health overview of your fleet and content delivery. See Dashboard.
- Campaigns — create, schedule, and publish what plays on your screens.
- Content — upload and organise your images, videos, and text.
- Templates — pre-built screen layouts (full screen, split, ticker, and more).
- Media plan — a timeline (Gantt) view of all your campaigns.
- Devices — enrol screens, watch their status, and send them commands. See Devices.
- Insights — proof-of-play reports: what was scheduled versus what actually played.
- Users — invite teammates and control what each one can do.
- Event journal — a readable log of who did what, and when.
- Settings — your account security and workspace preferences.
- Plans — start a free trial or request device and storage subscriptions.
Each of these has its own article in the Manager section of this documentation.
What you need
Section titled “What you need”- A desktop or laptop browser. The Manager is a desktop app: in a window narrower than 768 px it shows an “unsupported screen” notice instead of the app. Use a modern desktop browser at a normal window size.
- An Android device with the Media24 Player installed for each screen you want to run. See System requirements for what the Player needs.
How this documentation is organised
Section titled “How this documentation is organised”This site has four sections:
- Getting started (you are here) — the on-ramp: create an account, launch your first campaign, and tour the interface.
- Manager — a reference for every screen and control in the web app.
- Player — installing, connecting, and managing the Android app.
- FAQ — short answers to common questions.
