Menu Board Pro: Digital Menus

Menu Board Pro turns the TVs in your restaurant, café or coffee shop into a digital menu board that you design yourself on your phone or tablet. No design skills, hardware contracts or per-screen cloud fees.

It is a menu board app and simple digital signage for independent food businesses: restaurants, cafés, coffee shops, bakeries, pizza places, burger joints, dessert and bubble-tea shops, takeaways and food trucks.

How it works
The same app runs on the phone or tablet you design with and on each TV in your shop. On first launch, each device picks its role: Studio for designing, or Screen for the TV.
1. Pick a template and make it yours. Tap any word, price or photo to change it.
2. On the TV, open Menu Board Pro and choose Pair with Studio. Scan the QR code it shows with your phone or tablet, or type the code instead.
3. Publish. Your designs travel to the TVs over your shop's own Wi-Fi and play full screen on their own, even after you close the app on your phone.

60 ready-made food and café templates
Burgers and chicken, deals, pizza and street food, coffee and bakery, drinks and desserts, classic menu boards, seasonal and video designs. From a café menu board to a burger deals screen, every template fits both landscape and portrait screens.

A layer editor made for touch
Add text, menu lists with prices, cut-out food photos, 3D stickers, shapes, offer badges and text styles from the library. Move, resize and rotate anything, with undo and redo. Add your own photos, or a video background that plays silently behind your design.

Animation in one tap
Tap Animate everything and each element gets a fitting entrance, one after another. Add a loop where it helps: a slow zoom on a food photo, a shine across a badge or a scrolling ticker.

Your brand kit
Save your logo, brand colors, and headline and text fonts, upload your own fonts, and apply your brand to your designs.

Scheduling and different designs per TV
Schedule designs by time of day and day of week, such as a breakfast menu until 11. Scheduling follows the TV's clock. Choose different designs for each TV, such as one for the counter and one for the window.

Keeps playing when the internet is down
Published designs are stored on the TV, so it keeps playing during an internet outage. This needs an active subscription, your phone or tablet on the shop's Wi-Fi at least every 14 days, and a subscription check with Google Play at least every 30 days.

Private by design
No account and no sign-in. No cloud, no analytics and no ads. Your designs, photos and fonts stay on your devices and your paired TVs. The camera is used only to scan the TV's pairing code. Back up everything to one file and restore it, export designs, or save them as full HD images.

Subscription
Designing is free: templates, the editor, the brand kit, backups, image export and pairing TVs. Publishing to your TVs and unlimited full-screen preview need a monthly or yearly subscription, and one subscription covers unlimited TVs. Eligible new subscribers get a free trial; Google Play decides eligibility. Without a subscription, full-screen preview runs five minutes at a time. When a subscription ends, the TVs show a notice and then pause.

Devices
Design on Android phones and tablets. Use Android TV or Google TV as your menu display, or turn any Android tablet into a screen. The TV side uses the TV remote. Available in English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese and Portuguese (Brazil), with light and dark themes.

Good to know
Your phone or tablet and your TVs must be on the same local network to pair and publish. Menu Board Pro must be open on the TV to show your designs. After a power cut, reopen the app on the TV to resume your saved designs.

Recent changes:
• Connecting a TV is more reliable. It now works on Wi-Fi networks that use a proxy, and stays on Wi-Fi when your phone or tablet also has mobile data.
• A TV on both Ethernet and Wi-Fi lists every address in its QR code, and your phone tries them all.
• When a TV can't be reached, you now see why: different networks, the app closed on the TV, or a Wi-Fi that keeps devices apart.
• A TV that gets a new address from your router is found again automatically.
