Everything on one calm screen
Tackt turns any TV, tablet or Raspberry Pi into an endlessly customizable display. Here is what it can do at home and at work.
Let anyone write on your screen
Share one private link. Family, guests or staff open it on a phone, tablet or computer and write or draw with a finger, a pencil or a mouse. It shows up on your screen within seconds.
No app, no account
Anyone with the link can write. There is nothing to install and nothing to sign up for.
Everyone at once
Two people can write at the same time without getting in each other’s way. Each person can undo their own last strokes.
You stay in control
Clear the board in one click, or make a new link to cut off the old one straight away. Available on every plan.
For your home
A family hub for the kitchen wall, a hallway mirror or an old tablet.
Your real calendars
Connect Google Calendar, or paste a private iCal link from Outlook, iCloud and others. Show it as an agenda, a day timeline, a week or a full month.
Colour that means something
Give recurring events one colour and let one-off events pick from your own palette, or put every event in a single colour. All-day events can fill with colour for easy spotting. Today is always highlighted.
Clock and countdown
Pick the colours and fonts for the time and the date separately, in any time zone. Count down to a birthday, a trip or the last day of school.
Notes and lists
A grocery list or reminders for the family, right on the board. Edit them from your phone.
Photo slideshow
Upload your favourite pictures to a private album and let them fade through on the screen. Use one as the board background.
Polaroids and frames More blocks on Personal
Give a photo a polaroid frame with a handwritten caption, a photo mat, rounded corners or a taped print, then tilt it a few degrees. Add several photo blocks for a collage.
Layers
Overlap blocks and choose what sits in front. Put a message over a photo, or stack polaroids like prints on a table.
Cards, colours and round corners
Give any block its own coloured card, choose how solid it is and how round the corners are. Text switches to dark or light by itself so it stays readable.
A font for every block
Set a different font on each block, a classic serif on the clock, handwriting on a note, clean sans on the calendar. More than 40 to choose from.
Rotate through boards Personal and Business
Let one screen show several boards in turn, say the family calendar, then photos, then the chore list, switching on a timer you choose from 10 seconds up.
Handwritten notes Every plan
Share a private link and anyone can write or draw on your screen from a phone, tablet or computer. Good for “back at 5” and “dinner is in the oven”.
Weather
Current conditions and a short forecast for any city, in Celsius or Fahrenheit.
Seasonal themes
Christmas, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Canada Day and more switch on by themselves, then switch back.
Your layout, your way
Drag blocks anywhere, resize them in fine steps, line things up left, centre or right, and choose from more than 40 fonts. Landscape or portrait.
Spreadsheet block Personal and up
Show a range from a Google Sheet, such as a chore chart or a budget summary. Change the sheet and the screen follows.
For your business
Waiting rooms, front counters, kitchens and staff rooms. Start from a ready-made board and make it yours in minutes.
Ready-made templates Business
Clinic waiting room, clinic day schedule, restaurant daily specials and café menu board. Pick one, connect your calendar or sheet, and you are live.
Menus and specials from a spreadsheet Personal and up
Edit a Google Sheet from your phone and the menu board updates itself. Show just the rows you want with a cell range.
Your logo and watermark Business
Place your logo as its own block, choose its shape and size, and add a soft tiled watermark behind everything.
Scrolling message Business
Add a text banner that stays put or scrolls across the screen. Any colour, any font, any speed. Good for offers, closures and notices.
Schedules for the room
A timeline of today’s appointments or bookings, hour by hour, from your existing calendar.
Many screens, one account
Run the lobby, the staff room and the kitchen from one login. Each screen pairs with a short code, and you can unpair one in a click.
Works through Wi-Fi drops
If the connection drops, the screen keeps showing the last good picture and picks up again by itself.
Private by default
Calendar links and tokens are encrypted, photos are in a private album, and nothing is shown to the public unless it is on your screen.
A note for clinics and other places with private information. A screen in a public room can be read by anyone. Show first names or initials at most, and never medical details.
On every plan, including Free
Every theme and font
Looks are never held back. The plans differ by how many screens, boards and calendars you use, plus spreadsheets and the business tools.
Pair in seconds
Open Tackt on the screen, type the code it shows into your account. No cables, no setup files.
Runs on almost anything
A smart TV browser, an old tablet, a Raspberry Pi, a laptop on a stand. If it has a web browser, it works.
