ScreenWall

ScreenWall is browser-based software designed to repurpose old phones, tablets, monitors, and spare displays into synchronized widgets and displays. It addresses the need to make practical use of unused hardware by transforming these devices into clocks, status boards, ambient screens, signage, and shared screen walls, all managed from a central controller. The system does not require any app installation; users simply open a link in a browser, pair their screens, and manage layouts and content remotely.

The platform enables various configurations, from a single small widget display to larger, multi-screen setups. Example uses highlighted include a Pixel phone running a clock, a phone or PC serving as a Split-Flap screen updated via JSON API, and displays showing weather widgets or looping media. The pairing process is handled through the browser, allowing multiple devices to be arranged and synchronized as needed. Everything is managed from one controller interface, making it possible to build and control live screen setups without specialized hardware or software downloads.

ScreenWall is aimed at individuals or organizations looking to extend the life of their existing devices by turning them into functional displays for information, ambiance, or signage. It is suitable for use in personal spaces, offices, or shared environments where synchronized information displays are useful. The software operates entirely within the browser, requiring no dedicated app installation on the reused devices.
