LICENSING: $1.99 / device To purchase enterprise licenses, contact us. Free Version - displays BC weather only Note: Intended for enterprise digital signage use; not intended to be used on the home screen of your Android device.

Video Kiosk supports digital signage using either a full screen or a split screen layout. In the split screen layout, three areas can host standard Android App Widgets. While there are literally thousands of App Widgets available, there wasn’t a vertical, portrait view, Weather Widget that fit nicely in Widget Area B. So, we wrote one. Video Kiosk Weather Widget runs on Android 4 or later and is compatible with any Android Device.
