Instant messages to every screen
Real-Time Screen Announcements
Push a message to every screen in your masjid with a single click. Jumuah time change, last-minute notice, or community update. It appears everywhere in real time, with zero delay.
How this fits your masjid
Committees win trust when information moves quickly and calmly. Real-time announcements let an authorised volunteer flash a clear, respectful message to every paired screen — then return to normal content automatically.
Controlled urgency
Categories, colour cues, and expiry reduce panic and misinformation — especially for janazah, weather, or Jumuah changes.
No duplicate workflows
Announcements sit inside the same platform as prayer times and playlists — not a separate app nobody remembers to check.
Starter upward
Available from Starter — see pricing for screen counts and announcement capacity on your tier.
