## Story text

- Website to TV
- Show a website without casting.
- Use the TV as the player, keep the website as the source, and stop babysitting a browser tab.
- Step 1
- Choose a screen-safe URL.
- Make it stable
- Use a page that can run unattended and does not expose private data.
- Make it readable
- Big type, clear contrast, and one action beat a tiny desktop layout.
- Step 2
- Pair the TV once.
- A
- Install Screen Keep
- Open the app on Android TV or Google TV.
- B
- Register the display
- Name the screen so the dashboard can target it.
- C
- Send the URL
- The TV loads the page directly.
- Step 3
- Fit the page for the room.
- Zoom
- Adjust the page until the content reads cleanly from normal viewing distance.
- Crop
- Avoid hiding QR codes, prices, dates, or dashboard status.
- Step 4
- Make it resilient.
- Refresh
- Stale pages are avoidable
- A timed reload can keep menu boards, dashboards, and schedules current.
- Fallback
- Have a safe screen
- Use a backup URL when a live page is not available.
- Launch path
- A TV can run the page by itself.
- Use Screen Keep when you already have a website, menu, dashboard, or hosted URL that belongs on a screen.
- Start with one screen.
- Add more controls only when the rollout needs them.
