# What is Screen Keep

URL: https://www.screenkeep.com/what-is-screen-keep/

A plain-language explanation of Screen Keep: what it does, what it runs on, what it costs, and what it deliberately is not.

## Quick answer

Screen Keep is a digital signage app for Android TV and Google TV. It displays webpages, dashboards, menus, schedules, and event pages on TV screens, and adds signage controls like auto-refresh, URL scheduling, fallback behavior, and optional online management around the page you already have.

## What Screen Keep does

- Shows any webpage on a TV: menus, dashboards, schedules, promo pages, event pages, internal tools, and direct web/video URLs.
- Keeps the screen current with auto-refresh, URL scheduling by time of day, and fallback behavior for unattended screens.
- Runs on Android TV and Google TV devices, from inexpensive streaming boxes to TVs with the platform built in.
- Prices to the job: free evaluation, a $39.95 one-time purchase for one device with no subscription, a subscription from $2.08/mo billed annually, and a 7-Day Event Pass for short events.

## What Screen Keep is not

- Not a full digital signage CMS: no template libraries, asset pipelines, playlists, zones, or approval workflows.
- Not an app for Apple TV (tvOS), iOS, Roku, or Fire TV today. It is built for Android TV and Google TV, with a direct APK download for other Android-based devices.
- Not a content builder: the webpage stays the source of truth wherever it already lives.
- Not a casting workflow: the TV loads the page itself, with no phone or laptop needed nearby.

## Requirements

- An Android TV or Google TV device that can install apps from Google Play, or another Android-based device via direct APK download.
- Network connectivity for the TV device.
- A webpage or stable URL to display.
