viewneo for Android

The viewneo Player App is the software that plays your content on the screen. It is pre-installed on all viewneo devices and can be installed manually on other Android-based platforms.

Installation

viewneo devices

The Player App is pre-installed on all viewneo SignageBoxes and the Qbic FHD-100. The app starts automatically after the device is switched on.

APK Installation on Other Android Devices

For third-party Android devices, you can install the Player App as an APK file:

Download viewneo Player for Android

The link always downloads the current version. This download is not meant for Philips D-Line displays – they have their own build, see the Philips D-Line tab.

1. Download the APK file using the button above
2. Transfer the APK file to the Android device (via USB drive or download)
3. Allow installation from unknown sources on the device (in the Android settings, usually under Security or Apps)
4. Open the APK file on the device
5. Confirm the installation

Note

You only need the APK for third-party devices. viewneo SignageBoxes update the Player App themselves, the Amazon Fire TV via the App Store.

Note

The full viewneo feature set is not guaranteed on third-party devices. Some features may be unavailable due to system restrictions.

Philips D-Line

Download viewneo Player for Philips D-Line

The link always downloads the current version. Philips displays need this build of their own; the general Android download does not fit here.

Prerequisites:

• Copy the downloaded APK file to a USB drive

APK Installation via Admin Mode

1. Connect the USB drive with the APK file to a USB port of the display
2. Press HOME 1 8 8 8 on the TV remote control in quick succession to open Admin Mode
3. Select Apps
4. Open the FileManager and navigate to the mnt folder
5. Open USB_storage, select the APK file and run it
6. Return to Admin Mode and select SignageDisplay
7. Navigate to Source Settings > Custom App and enable the viewneo Player App
8. Exit the menu and select Custom in the device’s source menu — the viewneo Player App starts

Alternative: Philips Wave (Remote Installation)

1. Log in to the Philips Wave platform
2. Add the viewneo Player APK for Philips D-Line as an app
3. Assign the app to your Philips display
4. The installation runs automatically over the network

Tip

Installing via Philips Wave is particularly efficient for multiple displays, as you can distribute the app centrally.

Amazon Fire TV

1. Open the viewneo Player in the Amazon App Store on your Fire TV Stick
2. Install the app
3. Open the app and log in with your viewneo credentials

Note

The Amazon Fire TV Stick offers limited functionality and is not suitable for professional 24/7 operation. For professional use, we recommend a dedicated viewneo player.

1. Log in to the CMS at cloud.viewneo.com
2. Under Devices, select the group the player should be added to
3. Click Activate device
4. Enter a device name and the activation code
5. Click Activate

For details, see Activate device.
