Start an APP when screen is touched

[am78fr]

Hello,

Here is my use case:

I would like to use XIBO on Philips 10" android devices in combination with a meeting room booking software.

So I would like this APP to run continously, switch to XIBO as a screensaver (I can do that)

BUT I would like XIBO to switch back to the APP when the screen is touched.

Is there any way to do this ?

Thanks,

Thank you for your message. Below is a link to a Guide which explains how to switch between apps. By default, clicking on the screen will reveal the Action bar menu at the top of the screen. It is possible to change this behaviour in the Display Profile you are using with your Player so that an Intent is run when the screen is clicked instead:

Switching Apps on Xibo for Android

By default, when the Android Player screen is clicked a menu bar, known as the Action Bar, appears at the top of the screen. Following the release of 1.8.11 a new option, named Run Intent, is available in the CMS. When Run Intent is set and the Action Bar Intent is set, touching the screen will run the configured intent and can be used to direct a user to an alternative application. Prior to set up Ensure that you have installed the following: Xibo CMS 1.8.11 or later Xibo for Android R10…

I hope this guide helps to provide a solution for your setup.

Many Thanks.
