Cloud-based digital signage platform for managing screens, playlists and content

The app catalogue keeps widening while the platform underneath it gets reworked

digital-signagescreen-appsmedia-libraryplaybackmonthly-digestmarketing
Current state
Juuno is a digital signage platform that ships one consolidated release note per month, and the August 2026 edition is catalogue growth plus plumbing. Three more screen apps arrive — Clock, While You Wait and WiFi QR — alongside major Media Library work and drag-and-drop uploads directly into playlists and configuration modals. The Yelp app, launched to beta only two months earlier, has been pulled while the team reworks it.
Where it's heading
The arc through 2026 is a signage vendor building out a library of small, self-contained screen apps and then repeatedly returning to fix the surfaces that host them — playlists, scenes, schedules and the media library. Commercially the direction is already set: Screen Analytics went out free in beta in March explicitly destined for a paid tier, and the Growth plan shipped in July. August adds no pricing news and instead spends its length on app configuration consistency and a long list of playback and layout fixes.
Prediction
Expect the Yelp app to return from its pause and more single-purpose screen apps to follow the Clock and WiFi QR pattern. Whether Screen Analytics moves behind the Growth plan is the open question these notes do not answer.

Recent moves

  1. 18d ago

    Clock, WiFi QR and waiting-screen apps land; Yelp pulled

    Three more single-purpose screen apps — Clock, While You Wait and WiFi QR — extend a catalogue that already spans weather, social, Canva and Countdown, keeping to the pattern of small additions rather than new capability. The more consequential work is underneath: major Media Library improvements, drag-and-drop uploads straight into playlists and configuration modals, and a pass over app configuration consistency. The Yelp app, in beta since June, is temporarily withdrawn for rework.

    Growth plan ships alongside Schedules overhaul

    ⚡ SPARK

    The month Juuno's tiered pricing became real: the Growth plan shipped, giving the free Screen Analytics beta a destination and moving the company past flat per-screen billing. Schedules received major improvements alongside a long tail of video and scene playback fixes.

  3. 2mo ago

    Yelp app enters beta; dark mode arrives in admin

    The Yelp app entered beta and dark mode reached the admin, both of which August revisits — Yelp by being withdrawn for rework. Sits in the steady middle of the year's pattern: one new app, incremental UI work, and fixes across schedules, sequences and social scenes.

  4. 3mo ago

    Maintenance month: Canva, Drive and social scene fixes

    A month with no new apps or capability, only a help widget, drag-and-drop changes and a list of fixes across Canva, Google Drive and social scenes. Notable mainly as the quiet gap between the Secured Dashboard beta and the Yelp beta.

  5. 5mo ago

    Secured Dashboard app opens in beta

    The Secured Dashboard app opened in beta and the Screens page gained multi-select, continuing the habit of shipping capability to beta first. The bulk of the note is corrective, clearing media library, signup and Canva breakage.

  6. 6mo ago

    Screen Analytics is here (Beta)

    ⚡ SPARK

    The origin of Juuno's move to tiered pricing: analytics shipped free in beta while being named as a future Growth plan feature, five months before that plan actually arrived in July. It also marks the point where the product started reporting on outcomes rather than only playing content.
