> Cove’s Display Management feature allows you to easily create and manage building displays directly from your dashboard. These web-based displays can be used to showcase highlights, events, or building directories on TVs or digital signage throughout your property.

> To show your Cove content, your display must have Internet access in one of the following ways:
> 
> Smart TV with an Internet connection and a built-in browser
> 
> Recommended for buildings with a few displays
> 
> Note: compatibility may vary by manufacturer, as each Smart TV uses its own native browser
> 
> Digital signage device such as Airtame
> 
> Recommended for buildings/campuses with several directories so that they can be managed remotely
