World and local news on your screens.
Keep people informed with top headlines. Choose a country and a category and POMP keeps the stories current.
Amazon Fire TV, Samsung and LG apps are coming soon.
How it works
Add a World & Local News screen, choose a country and a category, and POMP shows the current top headlines with their source and how long ago they were published. Stories are fetched on the server and refreshed about every 30 minutes, so screens stay current without anyone curating them.
Headlines are short enough to read from across a room. On newer players the screen shows a lead story large with the next few headlines beside it, then rotates through them while the screen is up.
Run several news screens in one playlist for a mix, such as New Zealand general news followed by world sport, and use scheduling to show business headlines in the morning and entertainment in the afternoon.
