What is NexBoard?
NexBoard is a Nexudus app that can turn your tablets into room displays. Customers can see the resource's availability and book that resource directly from the app or via the Passport app. The app is available on Google Play and the App Store
How NexBoard Works
You first need to purchase one tablet per resource you want to connect to NexBoard. You can use the app to connect multiple resources, but each resource needs its own tablet.
For example, you can connect NexBoard to 5 resources using the same admin account as long as you set up the app on 5 different tablets.
Tablet Requirements
You need at least one tablet meeting the requirements detailed below to use NexBoard. You can choose to set up several tablets with NexBoard if you want more than one point of sale in your space.
For the best experience, choose consumer tablets (not enterprise or kiosk models) from established brands with access to the App Store or Google Play.
We recommend tablets under 5 years old to ensure they continue receiving regular OS updates that keep our app running smoothly. See the detailed requirements below.
| Screen size | WiFi | Bluetooth | OS version |
|---|---|---|---|
9 to 12 inches for optimal display (7 inches minimum) |
Tablets must be able to connect to WiFi. | Tablets must support Bluetooth 4.0 (also known as BLE) or above. | iPadOS - Version 15.6 or later Android - Version 12 or up |
Try to find a balance between the tablet requirements and your budget. Newer tablets cost more upfront but support the latest OS for longer. Older or refurbished models can be a more affordable starting point, just keep in mind they may need replacing sooner.
FAQ
Can I use the same admin account for multiple tablets?
