FAQ:
Do I have to use a Fire Stick?
Yes, for now, the Screens App is only available on Fire Stick, making it simple to set up with a remote. However, there are plans to develop a web version in the future.
I have the current version of the Screens App. How do I get the new version of Screens?
With the new version of PushPress Screens live as of October 15, 2024, clients can simply search for “PushPress Screens” in the app store, look for the black and white Screens logo, and log in using admin credentials instead of a pairing code. Outdated versions may still require pairing codes; ensure your app is updated to access the latest features. Pairing Instructions
Device Compatibility & Requirements
The PushPress Screens app is currently supported on Fire Stick devices.
Amazon has begun shipping some Fire Stick models with its new Vega operating system, which the Screens app does not support yet. For the best experience, we recommend using one of these models:
Fire TV Stick 4K Plus
Fire TV Stick 4K Max
Please avoid models with “Select” in the name and the newer Fire TV Stick HD.
If you’ve already purchased a device and are experiencing issues, go to Settings → My Fire TV → About. If the software version begins with “1,” the device is running the new operating system and will need to be exchanged for one of the recommended models above.
Common Troubleshooting Steps
If you encounter issues with the Screens app such as crashes, display problems, or error messages, try these troubleshooting steps:
Force Stop the App: Navigate to your TV's settings, go to the 'Manage Applications' menu, and force stop the Screens App. Then, reopen the app.
Clear Cache and Data: On your Fire TV or Fire Stick, go to settings. Clear the app cache and, if necessary, clear all app data. Restart the device.
Power Cycle Your Device: Turn off the affected device and unplug it for at least 20 seconds before powering it back on.
Reinstall the Screens App: Uninstall the Screens app from your device. Reinstall it from the Amazon store and re-pair it if required.### Display and Content Configuration Issues If the app works on some devices but not others, check the following:
Check Pairing Code Issues: For updated app versions, log in using admin credentials instead of relying on a pairing code. If a pairing code appears but doesn't work, ensure it's used quickly before it expires or generate a fresh one by restarting the app.
Resolve "No Workouts Available" Error: Ensure the "Screens" option is enabled in the Train app for the desired program. Navigate to the program's settings in Train, turn on "Screens," and reload the app to display the workout updates.
Workout Programming Settings
Ensure the workout is published to Screens in PushPress Train.
Confirm that "Screens Enabled" is turned on for the workout.
Verify that the corresponding membership plan has access to the workout program.
For programs affected by the "No Workouts Available" error, open the Train app, select the specific program, and ensure the "Screens" option is toggled on. Reload the Screens app to reflect these updates.
TV Display Settings:
Check the TV's aspect ratio, picture size, and zoom settings.
Ensure these settings don't crop or distort the app's display.
Screen-Specific Errors:
If one TV displays a white screen or only part of the workout, verify the app version and clear its data.
Check if the problematic TV's Fire Stick is outdated or incompatible.
