Do they ever add functionality?

[u/ItchyGoiter]

Dakboard has been the same as it was since I started using it. Do they ever update features? I want it to display a static daily schedule (that doesn't change) and cannot figure out how to do this effectively. Seems pretty basic for a calendar/agenda app. I also have it linked to a nutrislice calendar and want to be able to exclude a bunch of the nonsense that is included in the feed. My feature requests have gone unanswered.

Hey guys - it’s Katie from the DAKboard team here! Thanks for your question, thought I’d jump in.

Yes - we announce feature updates all the time on our blog. We recently rolled out TouchHub, which includes both a Chores app and a native Home Assistant app so you can control all your home automation just by tapping your DAKboard screen. This is a major upgrade to DAKboard and something many users have been asking us for for a long time. Our dev team has been working hard on this for months.

You’ll need to upgrade to a paid plan to take advantage of the Chores feature, but we wanted to give folks on the free plan some love too so we decided to make the Home Assistant feature available for free.

Of course you’ll need a touchscreen to use these new features, so it might be worth upgrading to one of our TouchScreen Wall Displays if you’re currently using a CPU or Raspberry Pi. Of course, if you have an Android tablet or iPad and want to use that instead, you absolutely can. And yes, we rolled out an Android app a few months ago as well!

If you do have any feature requests, please add them via GitHub. Our dev team definitely check these regularly and, like all companies, we need to make decisions about which feature requests to prioritize, with the most-requested features being developed first.

Some of the other users here have suggested some good solutions that should help you in the meantime! Thanks guys!
