Since the Android version is distributed outside of the Google Play Store, you will need to allow installation from unknown sources:

- Open the downloaded file on your Android device
- If prompted, go to Settings > Install unknown apps and allow your browser or file manager to install apps
- Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the installation
Sign In
- Open the Selflane Displays app
- Sign in with your Selflane account credentials
- Select the business you want to display orders for
Subscription Requirement
Selflane Displays requires an active KDS subscription. If your subscription is not active, the app will show a subscription prompt instead of the order grid. Contact your account manager or visit the Back Office to manage your subscription.
Recommended Hardware
Selflane Displays works on any iOS or Android device, but for the best kitchen experience we recommend:
- Tablet — a 10” or larger screen for comfortable viewing at a distance
- Mounting — a wall or shelf mount to keep the display visible and out of the way of food prep
- Power — keep the device plugged in, as the always-on display will drain battery quickly
Before You Start
Make sure the following are configured in your Back Office or POS settings:
- Station numbers — assign station numbers to your POS devices so orders can be filtered by station on the display
- Print targets — set up kitchen printer targets (Kitchen, Kitchen 2/3/4, Bar, Label) so dishes route to the correct display
- Order types — ensure your order types (dine-in, pickup, delivery, drive-thru) are configured, as the display color-codes orders by type
