Show the weather on your screens
Add live local weather to your galleries, as a small chip beside the clock or a full-screen slide, from one location you set once.
Last updated 25 July 2026
Billboard can show live local weather on your screens. It comes in two forms: a small chip that sits beside the clock, and a full-screen weather card that takes its own turn in the rotation. Both read from one location you set on your account.
Set your location first
Weather is off until you tell Billboard where you are.
- Open Account in your dashboard.
- Find the Weather location row and search for your city, suburb or town.
- Pick the right match from the list. You can also use Use my current location in a browser that allows it.
This is a single location for your whole account. Every screen shares it, so you set it once, not per gallery.
The chip: weather beside the clock
The chip is a small pill with the temperature and conditions, sitting in the top-right next to the clock.
- Open a gallery and go to Settings.
- Turn on Show the weather.
Any gallery with the toggle on shows the chip. Turn it off for galleries where you'd rather keep the screen clean.
The card: a full weather slide
The card is a full-screen slide with the temperature, the conditions, and a short line of practical advice, like "Dry but cold. Take a jacket."
- Open a gallery and choose Add content.
- Add a Weather card.
It lands in the running order like any other item and takes its own turn between your photos. You can drag it to reorder it, or remove it, just like a photo.
Good to know
- One location, every screen. Weather is account-wide, not per gallery. If you run screens in different cities, they'll all show the location you set.
- The advice line is genuine local guidance. It looks a short way ahead, so it tells you whether it will rain, not just whether it's raining now.
- Nothing to maintain. Billboard fetches the weather for you and keeps it fresh. You never touch it after setup.
