![]() I'm using an OG pi1 I had laying around, but you can use any pi alternative or even an old laptop.Ģ) Any Monitor or TV that has versa mount holes. Then besides a Google Calendar display, and weather, I have mine connected to Home Assistant to show other data from various other Smart Devices.ġ) any device that you can install Magic Mirror on. Then I have it hooked up to an old monitor I wasn't using mounted to the wall with a monitor mount. From there you can download modules to add/connect to almost anything you want.įor my setup I'm using Magic Mirror installed on a Pi. ie using any monitor or TV you want as is.īut the true power of Magic Mirror is its module/plugin community. However, if you change the default brightness and color, you can use it with non mirror setups. The default setup for Magic Mirror is assuming it's behind a mirror. If however, you don't mind a little more setup, don't want the monthly fee, and/or want something with more options, Magic Mirror is the de facto free software for this. If you don't mind the monthly fee, and only ever want a calendar and weather, then Dakboard will provide that for you easily. * Its customization options are very limited when compared to Magic Mirror. * It has a monthly subscription fee to use and no free version. While Dakboard is a nice pay and forget solution, it does have some downsides that haven't been mentioned yet. If not as important for work and everything but it would be nice You have those things that I mentioned but it's more important for my family as my mom runs around cleaning business and my work schedule can vary quite frequently and it would be nice just to have something that people can look at on their phones as well as at home on a smart display or smart calendar Let me remove them from the iPad and then we'll go on with my day instead of trying to figure out everything out That way for somebody like myself who does closing doesn't need to go through and constantly remove items and find out we don't have itemsĪs it would be much easier just to know oh, these items are the stock. Since I work in a bakery that on the where it would have a calendar it would show what items are out of stock. Seeing the schedule and then not being able to ask the right people the right questions the day Also for work it would be nice. That way if there are any changes to the schedule everybody is aware of them and if they have any questions they can ask them instead of coming to work. That way everybody is aware of the schedule. All for reminders asking the weather and various other things, but having a calendar would be nice calendar that can show you different events and other things via like a shared Google calendar and everythingĪnother reason I want this to be something that is cheap is so that something like my job who puts up a paper schedule that people take a photo of people can use something like Google calendar and have like a little display that is magnetized to the wall that can be edited and everything. I also want this smart calendar to tell us the weather and have some smart functionality We have a Alexa but not the one with the screen and having an Alexis cooling. It would also allow her to see my mom's work schedule to know when my mom's working and everything like that ![]() I want it to be usable by everybody in the family both of my parents, my brother and myself, and if there is a smaller version that could be used for my grandmother that would be nice as I don't currently drive right now and having her be able to see my work schedule without having to send her the photo of the work schedule and everything would be great. Any doctors or dentist appointments, car appointments, or any other form of an appointment? I'm looking for this to be a overall calendar that can show when someone is working for the day. I want is the thinnest display that isn't like a chunky flat screen TV, but something that can sit nicely on the wall and display stuff from like Google calendar or proton clander ![]() I want the cheapest options that aren't going to send me into spending over or even close to $500
