Where are my design dashboards?

By default they are in DisplayPeek's own folder, and four samples are created on first launch. Use the folder button in the sidebar to choose another folder, or + to create a new file. Any .html file in the folder appears in the list.

What can a design dashboard contain?

A plugin fragment (view or layout markup), a screen snippet, or a full HTML document. Fragments are wrapped in a screen automatically. The preview reloads every time you save.

The preview is blank

Previews load the display framework from the internet, so check your connection, then press Reload (⌘R).

How do I add a live device?

Click Add Device… under My Devices in the sidebar and enter your device API key. You find the key in your device settings on the service's website, under developer options. The key is stored in the macOS Keychain.

Does DisplayPeek change what my device shows?

No. It only asks for the screen your device is currently showing. The Next screen button is the one exception: it advances your device's playlist, just like the button on the device.

How often does the live screen refresh?

Each device refreshes at its own refresh rate, between 30 seconds and 15 minutes. Use Refresh to check now.

Can I change how many history screens are kept?

Yes, in Settings. Only screens that changed are saved, and older ones are deleted when you lower the limit.
