Install impressPlayer on an Android device

This covers Android tablets and media players. (Android-TV brands — Philips, Hikvision, Iiyama — and Smart TVs — LG, Samsung — have their own pages.)

1. Factory reset the device

Open Settings → General → Reset → Factory Reset (the exact path varies by device). Alternatively, reset from the device's boot menu.

2. Enter hidden QR-code mode

On the device's start screen, tap anywhere 7 times to activate the hidden QR-code scanner.

3. Scan the setup QR code

Scan the QR code provided by impressBox or the one given to you by your administrator.

4. Complete initial setup

Follow the on-screen instructions:

• Accept the terms and conditions.

• Connect the device to a Wi-Fi network.

• If prompted for a URL, choose Scan QR and scan the QR code again.

• If asked for a name, use the format %user%_%identifier% — for example, impressbox_mindaugo001.

5. Link impressPlayer to your account

Open m.impressbox.eu on another device (computer or phone). Connect impressPlayer by entering the numbers shown on the screen, or by scanning the QR code generated in the app. See Connect a new screen with its activation code.

Kiosk mode: Android players usually run locked in kiosk mode so users can't exit to the home screen. To leave kiosk mode for maintenance, see Exiting kiosk mode on Android.
