Hardware compatibility
Tigermeeting aims to support all Android devices from version 4.1 and upwards on all common architectures: x86, x86_64, armeabi-v7a, arm64-v8a.
There are targeted products, specially designed for digital signage and meeting room management.
Hardware manufacturers often provide proprietary APIs or SDKs to communicate with the device and utilize those hardware specific features. – like LED lights, silent APK upgrade etc.
Tigermeeting has integrated with some of the major digital signage manufacturer’s devices. This integration is mostly dependent on the vendor APIs’ capabilities; therefore, not all functionality is available on all devices.
NOTE: All - not hardware related – pure Tigermeeting application functionality is available on all devices – that include, all calendar booking functionality, theme and background change, on-premises management, analytics, logs, Admin app compatibility etc. (read more about Tigermeeting features in the Admin User manual)

Legend:
OK - the functionality is supported
No - the vendor API allows the functionality, but it is not implemented by Tiger, for various reasons.
n/a - Not applicable – there is no API or permission to perform the operation.
* - the SW/APK upgrade can be triggered but on-screen approval is needed
- - Seamless SW/APK upgrade is available via the Appstores
^ - the hardware supplier pushes out the upgrade independently from Tigermeeting.
+ - after reboot interact with AppStart to pause the Play operation
~ - use Philips CMND technology instead. Read more at https://cmnd.io
= - using screen pinning. Read the device manual
Compatibility matrix notes:
- The Others column represent all other arbitrary Android devices. It means that you can take any Android tablet or mobile phone and expect those functionalities to work.
- The Others group includes also all other excellent digital signage manufacturers’ devices that Tigermeeting has not finished the full hardware integration yet (like Kramer, Black Box, Yealink, iiyama, Crestron, Harman, Neat, Samsung, Cisco, Asus ).
- App-store support means default or optional availability of Android application stores, like Google Play, Amazon appstore, HUAWEI AppGallery, SAMSUNG Galaxy Store, Xiaomi GetApp / Mi App Mall, VIVO V-Appstore, OPPO Store, ONE Store, Transsion Palmstore, Aptoide and similar applications
- read more about the listed manufacturers in the "Who's who in the zoo" chapter in the Android setup manual.
NOTE:
If you have some excellent hardware, great screens with attractive features that Tigermeeting does not support yet.
Please, talk to us – we are happy to integrate and add your screen icon to the Tigermeeting app.
The integration would be - most probably - a piece of cake, as the Tigermeeting Android APK is very modular, built and designed with care, using excellent software architecture patterns.
Not to mention the experience and technical knowledge that accumulated during the previous manufacturers' integrations.
For example: Tiger APK has a full support for the wide range of Rockchip and ShiMeta chipsets and supports the most common LED controllers like the zigbee_reset, serial port, jnielc, adwdev socket... and many other proprietary APIs.
In exact numbers, Tigermeeting supports:
- 20 different Android APIs (versions 16..36)
- 16 different hardware vendor APIs
- 8 different integrated SDKs
- 8 different LED controllers
- 9 NFC/RFID technologies
- 4 hardware architectures
- 7 different GPIO APIs
- 8 different chipsets
- 1 scanner
Our strategic alliances with nearshore, offshore, and Far East branded and OEM manufacturers allow us to deliver quality, agility, and innovation on a global scale.
Please, talk to us, and let's shine up more meeting rooms, offices and school corridors together.
