Frequently Asked Questions

Getting Started

What do I need to run TickrDash?

Any device with a modern web browser works — a tablet, a smart TV browser, or a computer connected to a display. For the best experience on a TV, install the TickrDash app from the Google Play Store (Android TV and Google TV) or the Apple App Store (iPhone and iPad).

How do I sign in?

You can sign in with your Google, Apple, or Microsoft account. Whichever provider you choose, your settings and subscription are tied to your email address — so use the same account each time.

How do I control what the ticker shows?

Everything is managed from the Control Panel. Turn leagues on or off, follow specific teams, add conference or division standings, set up weather for your ZIP codes, and enable extras like stock quotes, golf leaderboards, tennis, and F1. The ticker updates automatically as soon as you save — no restart needed.

Using the Ticker

How often do scores update?

Scores refresh continuously while games are live — typically within a minute of the action. The ticker stays connected in real time, so updates appear on screen without any interaction from you.

What is the Smart Scoreboard?

Regular game cards show one game at a time for the teams you follow. The Smart Scoreboard is a high-density slide showing up to eight games from a league at once. You can scope it to every game, just your teams, or — for college sports — ranked (Top 25) matchups.

What do "Today Only" and "Live Only" do?

"Today Only" limits the rotation to games happening today, hiding yesterday's finals and upcoming games on other days. "Live Only" goes further and shows only games that are currently in progress. Leave both off to see everything in your poll window — recent finals, live games, and upcoming matchups.

Why did a finished tennis match disappear from the rotation?

When you have ATP or WTA enabled but aren't following any players, tennis match cards appear only while a match is live. The moment it finishes, the card leaves the rotation — this keeps a busy tournament day from flooding your ticker with dozens of finished matches. Completed matches remain visible on the tennis Smart Scoreboard slide.

To keep a finished match in the rotation for the rest of the day, follow one of its players (Control Panel → Tennis → follow players).

Will my screen stay on?

Yes. While the ticker is displayed, TickrDash asks the device to keep the screen awake, so your tablet or TV won't dim or sleep mid-game. If your device still sleeps, check that its battery-saver settings aren't overriding the app.

Can I pause the ticker on one slide?

Yes — tap the slide counter at the bottom of the screen to pause the rotation on the current slide (it changes to a pause icon). Tap it again to resume, and use the left and right edges of the screen to move between slides manually at any time.

Account & Billing

How do I change or cancel my plan?

We want to make it as easy to cancel as it is to sign up! Plans and billing are managed from your account after signing in.

  1. You must sign in to tickrdash.com (not the Android or IOS app)
  2. Open the control panel, click on "Manage Subscription" in the top right of the screen. This takes you to our Stripe billing page.
  3. Click on your Active Plan at the top, then click "Cancel Plan".

You can always contact us if you need a hand with anything billing-related.

I run a bar or venue — is there a plan for multiple screens?

Yes. TickrDash works great across multiple TVs, and we work with bars and venues directly. Check out the Bars & Venues page or get in touch for details.
