Your phone
iPhone — running iOS 16 or later. Check in Settings → General → About.
Android — any phone with Chrome. Add the dashboard to your home screen. How →
iPad — not yet. The app is built for phones.
Your TV
Something to put the board on the wall.
A TV with Chromecast built in, or any TV with a Chromecast stick plugged in.
Or a computer plugged into the TV — open your board's web address in full screen and leave it there. No casting needed.
Apple TV and Fire Stick — can't be cast to. A computer plugged into the TV works instead.
Your phone and your TV need to be on the same Wi-Fi. Guest networks usually block them from seeing each other.

Apple Watch is coming. Other watches after that. Tell us what your
class wears at support@pulsedeck.tv and it helps us decide what's next.
Your gym's internet
Watches send heart rate over the athlete's phone connection, so they don't need your Wi-Fi.
The TV needs internet, and the same Wi-Fi as your phone for casting.
