Get an IAdea player running Fugo
Before you start, connect the player to your screen over HDMI, join it to Wi-Fi or Ethernet, and update it to the latest firmware. Then install Fugo by sideloading the APK — it usually gives better results than pointing the player at the Fugo URL.
Sideload the Fugo APK
Download the Fugo Player APK to the IAdea player — you can use the device’s built-in Chrome browser, so no USB stick is needed. Sideloading the APK usually yields better results than setting the Fugo player URL in the player’s Content Settings, then set ai.fugo.player to launch on startup and press Play.

Pair your screen
Once Fugo is running, the player shows a unique six-digit pairing PIN on screen. Log in to Fugo CMS, click Add Screens, and enter that PIN to connect the player to your account.

Publish and manage remotely
Name your screen, build playlists, and schedule content — then monitor every IAdea player from a single cloud dashboard. Updates and content changes push over the air, so you never have to touch the hardware again.
A full digital signage software suite
Your IAdea player handles playback on screen, while Fugo CMS gives you everything you need to create, schedule, and manage content across every location.

Design content without leaving Fugo
Build screen-ready posters, menu boards, and welcome screens in the built-in Design Studio, or start from a free industry template. No third-party design tool required — everything lives in one place.

Pull in the content you already have
Upload images and video, or connect live apps and TV dashboards — social walls, Looker, Power BI, Tableau, menus, and more — so your screens always show current information.

Schedule and prioritise with ease
Set playlists to run on a recurring schedule, or push urgent content across the network with priority takeovers. Plan seasonal campaigns weeks ahead and let Fugo publish them automatically.

Manage every screen from the cloud
Group, tag, and filter screens to run a large network from one dashboard. Monitor which players are online, publish to the right locations, and keep your IAdea players in sync with the rest of your fleet.
Supported today, but not our pick for new buys
IAdea makes solid professional media players, and Fugo runs on them. We just no longer recommend buying IAdea for a new deployment — outside the two recommended models, performance isn’t optimised for Fugo. Here’s the honest picture so you can decide with your eyes open.
Great if you already own one
Already have IAdea players on the wall? You can pair them with Fugo and manage them alongside the rest of your fleet from the cloud. There’s no need to rip and replace hardware that still works — connect it and keep publishing.
Two models we still recommend
The XMP-8552 and XMP-8550 are the IAdea players we recommend for use with Fugo. They give the smoothest experience of the range — though even these two we no longer recommend as brand-new purchases in 2026.
Not tuned for new purchases
Outside the recommended models, performance isn’t optimised for Fugo, and older units can behave inconsistently. For a fresh rollout, a modern Android media player or a commercial display will give you a smoother, better-supported experience than a new IAdea unit.
