Why teams choose portrait screens
Portrait orientation fits tall spaces and tall content. A screen turned on its side reads like a poster, so it suits promotions, menus and directories that people scan on the move.
Fits tight, tall spaces
Pillars, entrances, shop windows and lift lobbies are often too narrow for a landscape screen. A portrait display fits where a wide one cannot.
Reads like a poster
People already know how to read a portrait poster. Menus, promotions and directories feel natural the tall way up.
Either orientation, any screen
Fugo runs the same way in portrait or landscape. Rotate the display, match your content to it, and publish.
Design in the browser
Build portrait content in Design Studio or start from a template. No design software and no separate export step.
Manage every screen from one place
Group portrait screens by location, push content to all of them at once, and see which are online from one dashboard.
Runs on the players you own
Fugo is hardware-agnostic. Use the media players and commercial displays you already have, so long as the display can rotate.
Best use cases for portrait screens
Most portrait deployments fall into a handful of patterns. Start with one and add more as you see what gets attention.
Digital posters and promotions
Full-height campaign creative in windows, entrances and aisle-ends that changes without a reprint.
Menu boards
Tall menu columns for cafes, quick-service and counters, with day-parting for AM and PM menus.
Wayfinding and directories
Building directories and directional signage that read cleanly in a portrait column.
Retail and shelf-edge
Product highlights and offers at the point of decision, sized to fit narrow retail spaces.
Lobby and welcome screens
Portrait welcome screens by the front desk that greet visitors and show what’s on today.
Notices and announcements
Company notices, event schedules and safety information in corridors and shared spaces.
Design and run portrait screens in Fugo
Everything you need to build portrait content and keep it running, without design skills or IT support.

Design portrait content in the browser
Set the canvas to portrait and build tall layouts in Design Studio. Add text, images, video and live zones, then publish — no separate design tool required.

Start from a template
Skip the blank page. Begin from a portrait template for posters, menus and directories, then drop in your branding.

Menus, wayfinding and welcome screens
Run the same portrait content across menus, wayfinding and lobby welcome screens — each scheduled to the right place and time of day.

Manage every portrait screen across sites
Group screens by location, schedule and day-part content, and rely on uptime monitoring with automatic recovery to keep every portrait screen live.
