This custom screensaver feature through the mobile device app does work on most Apple and Android devices. However, it is not available to "all" mobile devices. (mine included). You should see under Media the options of Music, Photos, Videos, and Screensaver. If you are missing Screensaver option, then not available due to the mobile device's OS build.
As mentioned, a future update to Roku OS 11 will include PhotoStreams for this.
Currently, though, if you want to use a Custom Screensaver on your Roku device or RokuTV, you can try installing Google's PhotoView to your Roku. (https://channelstore.roku.com/details/637cbf48183a52820a32e8a7a8ff865a/photoview-for-google-photos)
This will allow you to browse your photos on your Roku device as well as use them for your Screensaver.
Thanks for this thread.
We are also a 20-room boutique hotel. Guest mode (n concept( is great, but I do not think it's for us given that we have paid apps that we subscribe to for guests. Those apps would not be easily accessible in Guest Mode.
Right now we use Roku TVs and have PINs set so guests are prevented from adding apps or making charges on the account. It's a system that works, but it definitely has its holes. Guest can mess with the settings and even defeat the PIN if they download and use the app.
What are other options hotels that wish to offer certain apps in a seamless and clear way to guests (customization and splash screens are a plus!)
