Feature Request: Short Message in Guest Mode Screen

I would like to know if it is possible to send a short message to the TV Guest Mode Screen?
I know that you can personalize a greeting, but it is possible to send a short message like an alert or "paging" message system.  It would be great for Hotels and guest houses.

If it is not possible, how can I suggest ROKU staff to incorporate that feature in a new OS update?

  • There is a suggestion forum here on the site. Repost there.

    This kind of functionality would be within the capabilities of a screensaver app, developed using Roku SDK (freely available).

    Someone may have created one already, do a search. 

    Maybe someone now will, since you have written a good idea.

      I search if there is already an option but I did not find the way to do it.  I hope Roku team add that feature to the Guest Mode. In addition to the Guest Mode's Custom Greeting, being able to send a short alert message to the screen will add value and utility to Guest Mode.
