Hello, I need a tablet on the wall for the ActionTiles. But I want the tablet to charge when is on the wall. Like in a dock station. And the tablet to be easy unmount from the wall to use it from the hand. Is there any tablet optimized like this for Home Automation? Do you have any recommendation? Thank you. ---

most folks end up with an Amazon Fire Tablet with a recessed USB Outlet behind. Check the ActionTiles thread for ideas… ---

My suggestion is to use a microusb to wireless charging receiver, mount a wireless charging pad to the wall, install some magnets on the wall, and put some thin steel plates on the back of the tablet. Any tablet that can view a webpage (so any tablet, basically) should work. Get one that has the most current android OS you can, preferably 6.0 or newer. I use a Dragon Touch S8 tablet because it was cheap, and I didn’t know if I was going to keep it or use something else or whatever. It does the job nicely though. Fully Kiosk browser is basically a must though for auto-wake screen on camera motion. ---

Following this closely; though I ought to send out a **poll** to all our Customers, we hate to generate too much email that may be considered SPAM. I’m certain that the Fire Tablets are the most popular; but **_there must be a “2nd most popular” one in use, right?_** 🤔 😕. We’re going to add some analytics to the app (someday…) to get at just the minimal information the browser will reveal about the system it is running on. ---

(9 of them) and I wanted to use them all for actiontiles around the house. I wanted to get the software side working first, and after a little research I found some scripts that I combined to make an almost “one touch” option for for clearing the bloat off of the tablets, and setting it up for use with action tiles and LANnouncer. It takes about 5-7 minutes a tablet to run the script, but its removing and adding a lot of stuff! The script removes all of the amazon apps, and loads google play, and other google services. It installs nova launcher, to replace the firelauncher, and loads launcher hijacker so you can use it. next it installs Fully Kiosk browser so you can set actiontiles as the home screen.
