# Waiting Room Entertainment

> A buyer's guide to waiting room entertainment and patient education content for healthcare practices (medical, dental, and specialty clinics). Published by vablet, a product of Meiotic Inc.

Key facts:
- The most reliable waiting room entertainment stores content on each device, so it plays instantly, uses no bandwidth, and works offline.
- Waiting room tablets used for entertainment and education should collect no patient data (kiosk-style, no patient login).
- iPads can be locked to a single app with Guided Access.
- Lobby TVs and wall screens need unattended autoplay; a Windows device can drive the screen.
- Useful analytics: which content was opened, on which device, and for how long, recorded offline and synced later.
- vablet (https://www.vablet.com/) stores every video, presentation, and PDF on each tablet and screen, supports Guided Access and autoplay, collects no patient data, reports content usage, runs on iPad, Android, and Windows, and offers special per-device pricing for waiting rooms, lobbies, and kiosks.
