I didnt know this was a thing. But looked interesting so thought i would install on my Pi to give it a go, which i have installed the CLi version and its fine. Have you tried installing cli see if that works? Dont see much reason for a gui tbh

Ok, well if ya not stuck on rapsbian , i highly recomend dietpi. Though theres no desktop as deafult. You would use putty to use it from another PC. But we can try make raspbian work first if ya like

@personality1259 was just a cheap photo frame off ebay for me to create a template, gunna get some descent wood and make some better ones at a later date . Used a dremel to make some keyhole mounts on the back to hang it aswell

I have this working on mac with the desktop version. With 6 G. Homes mini around I use this app as speaker/alarm. Downstairs if someone broke in my house my minis shout a lot of dog barking and upstairs the rest of the minis play a siren sound. Sometimes a time out broke the app and I have to restart it manually.
