Your queues presented on the screen. Banking, customer service or maybe general questions? Make it clear for your customers to choose the queue they want to end up in. Customize the layout yourself in q-admin so that you get your logo, background image and style of text represented in the app. The app is paired with a printer that prints queue tickets with the current number.
