by9am Family Hub

Your home, on the wall.

A calm, always-on screen for the kitchen — the shared calendar, the shopping list, what's for dinner, who's where today. Kept up to date by by9am through the night, so the whole family wakes up on the same page. It arrives built, installed and ready: hang it, plug it in, done.

01 — UNBOX

It comes ready

We build it, mount the bracket, install by9am and lock it to your family screen — before it ships. No setup, no app store, no fiddling.

02 — HANG & PLUG IN

Five minutes

Pop it on the wall, plug in the tidy charger, scan one code to link it to your by9am. That's the whole install.

03 — IT JUST RUNS

Always on, never in the way

It wakes as you walk up and rests when the room's empty. The calendar, lists and plans stay current on their own.

The questions

Everything you'd want to know

What is the by9am Family Hub?

A beautiful tablet, pre-built as a wall screen for your family. Instead of apps, it shows one calm dashboard — your shared calendar, the running shopping list, the week's plan, what's for dinner, the kids' activities — all in one glance by the kitchen door.

It's powered by by9am, your personal assistant, so it isn't a dumb calendar you have to keep feeding. It keeps itself up to date.

Do I have to set it up?

No. This is the whole point. It arrives built and installed — the screen, the wall mount, the charger and the software are all done for you. You hang it up, plug it in, and scan one code to connect it to your by9am. Five minutes, no technical anything.

How does it stay up to date by itself?

It's a live window into your by9am, not a copy. Add a couple of things to the shopping list from your phone on the train and they're on the wall before you're home. by9am sorts the week overnight, so the morning view is already right.

And it works both ways: tick off the milk on the wall screen and it updates everywhere — phone, laptop, everyone's view.

What exactly does it show?

By default, the family essentials: the shared calendar, the shopping list, today's plan, meals and family notes. You choose what appears — add the school run, swap in a chores chart, a countdown to the holiday. The kitchen screen stays family-only; your work inbox and finances never show here unless you put them there.

Is it private? It's a screen everyone can see.

Yes — and that's handled on purpose. The Hub only shows the household-safe modules you've chosen. More importantly, your family's information lives on your own private by9am, not on our servers and not pooled with anyone else. The Hub is just a window onto data you own.

What's the hardware?

A quality 10–11" tablet with a tidy wall mount and an always-on charger, locked to the by9am screen so it can't wander off into apps or updates. It wakes on movement and dims when the room's empty — bright when you need it, calm when you don't, easy on the panel and the power bill.

Do I need an by9am membership?

Yes. The Hub is one of the surfaces of your by9am — the same assistant you reach on your phone and laptop, just shown on the wall. The Hub is a one-time device; your by9am membership is what makes it (and everything else) work.

Can I move it, or take it with me?

It's yours — move it to another room, take it when you move house, factory-reset it whenever you like. Nothing about it is locked to us.

What if I already have a spare tablet?

Use it. We publish a free step-by-step guide to turn any Fire or Android tablet into an by9am Family Hub yourself in about half an hour. The paid Hub simply does all of that for you, in a nicer package, with nothing to figure out.
