Test view menu while building

Hello,  I am new to Toast and am currently building a menu for our new restaurant.  I think I have figured out modifiers and pre modifiers but would like to look at how it will appear on the terminal, which we don't have yet.  Is there a way to see the layout from my PC or do I have to keep building the menu and hope it all works out once the equipment is installed?

Best thing to do is use an android emulator on PC while setting up menu, especially if you don't have equipment yet. Here is a guide on getting that setup with BlueStacks https://central.toasttab.com/s/article/Bluestacks-Download-Guide

I just double checked on the setting at our business. The log-in credentials should be the same as a the ones you use to log onto Toast Web. I'm not sure if it has something to do with ongoing service disruption at the time.

Normal for it to ask for a login on first install, just like setting up a new device, any login with backend access will work. Is this windows or mac? 

Hi rcmk,

I am using Windows. 

It's possible windows or third party app is blocking the app player internet connection, an easy way to make sure  you have a connection is to close the toast app (click home button on the app player, bottom right) and open the chrome browser in the app player and see if you can get to a website.

I just intentionally blocked bluestacks and got the same result. oops.png
