Real-time sync

Available
The Kitchen Display and Guest Display update within seconds via live subscriptions — here is exactly what is real-time and what refreshes on open.

What it does

  • KDS and Guest Display subscribe to live Supabase real-time events, so ticket and order-status changes appear within seconds of the POS dispatching them.
  • Polling fallbacks: KDS polls every 30 seconds; Guest Display polls every 15 seconds, so both stay current even if a WebSocket drops.
  • POS floor plan: tables and orders share the same live database. The floor plan refreshes when you open or navigate to it — it does not push live updates across POS terminals.
  • Data platform: Supabase (PostgreSQL + real-time) underpins all four apps; a schema change is reflected everywhere immediately.

FAQ

Not in real time — the POS floor refreshes when you open or return to the floor screen. For true live cross-terminal updates, use the KDS or Guest Display, which subscribe to live changes.
