The ‘Full Screen mode’ could become more useful for presenting reports on dedicated large screens if it became just a bit more dynamic. Whilst it is currently possible to scroll through report sheets by clicking the arrows in the bottom right corner, it would be most valuable to be able to automate such browsing. A solution could be to introduce a “Play” button that starts a slideshow scrolling through the available report sheets according to a customizable time interval.

This is now available in the Windows Power BI app! Check out the details here: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/enhancing-presentation-mode-with-slideshow-in-windows-power-bi-app/

This feature will definitely be useful. The dashboard rotator is not working, extremely buggy.

RE: Slideshow in Full Screen/TV mode

Wouldn't it be possible to create a workaround for this, like a javascript injection with a timeout parameter to switch dashboard?

'That's definitelly something we need too.
- autoadvance function (with adjustable time)
- data refresh yes/no option (to select, if you want the data to be refreshed with each cycle)
- data refresh frequency (if previous option is "yes")

RE: Slideshow in Full Screen/TV mode

This is a good suggestion for some applications, but not all. I did a test and was impressed that when the data is refreshed (SQL, Import), the visuals on the app refresh too. Using the app will work IF all you plan to do is show ONE report or dashboard. This will NOT work for a rotating slideshow of reports, and will not work for digital signage containing other content (not just Power BI dashboards). Thanks for the helpful suggestion, but my votes remain.

Not again from Start to Planned status. Why it important to present in Full Screen.
