Screen limit reached or extra screens stopped playing
CanvasRelay gives an over-limit grace period before the newest extra screens receive a limit card; content is not deleted.
What you may be seeing
- A screen shows a screen-limit card or Settings → Billing says more paired screens than the plan allows.
What usually causes it
- The organization has more paired screens than its live_screen_count entitlement.
- The 7-day grace period expired while the organization remained over its limit.
Do this
- Open Settings → Billing and compare Screens used with Screens allowed.
- Either increase the paid screen quantity/plan or disconnect screens you no longer need.
- Once the organization is back within its limit, affected players resume normal content automatically on check-in.
You know it is fixed when
- Settings → Billing is within the allowed count and the affected screen no longer reports screenLimitExceeded/limit-card state.
Worth knowing
- CanvasRelay does not silently delete boards or content because you exceeded the screen count.
