### Remote Management (v1.1)
- **Remote Configuration** 📡 — Fetch settings from a JSON endpoint (polls every 5 min)
- **Digital Signage Mode** 🖼️ — Auto-rotate through multiple URLs at configurable intervals
- **Usage Analytics** 📊 — Track page views, sessions, and admin access (local SQLite)
### UX
- **Error Handling** — Graceful network error pages with retry button
- **Loading Indicator** — Progress bar during page loads
