The AWTRIX 3 system comes equipped with several built-in applications, including Time, Date, Temperature, Humidity, and Battery status.
As it is designed to integrate seamlessly with your smart home ecosystem, additional applications can be created using MQTT or HTTP requests.

!> In AWTRIX, the term 'Apps' does not refer to traditional smartphone apps that you download and install. Instead, in AWTRIX, CustomApps function more like dynamic pages that rotate within the App loop of the display. These pages do not store or execute their own logic; instead, they display content that is sent from an external system, such as a smarthome. This content must be transmitted using MQTT or HTTP protocols via the [CustomApp API](https://blueforcer.github.io/awtrix3/#/api?id=custom-apps-and-notifications).

It is important to note that all the logic for managing the content displayed in these CustomApps needs to be handled by your external system. AWTRIX only provides the platform for displaying the information. You have the flexibility to update the content shown on your CustomApps in real-time at any moment, making it a versatile tool for displaying personalized information in your smarthome setup.

There are numerous benefits to this approach:
