There are two main ways staff can clock in: a shared kiosk (tablet near the entrance) or their own phone/browser.
Option 1: Kiosk mode (recommended)
- Open NestedClock on a tablet or computer.
- Navigate to the Kiosk screen for your shop.
- Leave it running — staff walk up, tap their name, enter their PIN, done.
- Use guided access (iPad) or screen pinning (Android) to lock the browser.
Option 2: Staff self-service portal
- Staff sign in to their own portal — on the web, or the NestedClock mobile app (iOS & Android).
- On the web they can clock in and out with their PIN; the mobile app focuses on self-service.
- Either way they can view their roster and timesheet, see payslips, request leave or shift swaps, and message their manager.
Staff accounts are created by the admin; staff sign in rather than registering themselves.
Optional features
- Photo verification (Starter+): Captures a photo on every clock event.
- GPS tracking (Professional+): Records location coordinates on every clock event.
