Make time tracking versatile and convenient for your organization, thanks to NFC tag scanning capabilities in our Calamari Kiosk app.

Now, your employees can easily clock in and out by simply scanning NFC tags with their cards or keytags, providing an additional time-tracking option alongside our existing QR code system. Users can seamlessly switch between QR code and NFC scanning modes based on their preference or workplace setup.

For administrators, we've made implementation straightforward: NFC functionality can be enabled or disabled in the app settings according to your organization's needs.

Platform-specific experience:

  • On iOS devices: Due to Apple's security framework, the system displays a brief notification when initiating an NFC scan
  • On Android devices: The NFC scanning process flows more seamlessly without additional system prompts
