Hello superstars! Brendan here, back with an update to kiosk mode. This one significantly increases the usefulness of kiosk mode. Let's dive in.

Not here to check-in?

Not a problem.

You can now define a custom URL for "other actions" during check-in. Tapping this button will pop up the URL, right inside the app. Here's an example with an URL I've prepared earlier:

One of the cool things about this pop up is that it will automatically close, but only after 25 seconds of inactivity. So, it keeps it open if someone's half way through contacting you, but closes it if they walk away so the next person just sees the main kiosk mode screen!

What can I use it for?

As the URL goes to a page you control, you can literally do anything with it! But our favourite uses include:

  • Linking to your online booking page
  • Offering a way to leave a message
  • Offering a page of frequently asked questions

If you're wondering how to set it up, please visit our article explaining the ins and outs.


That's it for now. As always, keep being awesome!
