✦ Step 5

You scanned the QR code, so the tablet is now connected. Let’s get back to the web app and edit the device’s configuration.

After scanning the QR code with a tablet, hit Continue in the web app.

Now it’s time to edit the device’s configuration. In the ‘Details’ tab, you have the following options:

  • Name: you can assign your device a name (for easier managing and search purposes).
  • Enable booking: allowing bookings to be created from the reception tablet.
  • Enable booking via user selection: As an alternative to authorizing a booking by scanning a QR code, you can authorize it directly by searching for the booking in your account.
  • Location: the location this reception device is linked to.
  • Notify contact: after checking-in as a guest, visitors can search for the person you are meeting with, and they will be notified.
  • Default language.
  • Automatically revert to the default language after [number of minutes].
  • Supported languages: choose which of the available languages should show up as options for your visitors.
