Overview
The HT Sign-In App functions as an electronic sign-in book for the HammerTech system, enabling workers and visitors to sign in and out when on-site. There are two types of sign-in devices that can be configured through HammerTech:
-
Full Functionality – Works with the HT Sign-In App, featuring a periodically refreshing QR code.
-
Limited Functionality – Uses a static, printable QR code.
Note: The HammerTech Sign-In App is optimised for use on tablets (Android or iOS). This article covers setting up the HT Sign-In App with full functionality. For details on setting up a static QR code, refer to our Limited Functionality QR Code article.
