# How to enable and use client check-ins

## Overview

Want to see who’s checking into your gym or studio in real-time? You can turn on **client check-in pop-ups** and the **check-in widget** so every time a member checks in, a notification appears on your screen. It’s a simple way to keep track of member activity at your front desk or staff computer.

### Step 2: Enable check-in features

1. Scroll down to find the following two settings: 
     - **Enable check-in pop-ups**
     - **Enable check-in widget**
2. Turn both settings **ON** by selecting **Yes** from the dropdown menu
3. Scroll back up and click **Save** at the top right corner

> Tip: Once enabled, you’ll start seeing check-in alerts as members scan in or are manually checked in.

---

### Step 3: Use the check-in widget

1. After saving, a **barcode icon** will appear on your screen (usually in the corner)
2. You can **move this icon** to wherever works best on your screen
3. When a client checks in, a **pop-up will appear** with their name (e.g., “Stephen has checked into the gym”)

> Tip: Click on the barcode icon to view a full list of all recent check-ins.

---

### Step 4: Manually search for a client

1. Click on the barcode icon
2. Use the search field to look up a client by: 
     - **First name**
     - **Last name**
     - **Email**
     - **Phone number**
3. The system will display their check-in info once found

## Expected outcome

You’ll be able to see real-time check-ins for every client as they arrive, either automatically or by manually searching them in the widget. This helps monitor attendance and front-desk activity more efficiently.

## FAQs

**Q: Can I use this on multiple staff computers?**

A: Yes — as long as the setting is enabled and you're logged into the correct account, the pop-ups and widget will display.

**Q: Will this show check-ins from other locations?**

A: No — it only displays check-ins at the location you're currently logged into.

**Q: What happens if I disable the setting later?**

A: The pop-up notifications and widget will disappear until the setting is turned back on.
