Before you begin
What you will need to download and set up the brand new Deputy Kiosk Time clock :
- iPad or iPhone running iOS 16.0 or later (we do recommend running the latest iOS version)
- Modern Android phone or Tablet
- Consistent access to the internet and power for the devices
- It is recommended to change the iPad's settings so that the screen doesn't automatically lock or go to sleep. On the iPad go to Settings > Display and Brightness > Autolock > Never.
- A well-lit location to install the Kiosk (important for clarity of face recognition photos)
- During set up of the Deputy Kiosk Time Clock app you may have to allow permission for the app to access your device camera
- A Deputy user with an access level of System Administrator or a Location Manager to set up the Kiosk. Employees or Supervisors cannot set up a Kiosk. Once the Deputy Kiosk has been set up by a System Administrator or Location Manager it is a one-time action. They do not need to log in daily or regularly. The Kiosk will then be ready for your team members to clock in 24 hours, 7 days a week
