Kiosk Mode

Kiosk mode provides a full-screen, tablet-friendly interface for self-service child check-in and checkout. Set up a tablet at your entrance and let parents handle the process themselves.

Setting Up a Kiosk

1. Open FaithAdmin on a tablet or dedicated computer.
2. Navigate to Check-In > Kiosk Mode.
3. The interface switches to a simplified, full-screen layout optimized for touch.

Step-by-Step Check-In Flow

The kiosk walks parents through a simple process:

1. Search -- Parent types their family name or searches for their child
2. Select Children -- Choose which children to check in (families with multiple children can check in all at once)
3. Select Room -- Pick the room or class for each child
4. Confirm -- Review the selections and confirm
5. Security Code Display -- The kiosk displays the security code prominently on screen
6. Print Label (optional) -- If a label printer is connected, a name tag with the security code prints automatically

Checkout via Kiosk

1. Parent selects Checkout on the kiosk.
2. Enters their security code.
3. The system verifies the code and marks the child as checked out.

Kiosk Interface Features

• Large buttons and text -- Easy to read and tap on a tablet
• Full-screen mode -- No browser chrome or navigation distractions
• Auto-reset -- Returns to the start screen after inactivity
• Touch-optimized -- Designed for touchscreen interaction

Hardware Recommendations

• A 10-inch tablet (iPad or Android) works well for most setups
• Optional: a label printer for name tags (Dymo or Brother compatible)
• Position the tablet on a stand near your entrance

Security Considerations

• The kiosk only provides check-in and checkout functionality
• No admin access or sensitive data is exposed through the kiosk interface
• Parents can only see and check in their own children

提示

Test the kiosk flow with a few families before your first Sunday to work out any issues with the hardware setup and label printing.
