Why employers choose clock-ins without app installs.
An app-free workflow keeps rollout simple. Employees do not have to download software before they can clock in, and employers can still choose the clock-in method that fits each workplace.
Browser, kiosk, and phone clock-ins without a native app install.
Works for shared workplaces
A kiosk gives employees a shared screen when you do not want personal phones used for clock-ins.
Works without smartphones
Phone clocking lets employees dial in from a landline or cell phone when a browser is not practical.
Less device management
There is no native app rollout to manage before employees can start tracking time.

Shared and phone options
No app does not mean one device policy.
Some workplaces want employees on their own accounts. Others want a shared kiosk or a phone dial-in path.

Common questions
Questions about time tracking without an app.
- Browser clock-in
- Shared kiosk
- Phone dial-in
Does no app mean no internet?
Browser and kiosk clock-ins need internet. If an employee has no reliable internet at the job site, phone clocking lets them dial in from a landline or cell phone.
Do employees need smartphones?
No. Employees can use a browser on a computer, a shared kiosk, or phone clocking from a landline or cell phone.
Is there anything to install for a kiosk?
No native app. Open the kiosk address in a browser on the shared tablet or computer, register it once, and employees clock in with PINs.
How do new employees start?
Invite them by email for browser access, send or set up kiosk PINs for shared devices, or set up a phone clock ID and PIN for phone clocking.
