Good to know
- On a shared tablet, set up PINs so each team member can switch user without signing out.
- The app needs an internet connection: bookings load live.
- The tablet stays signed in, so keep it behind the bar, not in guests' hands.
- In the tablet's own settings, set the screen to stay awake during service so it is always one tap away.
- On a computer, Chrome offers the same thing: click the install icon at the right of the address bar.
