When this feature is turn on, you will see a SCAN button on the punch clock app.
Employees who have faces registered will NOT need to enter their code and password and can scan instead. This allows you to have a mix of both facial recognition and code/password.

To enroll employees, enter the settings (clicking the (i) icon on the home page) and go to the EMPLOYEE section

Click ADD FACE and take a picture. The system will try and detect a face.

You can enroll multiple faces and we recommend a minimum of 2.

You can test the system to confirm the faces will work by clicking the TEST FACE button.

Take a picture and if your face matches, you will see this message:

If the picture does NOT match, you will have to try again or add more faces.

Do this for each employee.
