PIN Attendance Software for Employees Without Smartphones

Two attendance routes, one workforce record

Choose the attendance method that fits the worker and the environment. Smartphone users can use Attendance Link QR. Workers without smartphones can use Timenox Lite with Employee ID and PIN.

For workers without smartphones

Timenox Lite + Employee ID & PIN

Scan the Timenox Lite QR on a shared or client phone to open the shared attendance terminal, then enter the employee's ID and PIN. This is the PIN attendance workflow; it is separate from the employee QR attendance method. The phone does not have to belong to the employee.

How PIN attendance works

1

Share the Timenox Lite QR

Place or share the QR code where employees need to verify attendance, including a client site or shared attendance point.

2

Open it on a shared phone

The employee or the person operating the shared phone scans the QR and opens the Timenox Lite attendance page.

3

Enter Employee ID and PIN

The worker identifies themselves with the Employee ID and PIN configured for them in Timenox.

4

Verify the attendance event

Timenox can verify the device location at the attendance event and capture a check-in or check-out photo when enabled by policy.

Built for real-world shared-phone workflows

Housekeeping and cleaning teams

Useful when workers arrive at a hotel, office, apartment, or client site without carrying a smartphone for attendance.

Technicians and maintenance teams

A shared phone can provide an attendance point when the worker is moving between customer locations.

Plumbers and service workers

Confirm arrival and departure at a customer location without requiring every worker to own a smartphone.

Contractors and client-site teams

Use a client or shared phone as the attendance terminal while keeping the attendance record in your Timenox workspace.

Location verification happens at attendance

PIN attendance is not continuous location tracking. Location can be checked as part of the attendance event, so the record can show where the worker marked check-in or check-out. Timenox does not need to follow the worker between attendance events.

Employee ID + PIN

Simple identity input for shared-phone attendance.

GPS verification

Add location context to the attendance event.

Optional photo

Enable photo capture when your attendance policy requires it.

Need smartphone-based QR attendance instead?

Use Attendance Link QR when employees have smartphones. Use Timenox Lite when a shared or client phone is the better fit. Both routes feed into the same workforce attendance system.
