Customize your Android Mobile Booking App experience to further streamline your use and create a more personalized experience.
Configuring app settings
A couple of configurable settings are available through the Android Mobile Booking App. These can be accessed via the settings button in the bottom-right corner of the app's home screen.
Auto Check-in
Auto check-in is a feature that automatically checks Customers in when the app scans the QR code on their booking invoice.
This further speeds up the process of checking Customers in, especially if you are using Checkfront for tours and have many people arriving at the same time to redeem their reservations.
Point the device camera at the QR code, and that's it. The booking appears on the screen, and the check-in switch is active.
Use Legacy Add Booking Form
In a previous version of the Checkfront Mobile App, the booking form was displayed through an iframe to the hosted booking form online (above right). Now, the booking form is built into the app by default.
If you prefer the old method, though, you can activate this switch.
