KIOSK doesn't recognise me — what should I do?

If KIOSK shows "Not recognised" and returns to the idle screen, nothing was saved — you can simply try again straight away. Below are the most common causes and what to do about each.



The fingerprint doesn't work


  • The fingerprint was never enrolled. Check in the admin panel whether your account shows "Enrolled". If not, ask your manager to enrol it — see Enrolling a fingerprint.
  • Poor read. Dry your finger and place it flat, using the centre of the fingertip. KIOSK itself hints at what to fix.



The card doesn't work


  • The card is not assigned. Speak to your manager — they will assign it on the terminal, see Assigning contactless cards.
  • The card was deactivated. That happens automatically when a newer card is issued to you. Use the new one.



The reader is disconnected


If a reader has dropped out, KIOSK says so plainly and suggests using a QR code or a PIN. It is a temporary situation — report it to your manager, but clock in with the fallback method so the entry is not lost.



The PIN and QR code always work


A PIN and a QR code need no reader at all. Both live in your profile in the mobile app — the QR code under "Show code", the PIN in your personal details.



Important: If you still could not clock in, do not leave it unreported — your manager can add the entry from the work time records.
