iPad check-in

Pick a station surface

Use the salon station/display URL on a dedicated browser or iPad at the counter—not a shared staff cabinet login on the public desk.

Station / iPad check-in — welcome, consent chip, QR handoff.

Place the device where clients naturally stop. Staff on Google login should see check-ins appear on the day board without asking who just walked in.

Check-in and consent

Handoff tokens support QR/SMS flows into forms and check-in. Ensure consent templates are published before you expect PDFs on the client file.

Digital consent — checklist and signed PDF on the client file.

If Wi-Fi drops, mark checked in from the cabinet; the appointment record is source of truth.

Train the front desk

One ritual: arrive → check in → consent if needed → wait for artist. Avoid inventing a parallel paper list that never updates Inkdesk.
