### 2/5 — Only works sometimes

*2026-03-26*

I use this for work and half the time it will sign me in but does not sign me out. I have the app set to wide open. Full location services. Always on and full notifications. Not sure what else to do to make the dang thing work

### 2/5 — Contact less sign in

*2025-11-10*

Like the idea I can walk into work without having to wait to sign in. This is only effective if the app picks up i’m at work. I go all day not realising the app has not signed me in. 
My app is up to date and work have investigated. We do not know why it doesn’t always work. Doesn’t work more than it works. Don’t rely on contact less sign in

### 3/5 — Requires improvement

*2025-05-16*

App works. Location based features (auto signing) is poor and rarely works. Widget/shortcut functionality would also be extremely useful to sign in/out from the home screen.

### 2/5 — Could be great…. but

*2025-05-07*

If they simply got the app to work with the geofencing they have, it would be amazing. But the amount of times where it shows i’m within my workplaces geofence and still DOESNT sign me in is infuriating. At the moment it’s just another thing I have to fix/ do manually. 

PLEASE FIX THIS, everyone at my workplace hates that this feature doesn’t work properly.

### 3/5 — Sign out…

*2025-04-01*

Would be good if you were able to sign out from the app… for those of us who forget when in the office! Lol

### 2/5 — Auto sign in and out doesn’t work

*2025-03-23*

The app itself is ok however the auto sign in and out function does not work properly and is unreliable at best.  I’m using an iPhone 15 Pro Max.

### 2/5 — HAS POTENTIAL…

*2023-04-21*

Could be a good app, but the version I have, while having a reminder service, only seems to allow silent notifications, which results in me mostly missing to log out. An audible notification would be really useful given I’m not one of those people constantly glued to their phones.

### 2/5 — No sign in option

*2022-08-25*

There is no sign in option for the app. It asks for a code.. what I’d you already have an account?

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you for the review. You should have received an email invite with an authorisation code sent by your Sign In App administrator within the organisation. You only need to connect once, so as soon as you've been invited please enter the code on the email and you should be good to go. Thanks.

### 3/5 — Auto sign in/out

*2022-06-10, version 2.3.4*

App is perfect other than the inconsistent auto sign in/out problem. Is there a fix coming for this?

### 1/5 — Works sometimes

*2022-01-11, version 2.3.2*

I use the auto sign in but it depends on what the app feels like as to whether it works - been in touch with support who have completely ignored 4 emails from me - not deleted only because my company uses this useless app

### 3/5 — Mostly useful but some bugs

*2021-08-03*

Handy for capacity monitoring during pandemic but I find it auto-signs me out when I work nights and it hits midnight. Would love to see this bug resolved so I can stay safe at my job!

**Developer response:** Hi Hanne, thanks for the review! The automated signing out at midnight is an option you can change in the online portal. You can set a group to automatically sign out at a specific time, after a certain number of hours or not at all. If you go to Manage > Group > Sign out options on the online portal, you will be able to change this setting. Please contact support@signinapp.com if you have any questions.

### 1/5 — What’s the point

*2025-11-11, version 3.17.0*

It doesn’t work. And this is supposed to be a safety app? What a joke

### 1/5 — Useless app

*2025-09-19*

Waste of time this app nothing works . Auto sign in and out doesn’t work the calendar doesn’t record your sign in and out times .  To be honest this app is so pointless

### 1/5 — Auto sign in

*2025-04-30, version 3.12.2*

Auto sign in doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Unreliable

*2024-04-07*

Over the past 12 months we’ve found the records to be unreliable, with people missing after logging in and others appearing when simply travelling past on adjacent road. The unreliability makes it useless for fire safety and reporting on attendance.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2024-02-06, version 3.1.8*

Since updating app don’t seem to work as no location found even though on site

### 1/5 — Poor

*2024-01-10, version 3.1.5*

Less than 8 hours after installation the app has failed. It says it needs to be restarted after experiencing an unexpected error, but it fails to tell you how to restart it. Not a great first impression.

### 1/5 — .

*2023-09-04, version 2.3.8*

.

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2023-04-25, version 2.3.7*

Every morning I have to sign in for work and every morning I have to open and close this app several times before the sign up button appears.
The automatic sign in doesn’t work either.

### 1/5 — Utterly rubbish

*2023-01-17*

This app is totally useless with auto sign in/out. Also lacks an intuitive UI and lots of convenience  features like bulk booking, ahead sign in, a combo of the two. This app should focus in shortening user journeys to the point that user should not open the app at all if a user comes everyday to the office.

**Developer response:** Sorry to hear you've been having issues with auto sign in. This is a beta feature that relies on Apple's own geofence technology built into iOS. That being said, there are ways to improve its accuracy and reliability. Low battery mode should be set to off, WiFi on, an internet connection and a geofence at least 150 meters in radius. Support can help troubleshoot if you get in touch.

### 1/5 — Auto sign in

*2022-10-02*

Auto sign in feature as a fire evacuation tool is pointless - having left site multiple times this week it has signed me in once and out once all week.  Several times leaving site could have allowed evacuation personnel to continue to believe I was in the building.   Great in theory - poor in delivery.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the review. The auto sign in feature is in beta testing, so please always check your sign in/out status as recommended when you enabled the beta feature. That being said, there are ways to improve its accuracy and reliability. We use Apple's geofence technology, and this requires low battery mode to be off, WiFi on, an internet connection and a geofence at least 150 meters in radius. If you reach out to support@signinapp.com the team will be able to help you. Thanks

### 5/5 — Great System

*2026-07-02*

SignIn App has genuinely made our reception feel like it’s running itself (in a good way, not a Skynet way). The system works brilliantly, and the companion app is a great addition too, it’s the cherry on top of an already solid setup. Very happy with the whole thing

### 5/5 — New User

*2021-11-11*

We are in our first week of having signin app and everyone (even the technophobes) love it. We’ve set up Spaces, evacuation and 3 levels of log ins (staff, people we support &vistors) with ease. The UI is easy to use. I can’t fault it.

**Developer response:** Hi, thanks for the review. We really appreciate it. I'll pass your feedback on to the team!

### 5/5 — Works great, plus a suggestion

*2021-03-26*

My work just started using Sign In App and it’s way better than signing in on paper!

This app would be ideal on an Apple Watch!  I hope you’re working on that!!

### 5/5 — Running on a $150m Superyacht

*2020-05-29*

The sheer amount of useful functions combined with continuous development makes this an impressive app! Numerous feature requests we’ve made have already been rolled out! The Data Privacy, Evacuation list and Document/Message signing are stand-out features. Fantastic support team and great value for money :)

### 4/5 — Great App… but one improvement…

*2026-03-27*

This a great app for signing in and out - but I would be good to be able to use biometrics (ie TouchID or FaceID) when an organisation requires a pin - but overall great app 😊

### 4/5 — Good app but could you please…..

*2024-03-11*

We use the app to book our hot desks which quickly get booked up.  Could you please enhance the app to notify us when desks become free please ie when a desk booking is cancelled it sends a message there is one desk available on the date you wanted.  Better still if it also held a waiting list to notify people in  of waiting - thanks

### 4/5 — Great app with potential

*2023-09-27*

This is a great app for signing in & out of places conveniently and contact free. But I wonder, do you have any plans of bringing this app to Apple Watch? I feel like it would make it even more convenient to easily sign in & out of a place at the tap of a button on your wrist. Hope this suggestion comes to fruition😁😁

### 4/5 — Sign in

*2023-03-09*

Can’t sign In didn’t receive a code

### 4/5 — Great app but geo-fencing doesn’t work properly

*2022-02-02*

Geo-fencing used to work whether you were using the app or not and was a useful feature but now it doesn’t work unless you restart the app, regardless of your iOS settings for allowing to use always.

### 4/5 — Almost there

*2021-02-24, version 2.1.0*

Great app but needs a way to display QR codes on Apple Watch.
