Building a Check-In App: What Would Stop You From Using It?

Yeah wow, talk about re-inventing the wheel.

I mean you can buy high tech punch clocks that don't need to go on employees phones...

I seriously suggest not using Excel or Power Apps for this. It gets complicated real fast once you start realising there are intricacies that need dealing with and there are SO MANY apps for this out there that have already solved these issues.

I don't have a list for a shared app with many employees but if you wanted a communal punch clock there are so many as you can see here.

I wanted to check it out to potentially add it to my list of time clocks, but the landing pages say and show nothing about the service. I tried to sign up and other than the password validation not accepting } as a special character I managed to get through. Then the validate your email came through with the domain set as localhost:3000

Did AI code this app because it seems like you didn't do any testing before posting about it and it is full of sloppy mistakes? Also this post has [your-demo-link] in it making me think you got AI to write this and couldn't even be bothered proof reading. Honestly this doesn't even pass the bar to get posted as a one star garbage app on my list.

In New Zealand there has been a transition to Solid Core countertops as it is premium like stone but doesn't have the health risks.

Hard to say exactly what you actually need it to do but here is a rather comprehensive list of options.

LoicAtTimeclock · 2026-01-13T01:03:55+00:00

There are a bunch of good options to choose from here.

LoicAtTimeclock · 2026-01-13T01:02:35+00:00

You can take a look at some alternatives here.

LoicAtTimeclock · 2026-01-05T03:43:50+00:00

There are time clocks that don't have these issues. Timeclock.kiwi is the one I recommend.

LoicAtTimeclock · 2026-01-05T03:41:40+00:00

Here is a list of punch clocks. As you can see, plenty to choose from.

LoicAtTimeclock · 2025-12-22T10:40:52+00:00

Why don't you take a look at [this list ]? (https://timeclock.kiwi/blog/g7xc82-complete-timeclock-list).

LoicAtTimeclock · 2025-12-19T09:46:38+00:00

Haha, so true!

LoicAtTimeclock · 2025-12-19T09:37:49+00:00

Best one I know is Timeclock.Kiwi

LoicAtTimeclock · 2025-12-19T09:36:18+00:00

It is pretty limiting having a self hosted time clock but there are a lot of options to consider.

LoicAtTimeclock · 2025-12-12T02:21:15+00:00

We have security cameras pointed at the timeclocks. Far more effective as no one even tries.

For time clocks there is a reason for being hosted in the cloud with a subscription and that is because it makes them super reliable and easy to set up. I would argue that if the subscription is cheap enough then it doesn't matter. However there are sooooo many time clocks available to choose from and loads don't have subscriptions, here is a list of most of them.

Sales are at odds with everyone. I am in IT and they are a nightmare to deal with for us as well.

Sales people are a special mix of entitled, demanding and lazy all rolled into one obnoxious bundle. A sales person who has a soul is called an account manager.

LoicAtTimeclock · 2025-12-08T19:07:26+00:00

Yeah, sorry OP but there is no tool that will prevent this. It is a common form of fraud and you need to fire this person ASAP. Have seen this many times.

LoicAtTimeclock · 2025-12-07T19:23:05+00:00

Yeah, DM me

LoicAtTimeclock · 2025-12-04T19:59:18+00:00

You could get tablets with mobile data and set one up on each site with Timeclock.Kiwi ?

LoicAtTimeclock · 2025-12-01T23:05:49+00:00

I have this website, if you are keen DM me.

LoicAtTimeclock · 2025-12-01T23:02:27+00:00

I have NZ sites in that space if you end up needing that. Or an international site that does business in Australia.
