Clock In/Out Icons

The Clock In/Out screen in the NoahFace App supports icons on the Clock In, Clock Out, and Start Break buttons. Using icons provides a rich and intuitive user experience, and can reduce both clocking times and error rates in environments where employees use multiple languages and/or have low literacy skills.

Configuration

To enable icons, just specify "icons=true" in the Screen Details of your Access Point Type. You can then select the icons to be used on each button by specifying any or all of the following configuration options:

  • inicon. The icon used on the Clock In button.
  • breakicon. The icon used on the Start Break button.
  • outicon. The icon used on the Clock Out button.
  • resticon. The icon used on the Rest Break button.
  • mealicon. The icon used on the Meal Break button.

The available icons are listed below:

  • play
  • pause
  • stop
  • meal
  • cutlery
  • burger
  • sandwich
  • sushi
  • coffee
  • hardhat
  • pick
  • clean
  • health
  • truck
  • wrench
  • hammer
  • home

NB: The use of Clock In/Out icons requires iOS 15.0 or later.
