Hi- novice user, beware! I would like to make an attendance app for our social enterprise. Looks simple of the website. However as many of our attendees have a variety of disabilities, some of which are physical, I would like them to be able to log in using a QR code which they’d scan in using the phone’s camera. Is this possible using the basic glide template? Thanks ---

As far as I know glide don’t support barcode scanning at the moment. I’ve asked them as I need this ability as well within the app. If you do figure out a way to do this I’d love to know ---

Found a free app that already does it. Job done. Thanks ---

There were a couple I found, both offering slightly different functionality; QR attendance Control and SAM - Scan Attendance Manager. The latter doesn’t offer CSV export but the former does. ---

So you scan the QR? How to get it to open the app instead of the pin? ---

It doesn’t open the app. You have the app open, then request a scan. Scan the QR code which you’ve created using a QRcode generator. The apps are quite self explanatory. If it is for less than 10 people then TimeStation is very good but we needed it for more people. ---

If you read the other replies you would see that I found other freely available apps. Names above. ---

From reading the posts, I think the confusion is over how to invoke the free apps to do the QRcode scan and return results to a Glide field.
