Setting up the separate sign-in screen
Start by setting up the separate sign-in screen, as normal:
Enabling the use of a pin-code on the separate sign-in screen
💡 This is NOT the same pin code you use to log in to the Famly app that you can edit in your account settings. This pin code is unique to you, and cannot be changed
To enable parents and staff to sign themselves and their children in and out with a pin code, this must first be enabled in the app. To do this:
Log in to the app
Click on Settings in your sidebar
Select the Sign in/out section
Click the toggle to enable Pin code required for sign in
Click OK in the pop-up to confirm
Doing this will automatically assign each person that has been given a login in for your setting (staff and parents) a pin code they can use to sign a child in and out, on the separate sign-in screen.
Once you have enabled pin-code option, use the following URL to open up your sign-in screen: https://signin.famly.co/
Where do I find the pin code to sign in and out of the setting on the separate sign-in screen?
Each person that has been given a login in for your setting (staff and parents) will now have a pin code they can use to sign a child in and out of the setting.
To find this:
Log in to the Famly app
Clicking on your picture in the top right corner to view your profile
Click Sign-in pin code.
A pop-up will open, showing your code. This pin code is unique to you
How do I sign in with my PIN code
Once you've found and remembered your PIN code, you're ready to sign in to your separate Sign-in screen with it. To do that:
Open up your separate Sign-in screen either on a tablet or in your browser window
If you haven't already, log in using the Sign-in password in your Settings
You'll see a number pad appear - this is where you'll want to enter your PIN code
Once you've entered your PIN, you can select the room you'd like to sign into and your expected leaving time (this option can be toggled off in your Sign-in/out settings)
Tap on Sign in to confirm
And that's it! You're all signed in. To sign out, just follow the same steps and click on Sign out.
Allow a child to go home with another child
With the pin code sign-in screen enabled, parents can choose for their child to go home with another child. This is a setting you can toggle on or off by going to Settings → Sign-in/out → Allow other parents to pick up
For parents using the sign in screen, it'll look something like this if you've chosen to enable this feature:
For a parent to select a child for their child to go home with:
They need to enter their pin code to log in to the sign-in screen
Click on Going home with
Select the room the the other child is assigned to
Choose the child their child is going home with from the list
Click Sign in
When the parent comes to collect both children, they will be able to sign both of them out.
The child they select will be displayed under their name in the room overview for you to see:
