Facial Recognition
Would it be possible add Facial Recognition software on the mobile app?

If we could scan a person's face and identify the individual on the database like we do with the barcodes on the app we would open a new door to a lot of possibilities.

I have a lot of employees that work off site. Facial recognition would make it easy to do an attendance register with the mobile app.

We have tried using barcodes on an identification card but there is always someone that loses their card or gets it bent and damaged. Printing also has a cost to it. Where facial recognition will be cheaper, quicker and greener with no printing of cards.

Hopefully others see the same possibilities with a mobile facial recognition system.

That's a good idea! I cannot speak for the TeamDesk Backend; but I think it's outside the scope of what TeamDesk can handle, but I can't say for certain.

I haven't done anything like this before. If I did happen to need something like this, I would first look at these two options.

Option 1: MDM Distribution (iOS only)
If you're 100% iOS with an MDM, you might be able to distribute TeamDesk credentials through it. Haven't tested this myself, but worth trying. If you don't have an MDM and want to explore this, let me know - we can try with mine.

Option 2: Password Manager
Use something like LastPass, 1Password, or Bitwarden. I use Bitwarden and know it has shared password lists where you can manage each person's login. Not sure which, if any, of these use facial recognition.

I hope this helps some!
