How to use GPS Self Check-In via the Nowsta App

Modified on Wed, 13 Aug at 4:38 PM

If your workplace allows mobile clock in, you can clock in and out from the Nowsta app on your phone.

Things to be aware of before you begin

If you don’t see the option to clock in, your employer may have turned off GPS self check-in.
Your employer can require that you clock in within a certain time range of your shift start. If you’re too early, you may be unable to clock in.
Your employer can also require that you clock in from a specific location. If you’re at the wrong location, you may be unable to clock in.

Step by Step Instructions

The easiest way to check-in for a shift is to find it on the Home tab of your Nowsta app. Simply swipe until you see the shift, then hit clock-in.

If you are not scheduled for a shift then you will be clocking into a position instead of a shift.

Another way to clock in is through the Job Board tab—just find your shift, tap the event, and hit “Clock In” at the bottom.

You can follow the above instructions to start or end a break or clock-out as well.
