Buddy punching and guesswork cost payroll teams hours every week. HammerTime uses biometric check-in — Face ID or fingerprint on the worker's own device — so the person clocking on is the person who was actually on site.
What biometrics are for
Biometrics apply to check-in and clock events, not background tracking. When a worker checks in or punches time, the app can require Face ID or fingerprint before the record is saved. That ties the session to the right person without shared PINs or pass-the-phone clocking.
What GPS adds
When your site policy requires it, location is captured at clock and compliance moments — not as continuous surveillance. A geofence check at punch time helps show the worker was on site when they said they were, giving supervisors and payroll teams a clearer picture without tracking people all day.
Auto check-in is different
Geofence-based auto check-in is a separate feature. It always asks the worker to confirm every time before a check-in is recorded. Biometrics are not used to silently auto check someone in without their action.
What changes for crews
- Check in or clock on with a tap, then confirm with Face ID or fingerprint when policy requires it
- Location verified at punch time against the job site boundary when geofence is enabled
- Payroll-ready time records export without chasing texts and paper
HammerTime is built for tradies who need something that works in gloves, sun, and patchy signal — with records that stand up when someone asks who was really on site.
