Pro Tips

Best practices for getting the most out of AttendanceSheeter

QR Code Best Practices

  • •Generate the QR code ONCE per sheet — it locks editing for data consistency
  • •Test the QR code before your event starts
  • •Share widely — QR codes work from any device with a camera
  • •Save the QR image for easy redistribution

Signature Configuration

  • •Disabled: Coffee meetups, internal meetings, casual events
  • •Optional: Networking events, flexible compliance
  • •Required: Legal training, liability events, certification
  • •Configure before QR generation — can't change after

Privacy & Security

  • •Data automatically expires within 24 hours — no exceptions
  • •Use "Stop Attendance" button for immediate deletion
  • •Export your data before the session expires
  • •All encryption happens client-side for maximum security

Troubleshooting

Quick fixes for common issues

QR Code Not Working?

  • •Check internet connection on both devices
  • •Ensure QR code image is clear and scannable
  • •Try regenerating the QR code
  • •Verify the session hasn't expired (24-hour limit)

Signature Won't Draw?

  • •Try using mouse on desktop, finger on mobile
  • •Clear signature and try again
  • •Check if signatures are enabled for this sheet

Data Missing or Lost?
