Update the Check-in Screen on Browser

If you use the Check-in screen on a browser on your tablet, just open it up as you usually would by:

  • Going to pin.famly.co in your browser

  • Then refresh your browser window

  • You'll be automatically redirected to signin.famly.co where you'll see the new Check-in screen

You're all set! The updated Check-in screen is ready for you to use


๐Ÿ’กIf you have saved the Check-in screen as an app onto your tablet's homescreen, you won't be able to refresh the app, so you'll need to go through a couple of extra steps

If you tap Famly SignIn on your homescreen, the Check-in screen will open up, and you can enter the password from your Check-in settings in-app.
