From Bill R.
Problem Identification:
1. Checking in at home - [ the IC] doesnt know they are available, and an additional input to the system need to be made to indicate such, making the 1st (home) input redundant.
2. Checking in the web interface, while simple, needs a web connection. I've done it with my drooid but it's quite awkward.
Ideas:
1. Focusing on making check in easier, have a mobile interface made for web phones - a bare bones page with log in, check-in, check-out and end of shift time. Many websites have mobile versions of thier pages that are much easier to navigate.
2. Check-in via phone tree.
"Welcome enter your pin number to access your account"
"Press 1 select mission"
"Press 1 to check in, 2 to check out, 3 to enter end of shift time.."
etc
3. Replace our team id with ones that have a magnetic strip that identifies us. Checking in would be as quick as swiping the card through a reader.
