Hey!

Anyone else that has experienced that (especially) front desk staff are not signing in on their own accounts, and rather just use the account already logged on?
I feel like an automatic sign-out after being inactive for 10-15 minutes might help (if autofill-in can be disabled). This would also be beneficial for security reasons.

How have you approached this?

Hi @Robin Gustavsson

I agree this would be great. There is a feature request here with a number of votes on it already. 

As a workaround, you could install a browser extension which automatically clears the saved cookies thus logging all websites out. You could schedule it hourly or every 2 hours

I see that could be problematic if it ran whilst a user was mid reservation, however not the end of the world to get users to login with their own credentials. 

Regards
Mick
