If the same "image" is on the screen for too long it will eventually burn in to the screen an ruin it. therefore a screensaver mode for the operater will help a lot. At the moment it bypasses the screensaver mode set in android.

-credit card scanning
-French identity card scanning
-electronic signature18 votesHello,

Security for key creation
At the moment guests have the possibility to create a new key via the Operator. However, it would be welcomed to add extra security to this process and ask the guest e.g. to confirm his/her identity via passport/ID scanner or to confirm one of the filled out profile details just like it would happen at a manned reception desk prior to creating a new/additional key.
7 votesThank you for the suggestion. The Kiosk now requires a guest to enter their last name and confirmation number if they are re-creating keys for an already checked in reservation.

Enabling Hotjar to record and analyse booker behaviour during the booking process (Distributor).
Link Distributor directly to Hotjar so we can see how guests are engaging within the booking engine. At the moment because Distributor works on iFrames and not via a url link heatmaps and recordings stop when a guest enters the booking process.
14 votesHello, you can add hotjar to GTM, which is avaliable in our booking engine configuration. Mews team -
Quotation should be able to confirm regardless to which email address it has been sent
When you send a quotation to a custom email address, the guest will not be able to see their proper quotation, this is only possible when you send it to their own email. They can not use the blue "confirm" button due to a bug in the system. Please have this fixed, it occurs many times that we have to send the quotation to another address.

Two Factor Authentication
When creating employees it would be useful to have an option to enforce two factor authentication. This could apply by user, so that those in more critical positions have to use 2FA (managers) where we could leave it off for housekeeping, etc

Prevent that specific guests with unbalanced bills are not able to check in at Operator kiosks
For example the guest has an open bill from a previous stay and could not be charged via merchant, so we want to make sure that this specific guest won't be able to do the check in via Operator and will be forced to check in at the reception.
7 votesHello from the Mews product team. We would like to let you know that it is not possible for a guest to check-in through Kiosk if they have an unbalanced bill from a prior stay. If you are experiencing this at your property then please reach out to support to help us resolve the issue. -
Custom agreement with property rules
Our property deals with people who smoke inside the hotel rooms. It doesn't matter that they don't smell cigarettes inside of the room, nor that there is no ashtray.
We used to require agreement with non-smoking policy on registration cards, however when the guest does check-in via Operator, it is not possible.
We wish to have a special screen, where the guest has to agree that there is a penalty in case of smoking inside of the room.
17 votesHello from the Mews product team. We are pleased to confirm that this change was previously released as part of the 'house rules' capability in the Kiosk.

Display last reservation in search bar from checked-out room today
When room has checked out, you cannot find the reservation back in search bar by searching for room number. You should go into the timeline now. It would be great if you can access this last reservation that has checked out today from that specific room in the search bar directly.

Arrival and departure date to download onto online booking form
If the arrival and departure details can be downloaded onto the online form then this would suffice for an official registration form and would eliminate the need to print a registration form on guest checkin.
2 votesHi Mewsers!
Check-in can now be completely papereless. Guests can now sign digital registration cards in Navigator before arriving!Now, when guests check in online, they’ll provide all of their legally required info and their signature to create a digital registration card. Arrival and deprature date are the part of the registration card.
We’ll store the signed card on the customer profile in Mews in Files section. https://help.mews.com/hc/en-us/articles/360010283757

Registration card to be printed in French and in English
Registration card must be printed both in French and English.
8 votesHello from the Mews product team.
We are very happy to inform you that we currently support the ability to print registration cards in multiple languages, including French.
Each registration card is printed based on the guests nationality as set up in Mews. For example if the guests Nationality is French, registration cards printed for that guests will be in French. The same process can be applied for gusts of multiple nationalities.
Thank you again for sharing your idea!

Display only first name or first name & initial in guest messages
Currently when messaging a guest through the Mews Messages platform the full name (or whatever name is set in the employee's profile) is displayed to the guest. This is very uncommon and I don't know a single platform that provides the first and last name of a customer support employee. In addition we should be able to give our staff protection from any harassment they could receive as a result of this. As a temporary fix you can remove your last name from your employee profile but this isn't ideal.
12 votesHello Mewsers!
Good news! Because privacy of your employees is very important for us, from now, your guests will be able to see only the first name of employee who is replying in the chat.With the first name, communication still remains personal but does not expose any sensitive information about your employees.
Have a great day and thanks for feedback you provided,

Option to edit or disable mandatory OCI/GDPR mail
We are having a lot of discomfort with the tone of voice and content of the email that gets send out automatically after booking, and thus being the first email that guests receive after they make a booking. The mail starts with "At <PropertyName>, we are dedicated to your leisure..."
This email cannot be disabled, nor can it be edited to OUR tone of voice. As our property isn't actively using online check-ins, this is for our guests a pointless email. (except for the GDPR notification) After this mail, we are still forced to send a confirmation mail, upselling mail…
28 votesHello from Mews product team!
Good news! You can now request disabling of the “Customer added” email (also known as “Account created”) through our Support.
Based on several feedback sessions with many of you this solution is looking to be the best one (comparing to e.g. email customization).
Thanks for all your inputs.

Automatically block favorite room to a guest
Our regular guests want the same room every reservation, right now we need to assign and block this space to them manually. My idea is to have select box to select the favorite room number of a guests in their 'profile' internals. By this MEWS can automatically block the favorite room of the guest when the reservation is made.
124 votesHello Mewsers!
We are very happy to inform you that your request to automatically assign guests to their favourite room is ready and available for your use.
Head over to a customers profile and, select the “internals” tab then click on “Preferred space features” to mark the preferences for your loyal guests.
Tip: Make sure that you have space features setup to ensure that the guests are automatically assigned to the correct room.
You can find more information about this feature by following the link below:
