  1. Like when our guests check-in online, it should be possible for our guests to change their e-mail doing check in at the Kiosk. We have a lot of guests who make their reservations through booking.com and then they don't get the chance to write their own e-mail address, because we already have the autogenerated one on their profile.

  2. The calendar in the kiosk for the expiration date, birthdate, etc. is very illogical. It would be better if guests are able to write the date themselves, or make it a 3-part process (think apple) with the year date, and month separate.
    The process to click the year first (tiny module top right) and then find the month and then the date is very confusing and unintuitive.

    Hello from the Mews product team. We are so pleased to let you know that your feature request has been released. Users are now able to type dates into relevant fields on the Kiosk. Thank you again for sharing your idea!

  3. For Hotels/Hostels without reception it is necessary that the guest can check out at the kiosk - and pay the bill right there. The kiosk has an integrated Mews terminal, so the look and feel is exactly as it is at the online check out - just with the payment at the kiosk.

    Hello from the Mews product team. We are so pleased to let you know that your feature request has been released. When completing their check-out, guests with outstanding balances can now pay their bills directly via a Mews terminal connected to the Kiosk. Thank you again for sharing your idea!

  4. I think it would be ideal (and something seen in many other kiosks) that a in-house guest could recut his/her key in the kiosk if they have lost it. This would mean that the kiosk have three function 1. Check in 2. Check out 3. recut keys if lost. Thanks

  5. Hi - Self Check in has a maximum amount of times that it is possible to use ?! As it seems. Quote 100 has been reached for a regular guest of ours and he can not use the service anymore. The service self check in not usable anymore for that particular guest staying as often as he does. Is this correct ?

  6. 99% of guests in the US and Canada do not travel with their passport. Therefore Mews ID scanner doesn't work in this region. Properties are looking for ways to automate their check-in and checking ID/Driver's License is absolutely crucial.

    Scanning IDs and DLs is a needed feature in North America.

    Properties should also be able to make this a mandatory step if a guest wants to check in on a kiosk.

  7. As it seems, the QR code is only readable from Ipones (IOS) and not readable on Androids at the moment. Since Android still has a huge marketshare, this would be a big improvement for guests and hosts.

    Hello from the Mews product team.

    We have marked this request as ‘released’ as the Mews Kiosk can read QR codes from Android devices.

    Thank you again for sharing your feedback with us!

  8. The software in Mews that reads ID data works much better than the one that does the same work in the kiosk app. In the kiosk app you have to enter some of the data manually, which is not necessary when scanning ID in Mews. The only problem with scanning the ID in Mews is that the system cannot find the camera it needs right away.

  9. Adding date of birth by a guest is not very intuitive at the moment. Almost every guest is taking quite some time to figure it out. So request to make this filling in more logical and intuitive.

  10. When checking in via Operator email for Children should be allowed to be skipped.

    Hello from the Mews product team and thank you for your suggestion! We can confirm that email is an optional field in Kiosk (formerly Operator) as well as during the Online Check-in. So guests are able to skip entering the email for any children in their group.

  11. Merged with several similar requests:
    - Different keyboard layouts (e.g. QWERTY, AZERTY, QWERTZU)
    - Keyboard to support characters with accents
    - Keyboard to support Japanese, Chinese and Korean


    The keyboard layout is built in in the Mews Kiosk app.
    Only Qwerty is used in the app. Allthough 85% of our customers are using Azerty.
    I already contacted support for this problem and they confirmed that the only keyboard layout available is Qwerty.

    It should depend which language the customer choose, that changes the keyboard layout.

This means different keyboard formats and special characters are supported as part of your system keyboard capability. Thank you again for sharing your idea!

  13. When I enter my last name and confirmation number and the room to which I am assigned is not ready, I get the error message that I should come back later. Better solution would be if the tablet can automatically reassign the guest into different room of the same space category, which is ready to be used.

  14. Customers already receive confirmation and online c-in emails.
    There is a ID scanner in place, however it takes time for guests to put their name and booking ref number.
    It will be very helpful if a guest can just present a QR code for their booking and the kiosk finds their booking and starts the c-in process.
    This will also limit the errors when mistyping name/booking number and limit the customer "touch" interaction with the device for the current Covid environment.

  15. The idea is to improve the check-in via commander to be able to use it on a tablet and add these 3 functions :
    -credit card scanning
    -French identity card scanning
    -electronic signature

  16. 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.

  17. Integrate with fysical payment terminal. We do not always have credit card information from clients booking trough a OTA. At arrival they have to pay citytax and it's not possible trough the operator right now.
    With a payment terminal integration 100% of our guest can make use of the self check-in

  18. 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.
