Make it clear that guests can re-cut keys from Kiosk
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

Disable check out button
We are a hotel without a reception in house. Because we don't have any upselling during guest stays, we don't need any manual check out button at our kiosk. People are confused about check out button. Our guest only need to leave the apartment at a certain time and put the room card into a transparent box at the exit. It is written in our brochures and in the check out information which we give our guest with our confirmation mail. Therefore it confuses the people. Would be great if the check out button or online check out can be…

self check in
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 ?

Enable Kiosk to scan IDs + Driver's Licenses in US + Canada
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.

Kiosk App Update Timing
Update Timing Kiosk App: it would be very helpful to have a way of being able to determine the period in which the kiosk app receives its update? Since we have been using the app, it has repeatedly happened that the app receives an update just when guests have arrived and are waiting to be checked in. The update takes time which the guests do not have. So maybe it would be an idea to design it so that we as users of the app can decide when to download the current update - after we have received a message…

Make QR code of ANDROID phones also readable the Mews Kiosk
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.

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

ID Scanning in Mews + Kiosk-App
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.

Dramatically reduce check-in duration by asking only reservation owner data
In short: we just need to register one person´s data.
We try to speed up our self-check-in by encouraging online check-in in advance, however most of our guests do not check in online.
Now, when they come to the hotel and check in through Operator Kiosk, it takes a long time to check-in (for example they struggle to find ö,ä,ü for their names). That time is then multiplied for each person staying, which is not necessary.
We can cut self-check-in time in half by just not asking the companions´data, like we always do at the reception.
This could be implemented…12 votesHello from the Mews product team. Thank you for your suggestion, we have updated your request and set it as one to be upvoted by the Mews Community. Remember you can share a link to your request so that your colleagues can also upvote your suggestion. -
Date of birth filling by guest more intuitive and thus faster
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.

Add guests to checked in reservations via Operator
It would make it easier to keep the checked in reservations at the bottom of the operator screen and allow us to select them and add a guest who checks in later than the rest so that they can complete the check in too. Now there is no option to collect their information without undoing the check in, and that is not viable as we then could loose previous guests' info and signatures.

children email to be skipped
When checking in via Operator email for Children should be allowed to be skipped.
70 votesHello 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.

More Seamless integration between Operator and Commander
When checking in guests "manually" it would be nice be be able to "force" a registration card to show up in the operator. Imagine walking to a check in desk, saying your name, and the receptionist makes your registration card appear on a tablet in front of you for you to fill in.
It would connect the "kiosk" option from hostels, with the personal service of hotels.7 votesHello from the Mews product team.

Add more keyboard options for Kiosk
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.

Adding an email-placeholder for room number
Currently, with a self check-in through Operator, the only time the guest is informed about his/her room number is at the final step of the check in.
We would like to set up an "After check-in" which the guest can look at if he/she doens´t remember the room number and no reception is there. In order to do so, we would need a placeholder for the room number! Would be great, thanks!7 votesHello from the Mews product team.
