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.

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.

Kiosk generic welcome message not suitable for gendered languages
As french grammar is very particular and the actual generic welcome message "bienvenue à/au" does not look appropriate, it would be perfect if the property could write the full welcome message.
20 votesHello from the Mews product team.
We are pleased to let you know that we have made changes to address the feedback shared where the Kiosk welcome message did not appropriately handle masculine and feminine hotel names in some languages.
Thank you again for sharing this feedback!

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,

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. -
Add a field "Document Issued By" in Operator
As the italian police requires the "Document issued by" <Country> it would be great to add this field, as mandatory, in the Operator (Kiosk)

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

User friendly datepickers / mask fields
Many users have experienced trouble with the datepickers available in Mews Navigator and Distributor. Rather than selecting years from a dropdown or typing it in a field, it is currently required that users scroll back to the correct year before they are able to select the correct month and date. Implementation of more user-friendly datepickers could both eliminate confusion and frustration, making date selection much easier.

Magic link for OCI
Magic links are a fast and secure tool for logging in to an account without password authentication. By including a magic link in confirmation emails, customers who create reservations through OTAs such as Booking.com could use that unique link to log in to their Mews Navigator accounts, update their email to correct one, confirm it using a magic link, and then complete online check-in before arrival.
19 votesHi Mewsers!

Hello,
thank all of you for picking up this topic – this feature has been released two weeks ago.
You can find this option in Settings > Stay > Operator configurations and “Options” section.
If you remove “Balance check enabled” tag, save and reboot tablet, all guests will be able to do checkin even with unpaid booking. And it doesn’t matter if credit card is attached to profile or not.
We are looking forward see your feedback on this and see, how we can improve this next time.

Mews Operator: All LEs
As guest fill in their registration card details using Mews Operator, they sometimes have fields listed that may not be legally required. So in order to simplify this process for as many guests as possible, registration card requirements could be based on each property's legal environment, which eliminates all unnecessary information so that guests can complete check-in and relax.

Install Mews Operator without keycutters
Many properties have chosen not to implement key encoders as part of their operations. However, as Mews Operator was created with the intention of complete self-service, key encoder details were required as part of the configuration. Now, Mews Operator no longer requires this as part of setup, meaning that any property can now implement Operator kiosks, with or without key encoders.
