Auto-lock Web and App

Modified on Thu, 18 Sep at 4:56 PM

MyTime allows businesses to automatically lock their accounts after a period of inactivity, helping to protect sensitive data. You can set separate timeouts for the Scheduler web app and mobile app. If no value is entered for the mobile app, it will use the same auto-lock time set for the web app.


Things to know:

  • Configuring auto-lock settings requires the Accessing Account Settings access control permission.
  • The web and mobile app can have different timeout durations to suit your business needs.
  • If the Auto-lock mobile app after: field is blank, the system defaults to the Auto-lock web app after: value.
  • Once the timeout is reached, the account will lock automatically due to inactivity.
  • Users will need to enter their password to unlock the account and continue working.
  • Auto-lock applies to all logged-in sessions, ensuring both staff and managers are logged out after inactivity.
  • Setting shorter auto-lock durations can help improve security for shared devices or locations.


To enable auto-lock:


1. Go to Business Setup > Settings

2. Under the Staff section, enter the desired inactivity time in:

  • Auto-lock web app after:
  • Auto-lock mobile app after:

3. Click Save


After saving, the system will automatically enforce the timeout. A sign-in modal will appear once the account locks, prompting the user to enter their password to regain access.
