Mobile Biometric Login
A user can log in with Fingerprint Authentication or Facial Recognition (when the capability is available on the mobile device).
For the Biometric Login option to become available, the user must have logged in to the Agency using Email and Password and logged out at least one time.
When the Biometric Login option is available, the fingerprint icon at the right of the Password field is displayed as enabled.
Biometric Login Available
After typing the login Email address, the user taps the fingerprint icon to access the device’s fingerprint authentication or facial recognition biometric page.
Note: If the Agency requires Two Factor Authentication, the user must also provide a Password on the Log In page before tapping the fingerprint icon.
Sample biometric page
After providing a matching fingerprint or facial scan, the user is allowed access to the Caregiver Mobile App.
Note: If the user changes their password or uses the Forgot Password? function, the Biometric Login option is reset. The user must log in to the Agency using Email and Password and log out at least one time before the Biometric Login option becomes available again.
Mobile Biometric Two-Factor Authentication
Mobile App Biometric Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) allows Agencies to add another layer of security to the login process on the Mobile App.
On the Mobile App, Caregivers are prompted to authenticate their login via the biometric measures configured by the Agency. The Biometric options currently supported are facial and fingerprint recognition (if available on the mobile device).
Facial Recognition
When facial recognition is required for authentication, the image below is displayed.
