QR Code Logins

Overview - QR Code Logins

Are you sure you want to remove this component?

QR Code Logins can be provided to student users to make it easier for them to login to Schoolbox. When a student is provided with a QR Code, they will be able to use a device's camera to bypass signing in, meaning they will not need to know their username and password.

QR Codes can be utilised to provide the student access to their dashboard, profile, or a homepage.
