  1. Go to ConsoleDevices and select Pair a device.

  2. Under What is it?, choose A tablet or phone for the Agoo Kiosk app, or A computer's browser for a kiosk in a web browser.
  3. Choose the Site and the Entrance where the device stands.
  4. Choose the Mode: Kiosk mode for visitors to use themselves, Guard mode for staff at a gate, or Clock-in only for staff.
  5. Give it a Name your team will recognise in alerts and reports, such as "Lobby iPad".
  6. Select Create code. The Console shows a pairing code and a QR code.
  7. On the device, tap Scan the pairing code in Agoo Kiosk, or type the code. In a browser, open the kiosk address the Console shows and type the code.

The device shows as Paired in Devices as soon as it connects. Set its device PIN next.

Good to Know

  • Each paired device, including a kiosk in a browser, takes one of your plan's kiosks and devices. A device waiting to pair already holds its place.
  • A code works once, for ten minutes. If it runs out, select New code.
  • A code made for the app only pairs the app, and a code made for a browser only pairs a browser.
  • Guard mode needs the Agoo Kiosk app, so it isn't offered for a browser.
  • Agoo Workspace on staff phones doesn't count as a device.

If Something Goes Wrong

  • "Every place is in use". Unpair a device you no longer use, or add more in ConsoleSettingsBilling.
  • The code isn't accepted. Check it's the newest code, made for the right kind of device, and still within its ten minutes.
  • You changed your mind before pairing. Open the device in Devices and select Cancel device to free its place.
