The Chair App
Receptionist Guide
Keep the diary moving: confirm, seat, and look after clients.
Handle the diary
- Open Appointments. Pick a date to see the day.
- Confirm Pending bookings so customers know they are in.
- Change a booking to Cancelled if the customer cannot come. Use Completed when the visit is done.
Walk-ins and the waitlist
- Open Waitlist and tap Add walk-in. Enter their name, contact, service and barber.
- When a chair is free, tap Seat now. Remove anyone who leaves.
Look after clients
- Open Customers and search by name, email or phone.
- Tap Edit to correct details, or Add to create a client for a phone booking.
Tip: Always take a phone number. It is how the barber reaches the client.
Sign in and keep your password safe
- Go to Sign in. Use the email and password you were given or chose.
- If you were given a temporary password, you will be asked to choose your own the first time. Pick something only you know.
- Forgot it? Choose Forgot password. If no email arrives, write to the support address in the footer and they will reset it.
- Always Sign out on a shared phone or computer.
Put it on your home screen
The Chair App installs like an app, with no app store.
- On Android or desktop Chrome, tap Install in the banner at the bottom of the page, or choose Install app from the browser menu.
- On iPhone, open the page in Safari, tap the Share button, then choose Add to Home Screen.
- Open it from your home screen. It runs full screen and remembers you.
Tip: Every salon, and every barber, is its own app. Install the one you use most.
Make it easier to read
- Scroll to the footer and tap Display.
- Choose Light, Dark or Auto for the theme. Pick A+ or A++ for larger text.
- Turn on High contrast or Reduce motion if you need them. Your choices are remembered on this device.
