Hello Time: Attendance & HR

HelloTime Attend is the worker app for HelloTime — a modern workforce attendance, time-tracking, and mileage platform built for Indian small and mid-sized businesses. Replace paper registers, biometric machines, and clunky WhatsApp check-ins with one app that just works — even when the network doesn't.

FREE PLAN
Free for small businesses. No credit card. Includes face clock-in, GPS geofencing, mileage tracking, leave requests, and meeting recording. Your employer upgrades to a paid plan on the HelloTime web app if they need advanced reporting or larger teams — you are never charged personally.

WHY TEAMS SWITCH TO HELLOTIME

- Face + liveness clock-in stops buddy-punching. The face match runs on your phone — your biometric template never leaves the device.
- GPS geofence around every site, branch, and project. Workers can't clock in from home or from the parking lot down the road.
- Truly offline. Clock in on a basement floor, in a warehouse, or on a delivery route — entries are queued in an encrypted local database and sync automatically the moment you're back online.
- Mileage tracker with photo receipts and configurable rates (India per-km or IRS). Trips auto-detect, you confirm the stops, and a clean reimbursement report writes itself.
- Voice-named time entries. Hold the mic, say "site visit at Mumbai HQ," and the app fills the description for you. No typing required.
- Meeting recorder with on-device speech-to-text. Capture, transcribe, and attach meetings to a project — without uploading audio you don't want to upload.
- Hindi, Gujarati, and English UI out of the box. More Indian languages on the way.

FOR WORKERS

- See today's hours, weekly totals, leave balance, and shift schedule in one place
- Request casual, sick, or earned leave in seconds; get a push notification the moment it's approved or rejected
- Track your own mileage and share a clean reimbursement PDF with your manager
- PIN fallback if the camera can't read your face (low light, mask, glasses)
- Lightweight on data — designed for 3G coverage and budget Android phones

FOR EMPLOYERS

- Real-time attendance dashboard on the HelloTime web app
- Per-site geofence rules, working-hour policies, and overtime caps
- Approve or reject leave from your phone with two taps
- Audit-ready timesheets that plug into HelloBooks, Tally, Razorpay payouts, and most Indian payroll tools
- Role-based access — managers see their team, HR sees the org

PRIVACY & SECURITY

We take data protection seriously. HelloTime is SOC 2 Type II certified. Your data is stored on Microsoft Azure (Mumbai region for Indian customers, US-East for US customers). Face templates are matched on-device and are never used for advertising, training models, or shared with third parties. The local database on your phone is encrypted with SQLCipher and a per-install 256-bit key held in the Android Keystore. You can revoke any permission (camera, location, microphone) from your phone settings without uninstalling — only the matching feature stops working.

Under India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, you can request a copy of your data, correct it, or ask for it to be deleted. Email [email protected] with the subject "DPDP Request" and we respond within 15 days.
