Sign in without typing a password
Save a passkey once and you sign in with Face ID, Touch ID or your screen lock instead of a password. Here is how, and what to do when a password is forgotten.
Day to day the app keeps you signed in on your own device. You only meet the sign-in page on a new device, after signing out, or after a password reset, and a passkey makes even that one tap.
Before you start
- Use your own phone, tablet or computer, with Face ID, Touch ID, a fingerprint or a screen lock switched on.
Steps
Save a passkey after you sign in
- Step 1
Sign in once with your email (or username) and password.
- Step 2
When Next time, just your face appears, tap Save on this device.
- Step 3
Confirm with Face ID, Touch ID or your screen lock. You see Saved — next time just your face.
- Step 4
Next time, tap Sign in with a passkey on the sign-in page and confirm the same way.
Add a passkey later, or on another device
- Step 5
Tap your initials in the top bar, then My profile.
- Step 6
Under Passkeys, tap Add a passkey.
- Step 7
Confirm on the device. The passkey joins the list with the day it was added.
A forgotten password
- Step 8
On the sign-in page, tap Forgot password?.
- Step 9
Type your email and tap Send reset link.
- Step 10
Open the link in the email and choose a new password of at least 8 characters.
- Step 11
Sign in with it, then save a passkey again: a reset removes the old ones.
What happens next
- The app keeps you signed in on this device. Nobody at the counter has to retype a password during the day.
- A password change or reset signs the account out on every other device and removes its passkeys, so a lost phone can't get back in.
- Sign out of all devices in your profile does the same, including this device.
Questions
The reset email never arrives. What now?
Is a passkey safe?
Can the sign-in page be in Spanish?
If you see this…

What to do
Open Zero POS in Safari on an iPhone, iPad or Mac, or in Chrome, and add the passkey there.
On screen
This device already has a passkey — next time just your face.

Nothing to do: use Sign in with a passkey next time.
On screen
“Invalid email or password.”
What to do
Check the email and the password, then try again. Still stuck? Use Forgot password?.

Enter your workspace code to sign in with a username.
What to do
A username needs the workspace code too. Type it, or sign in with your email instead.
Good to know
- Changing your password in your profile also removes your passkeys: add one again straight after.
