A clearer record for the real working day
Location-Aware Attendance App should solve a recognisable workplace problem rather than simply move an old form onto a phone. The worker-facing part should remain simple: allow the requested location permission when completing the relevant booking. A documented exception route is just as important as the normal flow.
Managers can use booking time, workplace and the latest location context available from the device to understand whether the available location context matches the expected workplace. Unusual records still need context before they are corrected or relied upon. Good records depend on a good operating process, especially when the available information is late, incomplete or unexpected.
