Design your visitor pages

Everything a visitor sees on their phone is shaped here. One Visitor pages designer drives them all, and a live preview updates as you edit — Save makes it real.

Owner & Manager Where: Visitor pages 6 min read
Preview across devices and states. Switch the preview between phone, tablet and computer, and step through states like “Line is full” or “You're closed” — so you see exactly what a visitor sees before anyone does.

The pages you design

The rail lists five visitor surfaces plus the designer itself. Pick a page and the inspector shows what you can change on it. Some pages, like the tracking page, have no form — there's nothing to ask for there.

  • Join page — where a visitor joins your line.
  • Tracking page — the tracking link they follow while they wait.
  • Kiosk — the tablet at your counter.
  • Appointment page — where a visitor books a time in advance.
  • Their appointment — where they manage an appointment they already made.

Look

Under Look, keep Use your business brand on to inherit your account's colour and light theme, or override just this surface — an accent colour, a background, a text size (Small → Extra large) and bold headings.

How contrast is guarded

What you seeWhat it means
A “may be hard to read” warning next to a colour That combination is hard to read, so change it.
Under the accent colour: “Buttons use your colour with dark text · used 5.21:1” This is the opposite of what most people expect. The button is painted exactly as you chose it — it is the writing on the button that goes dark or light so it stays readable. Smaller touches such as hover shades and coloured text may be darkened a little so they stay readable too.
A note under a dark background colour Dark backgrounds are not used on visitor pages — customers see the light page instead. Pick a light colour to change it.
What the contrast number means It is simply how much contrast was measured between the button colour and its writing. Higher is easier to read.

Words

Looking to change the sentences themselves? The link Change the words your visitors read opens Wording and languages.

Words sets a custom heading (empty uses your business and line name) and, on the join page, a welcome message that applies to every line at this location. Default language sets the language of the visitor screens for this location — and only the screens.

Default language sets the screens, not a visitor's messages. A visitor's WhatsApp and email messages come in the language their own page was shown in. Default language only decides what a page says when a visitor's phone gives us no better answer — and, for visitors we know no language for (people you add at the desk, the counter tablet), the location's own language or your business language in Settings decides their messages.

Which language a visitor sees

Whose screen it isWhich language wins
A visitor's own phone (join, tracking, online appointment, manage an appointment) Their phone's language wins, if it is one of the six turnda ships. Your setting is the fallback.
A screen that belongs to you (the counter tablet and the lobby TV) Your setting always wins. The device is ignored, because a lobby TV is your signage, not anyone's phone.
Neither yields one of the six languages The page is in English.

A visitor can also change the language themselves for their visit, with the small Language picker on the page (join, appointment page, tracking page, WhatsApp join and the kiosk join screen — never the lobby TV). It is remembered for the visit, but not on the shared counter tablet. See Which language visitors see.

What you ask for

On form pages, the designer only previews what you ask for. The field switches — Name, Email, Mobile number, Party size, What they need, Vehicle / plate and Note for staff, each on or off and optional or required — are set line by line on the Questions page, and the designer has an Open Questions button that takes you there.

PageWhat it asks out of the box
Join Name and Email, both on and both optional — one tap joins. Party size is off.
Kiosk Nothing. Name and Party size are off, and the kiosk can't offer Mobile number or Email at all (a shared tablet can't own a contact).
Appointment (booking) Name, Email and What they need, all on and all required. Party size is off (you can switch it on).

Mobile number is a different switch from Email, and it starts off. It is a number your staff can see and call about the visit — nothing is ever sent to it, no WhatsApp and no marketing. A visitor still gives just one contact for messages (the Email box, or the WhatsApp they choose to turn on). When a visitor types a contact, a tick box appears asking if they are happy to be messaged about their place in line; the wording follows which channels the line uses.

Ship only what you truly need The fastest join is a single tap.
Who can change this The owner can. A manager can too, as long as the owner has left the Make and change questions switch on in Manager permissions; with it off, a manager sees the Questions page read-only. What you ask for decides what personal data your business holds, so the owner decides who may change it.

The full field-by-field table is on The Join page.

Preview every state — before a visitor does

The live phone-frame preview has a state switcher, plus a phone / tablet / computer device switch, so you can see each page in every situation it can be in — not just the happy path.

PageStates you can preview
Join page The form · Contact filled in · Line is full · You're closed · Joining paused · Not taking visitors.
Tracking page Waiting · Only appointments ahead · Their turn · Completed.
Kiosk Welcome · Number given · Line full.
Appointment page Pick a time · Details · Booked.
Their appointment Their appointment · Reschedule · Cancelled.
Check every state after a change Step through them after any colour or wording change — a full or closed state uses your same design, and it's the one a frustrated visitor sees.

Saving — when it becomes real

Nothing reaches a visitor while you edit. The preview updates as you type, but the live pages change only when you press Save — a "Visitor page saved" toast confirms it.

  • Leaving with unsaved changes? The app asks — “Leave without saving?” — so work isn't lost by accident.
  • Each page keeps its own look and its own questions. Saving the kiosk never touches the join page.
  • If a save fails, a box titled Not saved says what you see is not what your visitors are getting. Press Save again.
  • If someone else saved while you were editing, the page tells you. Your edits stay on screen; saving replaces their changes, or you can press Load their version instead.
  • Switching location with unsaved changes discards them, and the page warns you first.
Looking for TV settings here? The designer has a few basic lobby-TV settings (layout, names on the TV, no-show wording), but a TV with its own design is built in Displays. If a manager finds this whole page read-only, the owner has switched off the Edit visitor-page branding permission in Manager permissions.

No location yet

If there is no location, an owner is told to create one. Staff are told to ask their owner or manager to assign them.
