GPS attendance for multi-site teams

Feature Overview
A geofencing attendance system uses a virtual boundary to define where workers can record attendance. Truein checks the device’s reported location against the configured worksite boundary and uses face recognition to verify the worker. Attendance records bring time and location information together for review and payroll preparation.
Manage attendance across construction sites, facilities, warehouses and other distributed workplaces from one dashboard.

Benefits
Designed for contractors, subcontractors, hourly staff and crews that move between sites.
Choose from 70+ ready-to-use rules to manage shifts, overtime and breaks under your attendance policies.
Clock-ins are verified through face recognition combined with circular or polygon geofencing, and work without an active internet connection.
Runs on mobile devices or tablets. No dedicated hardware required, so it is quick to roll out across sites.
One dashboard shows attendance across all sites, with payroll-ready reports that reduce manual consolidation.
Worksites do not always fit inside a circle. With Truein's polygon geofencing, you can draw a custom boundary around your work area in the dashboard, so nearby roads, neighboring properties and other areas outside your worksite are not covered just to fit the whole site within a circular radius.
Use a circular geofence where a location and radius define the clock-in zone well, or choose a polygon for irregular, elongated or closely spaced work areas. Configure a circular or polygon boundary for each location, apply it across all your sites, and test it where workers will clock in.
Quick FAQ’s
Yes. Truein supports custom polygon geofences as well as circular geofences. Administrators draw a custom boundary with multiple points around the work area in the dashboard.
Use a polygon when the work area is irregular or elongated, or when a circle would include too much space outside the site. A circle works well when a location and radius define the attendance area adequately. Both use the device's reported location; a polygon changes the boundary shape, not the underlying GPS accuracy.
Yes. Each location can have its own boundary, circular or polygon, to suit that worksite.


Manage location-based attendance for workers who move between sites. Truein records time and location information for clock-ins, helping managers review attendance across worksites from one dashboard. Apply your configured attendance rules to determine where workers can clock in.
Quick FAQ’s
Yes. Truein supports attendance records across multiple locations. Where a worker can clock in depends on the location permissions and attendance rules configured for your organization.
Yes. Each clock-in record carries its time and reported location, and managers can review records across worksites from the dashboard.
When blocking is enabled, clock-ins outside the boundary are rejected. Other configurations can allow them with alerts or approval.

Capture attendance offline and sync records when connectivity returns. Truein supports face recognition and GPS attendance capture without an active internet connection, helping teams record attendance at remote and temporary worksites.
Quick FAQ’s
Yes. Truein captures attendance offline and syncs records when connectivity returns. Location capture still requires the device to obtain usable location information.
No. Records are stored on the device until they sync. Offline records become available centrally after syncing.
Yes. The Truein attendance app is available for Android and iOS.


Location verification is only part of a trustworthy attendance record. Truein combines GPS geofencing with face recognition to help prevent buddy punching and unauthorized clock-ins. Workers can record attendance using supported mobile or kiosk setups, according to your deployment and policies. AI TimeGuard adds another layer of review by flagging suspicious attendance patterns for your team to investigate.
Quick FAQ’s
Face recognition helps verify that the worker recording attendance is the enrolled person. Geofencing checks the location, while face verification checks identity. Together, they help reduce unauthorized attendance records.
No. Clock-ins are checked against the geofence configured for each site. When blocking is enabled, clock-ins outside the boundary are rejected.
Yes. Truein supports facial recognition even with mask and glasses

Workers can view attendance, request corrections, check assigned shifts and apply for leave through the Truein app. Managers can review and approve requests according to configured permissions.
Quick FAQ’s
Yes. Attendance history is available in the app.
Yes, for both workers and managers.
It reduces manual correction and leave requests handled by HR.


Apply attendance policies for shifts, breaks and other work rules, then review records across sites. Export payroll-ready attendance reports to support your payroll process and reduce manual consolidation.
Quick FAQ’s
Yes. Policies for shifts, breaks, overtime and late marks can be configured to your rules.
Yes, in spreadsheet and other supported formats.
Yes. Schedule delivery daily, weekly or monthly.

A geofencing attendance system uses a virtual boundary to control where workers can record attendance. Truein checks the device's reported location against the configured boundary and combines location verification with face recognition.
Accuracy depends on the device's location reading and conditions at the site. A polygon helps the configured boundary follow the work area more closely, but does not increase GPS accuracy. Test the boundary at the places where workers will record attendance, particularly near edges or buildings.
Geofenced attendance checks location when attendance is recorded. It should not be interpreted as proof that a worker stayed within the site throughout the shift. Ask our team about separate live location tracking requirements.
Locations can be uploaded in bulk with their coordinates and site area, which creates a default boundary for each one. The polygon itself is not uploaded: you then open each location in the dashboard and draw the custom boundary to match the site.
Truein supports integrations, APIs and attendance report exports for HR and payroll workflows. Available connections and setup requirements depend on the systems you use.
Managers can review attendance and worked hours across sites and use available reports for payroll preparation. Ask our team about the filters, formats and reporting options relevant to your workflow.
For information about the collection and handling of attendance and location data, see Truein's Privacy Policy. Our team can explain the data handling and access controls relevant to your deployment.
Yes. Both platforms support clock-ins, attendance records, leave applications, notifications and other self-service tools.
Yes. Training is provided for managers and admins, with repeat sessions if team changes occur.
Policies, alerts and access levels can be set by site, department, role or staff category.
