- Staff schedule and time clock
Employee time clock app next to your staff schedule.
A therapist arrives, enters a personal PIN on the front desk computer and taps Start. You see who is at work, who is late and what needs reviewing, and at the end of the month you print a timesheet or export it for payroll.
Rytuo includes an employee time clock app built into the same system as your staff schedule: clock in with a personal PIN at the front desk computer or tablet, or on the phone, see the schedule next to real hours, fix missing entries with a reason, record absences and print or export a monthly timesheet. There are no biometrics and no background tracking.
Working hours in the same system as the schedule
Many studios keep track of hours on a sheet at the front desk or in a spreadsheet filled in from memory at the end of the month. A separate time-tracking app means another login and often another fee per person.
In Rytuo the time clock is part of the system that already holds the therapists' schedule. Clock-in and clock-out are recorded at the front desk with a PIN or on the phone, and the panel shows the differences between the schedule and real hours straight away. Nothing is filled in automatically: a missing clock-out waits for a manager's correction with a reason, so the record matches what really happened.
Location on the phone is checked only at the moment of tapping, without photos or biometric data. For independent contractors, time recording can be switched off. How hours are paid, and what records you must keep, depends on your contracts and on federal and state rules; Rytuo gives you an accurate record and a CSV for whoever runs your payroll.

What you get
PIN at the front desk
A front desk computer or tablet paired with a one-time code. Each person has their own PIN; no smartphone needed.
Phone, with location only at the tap
A zone around the studio or the studio Wi-Fi. Starting away from the studio is possible with a reason and goes to review.
Schedule next to real hours
Late starts, breaks and missing clock-outs are visible straight away, in the day and month views.
Corrections with a reason
A manager corrects an entry and gives a reason; a therapist can request a correction. Everything stays in the history.
Monthly timesheet
A printable timesheet for one person or everyone, as a PDF, plus a CSV export for payroll.
No biometrics
No photos, fingerprints or background tracking. We only store at the studio or not, and the distance.
The month and the timesheet
The month view adds up hours worked per person, with days off and absences marked with a code, such as vacation or sick leave. Print or save a closed month as a PDF, each person on a separate page. A few wrong PIN attempts lock the keypad for a few minutes, and a therapist who tapped by mistake can undo it with "Not me, undo".
Rytuo also reminds you before staff documents expire, such as work permits, visas, contracts or a therapist's state massage license recorded as a document, so nobody works a shift on an expired document by accident. Licensing rules by state are in our guide to the massage license by state.
Setting up the time clock
- Choose the methods: front desk PIN, phone or both. Set the studio zone or Wi-Fi and the rules for starting away from the studio.
- Set up your people: whether time is recorded for them and a PIN for each person. Therapists can change their PIN in the app.
- Pair the front desk computer: a one-time code links the browser at the front desk to your studio. From then on clock-ins are recorded on their own.
The time clock sits next to therapist pay, which is calculated from completed appointments, and room and couples scheduling. It is part of the Salon plan (pricing). Overview: massage therapist software.
Questions about the time clock
How do therapists clock in and out?
On the computer or tablet at the front desk: they pick their name, enter a personal PIN and tap Start or End of work. If you switch it on, they can also tap Start on their phone, in their Rytuo app. You turn each method on or off in the studio settings.
Does the time clock app track therapists' location?
No. On the phone, location is checked only at the moment of tapping Start or End, and we store only whether the person was at the studio and the distance. No background tracking, no photos, no fingerprints and no face recognition. Your studio's Wi-Fi can be used instead of location.
What if someone forgets to clock out?
Half an hour after the studio closes, the entry is flagged as a missing clock-out and goes to the "To review" list. Nothing is filled in automatically: a manager corrects the time and enters a reason, and the correction stays in the history.
Can I print the timesheet?
Yes. Print or save the monthly timesheet as a PDF, for one person or for everyone at once, each person on a separate page with space for signatures. You can also download the data as a CSV file for your payroll provider or accountant.
Can therapists see their own hours?
Yes. Each therapist sees their hours for every day and the whole month on their phone, can request a correction with an explanation and can download their own timesheet as a PDF.
