The short setup you see after joining: what it asks, what you can skip, and where to change your details later.

For employees
Updated October 9, 2026

The first time you sign in, Atteny asks for the personal details your employer still needs. It asks only for what is missing, so it takes about a minute.

Your address and emergency contact are never shown to your colleagues, and neither is your year of birth. If your company switches birthdays on, colleagues see the day and month of your birthday.

On the phone the setup comes before everything else: Home opens when you have finished it.

  1. 1

    Tap Get started

    The first-run welcome screen with the person's first name, the app's note on which details stay private, and a Get started button
  2. 2

    Check your name

    About you always comes first, already filled in with what your employer typed, so you can fix a misspelling. Only the first name is required.

    The About you step: a progress bar reading Step 1 of 5, fields for first name, last name, preferred name and pronouns, and the buttons Back, Continue and Skip this step
  3. 3

    Answer the remaining steps

    The steps that can follow are Mobile number, Your address, Emergency contact and Date of birth. You only see the ones still empty. The bar at the top shows how far you are, and Back takes you to the step before.

  4. 4

    Skip what is not required

    A step your employer does not require has Skip this step under the button. A required step has no skip. Unless your employer changed it, the required ones are your mobile number and your date of birth.

  5. 5

    Set your usual week

    If your company uses availability, the last step is Your usual week: the hours you can normally work. It has no skip link, but you can leave a day blank; a blank day normally counts as available at any time. What you save here counts as your first usual week, and only the first is sure to apply without your manager's approval, so set your real hours now if you can. See How do I submit my availability?

When you finish, your phone asks once whether Atteny may send notifications. Say yes if you want to hear about new shifts and approvals.

On the phone you finish this setup first: answer the required steps and skip the rest. After that, nothing you entered or skipped here affects clocking in. That depends on what your admin set for you: a work location and, where your company runs payroll in Atteny, an employment type and a pay group.

Change your details later#

On the phone, open More and tap My details. On the web, open My Profile.

A field may be locked once it is filled in. Your employer decides which details you can change yourself; for a locked one, ask your admin.
