What is a waiver app?

A waiver app is a mobile or tablet-friendly way to collect waiver forms and signatures digitally. It helps customers sign without paper and helps staff find completed records later.

Can customers use their own phones?

Yes. A waiver app workflow can use links and QR codes so customers open the waiver on their own device.

Can staff use a tablet waiver app at check-in?

Yes. A tablet or iPad workflow works well for front-desk signing when customers need to complete a waiver on site.

Is a waiver app different from waiver software?

A waiver app focuses on device-based signing. Waiver software includes the broader system for forms, sharing, signatures, storage, and team access.

Can a waiver app store signed records?

Yes. With WaiverForever, signed waiver records are stored digitally so staff can search and retrieve them later.
