# Booking a desk with its QR code

## Scan the label on a desk to book it for today or check in

## Quick answer

**Where:** Scan the code with your phone's camera. It opens the **web app** ([app.deskfound.com](https://app.deskfound.com)) in your browser, not Slack.

Point your phone's camera at the QR code on the desk label and open the link. If the desk is free today, book it in one tap. If you've already booked it, tap **Check in**.

## What you'll see

- **The desk is free:** book it for today. If your office allows half days, you can choose the morning or afternoon.
- **You've booked this desk:** you'll see "You have this desk today" and a **Check in** button.
- **You're already checked in:** "You're checked in at this desk today."
- **Someone else has it:** "Taken today by" and their name.
- **It's a dedicated or unavailable desk**, or the office is closed today: you'll be told it can't be booked.

QR booking is always for today, in your office's timezone. To book a different day, tap **Open the full booking page**.

## Not signed in?

You'll be asked to sign in first, then taken straight back to the desk.

## Something's wrong with the label?

If you see "That desk no longer exists", the desk was removed. Ask your office admin to print a new label. See *Printing desk labels with QR codes*.
