Set up your salon

Three steps. You'll need the license key from your welcome email and the tablet you'll use at the door.

Takes about 10 minutes
1

Find your license key

It arrived in your welcome email right after signup. It looks like this:

KAIRO-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX-2026
2

Open your owner dashboard

On any phone or computer, go to kairodesk.app/dashboard and paste your key. This is where you watch the queue, revenue, and staff — bookmark it.

3

Turn your tablet into the kiosk

On the tablet clients will use, open Chrome and type kairodesk.app/setup, then download the kiosk app below. Install it, open it, and enter the same key.

Download kiosk app (Android)
A popup will say your browser "isn't allowed to install unknown apps." Tap Settings on that popup, switch on Allow from this source, press Back, then tap Install.

Stuck?

I didn't get the welcome email

Check spam first. Still nothing? Recover your key with the email you signed up with.

The tablet says the app is blocked

Tap Settings on that popup and switch on Allow from this source, then go back and tap Install. On some tablets (Samsung, Realme) this setting instead lives under Settings → Apps → Special app access → Install unknown apps — find your browser there and allow it.

My key says invalid or expired

Trial keys stop after 7 days. Open your owner dashboard and pick a plan there — your shop's data is saved for 90 days.
