How the welcome screen works
If you have a logo uploaded for your location, that logo will appear on your welcome screen by default. If you do not have a logo, your company name will appear in black text. This article will outline other options to customize the welcome screen design.

Designing the welcome screen
Your welcome screen is yours. You choose if you’d like to leave it simple, or add a more complex design.
Tip: Envoy automatically selects a matching accent color for your buttons, but you can change it in the Location Settings in your Envoy dashboard under Accent color.
Logo
By default, your logo will appear on a white background.
Welcome image
You can use the welcome image feature to display an image (or GIF!) that’s different from your company logo.
Enable the welcome image
Navigate to Visitors > Settings > Welcome screen.
Locate Welcome image and click “Edit”
Upload an image or GIF. Images that are 1000px square are best.
Click “Save”

You can also use Background images and Welcome image to show more about your company. If you only want a background image you can also disable showing the company logo from the screen.

Background color
By default, your logo or welcome image will appear on a white background, but you can change your background color at any time.

Click “Choose a color.”

Tip: Envoy will automatically determine if the text should appear black or white, based on which will be easiest to read.
Welcome screen features
In addition to the welcome screen design, there are three features that you’ll also configure from your Visitors > Settings > Welcome screen page.
When enabled, these features will appear as a button on the bottom of your iPad’s welcome screen.
Deliveries
The deliveries feature within Envoy Visitors allows you to designate one employee in your directory as the delivery contact. That person will receive a special notification whenever a delivery is signed in on the Visitor sign-in kiosk. Learn more about delivery contact notifications.
