How to Ban and Unban a Guest in Vēmos App


This covers banning a guest through the Vēmos ID Scan app. Banning through the dashboard is covered in a separate article, linked at the bottom of this page.

Banning a Guest in Real Time

  1. Scan the guest's ID
  2. Tap Ban — displayed in red
  3. Select a reason for the ban and add any internal notes for your staff
  4. Optionally adjust the ban duration — defaults to permanent if left unchanged

If you need to ban a guest who had been scanned earlier that same day, you can still do this through the Vēmos ID Scan app.


Banning a Guest You Scanned Earlier Today

  1. Go to Day History in the bottom toolbar
  2. Search for the guest name
  3. Click the ban icon 🚫
  4. Select a reason for the ban and add any internal notes for your staff
  5. Optionally adjust the ban duration

Note: The app only contains data for the day, while the dashboard contains all historical data.


Reviewing or Unbanning a Previously Banned Guest

You can also manage your ban list from the Vēmos ID Scan app. Follow these steps to review details or unban a guest within the app:

  1. Navigate to the Ban List tab in the bottom toolbar
  2. Search for the guest name
  3. From here you can review the ban reason, internal notes, or remove the ban
