With your own tiles you bring the tools your network uses outside Symiko into one place: till, intranet, order portal or your social media pages. Tapping the tile opens the link.
Add a tile
In the browser, open "Menu" → "All settings" → "Start page" and go to the "Custom tiles" section.
Tap "Add tile".
Enter a "Title" (up to 40 characters) and, if you like, a "Short text (optional)" (up to 120 characters).
Under "Link", enter the full address, for example https://till.example.com. Only links that start with https:// are allowed.
Choose an "Icon": Link, Till, Intranet, Ordering, Social media, Phone, Document, Calendar, Video, Help, Shop or Map.
Under "For whom", tick the roles: employees, shift leads, partners (also with several locations) or head office. At least one role is required.
Under "Locations", choose "All locations" or "Selected locations only" and then tick the locations.
Tap "Save tile". Symiko shows "Tile saved."
- At most 24 tiles per system.
- The link has at most 500 characters and needs a full host name with a dot. Spaces and special characters do not work.
- Phone numbers or email addresses do not work as links – only web pages with https://.
Where the tiles appear
- On "Home" in the "Quick access" block – as long as the block is switched on for the role (see Design the start page for each role).
- In the "Menu" in the "Quick access" section, and on a computer in the sidebar.
- Only for the chosen roles and locations. Nobody else sees the tile.

Edit, sort and delete tiles

- "Delete" asks "Delete this tile?" and then removes the tile for everyone.
Frequently asked questions
Why does Symiko not accept my link?
The link must start with https:// and be a full address without spaces or special characters, for example https://intranet.example.com/start. It is best to copy it straight from the browser's address bar.
Does the page behind the link learn anything about Symiko?
No. The link opens without saying which page it came from and without your Symiko sign-in. Whether you need to sign in on the target page is up to that page.
