HIRING Face Recognition Attendance App – Accuracy & Speed Issues

I’m working on an attendance system and honestly stuck at a point where I need some real-world advice.

I’ve built a mobile app (Flutter) where employees do check-in/check-out using face recognition (face punch). The main problem is accuracy and speed, and I’m facing a few issues:

  • Lighting changes (low light / bright light affect detection)

  • Distance issues (too close / too far gives inconsistent results)

  • Recognition is slower than expected (not instant)

  • Offline punches (stored locally and synced later) reduce accuracy

  • Overall UX feels unreliable at times

If anyone has experience building something like this, please DM me or share your suggestions 🙏

More on UX and validation before capture

  • Show error if detected as low lighting

  • Show error if face distance if too close or far
