# Control Guest Type Visibility

You may want certain Guest Types to be used only for invites, while others can only be used for tablet-based sign-in. Visibility controls allow admins to decide where each Guest Type is available.

#### Toggle the needed visibility controls:

a. **Tablet**: Allows visitors to sign in using the Guest app with this Guest Type.\
b. **Mobile Sign-in**: Makes this Guest Type available on personal devices. Visitors sign in by scanning a QR code with their mobile device.\
c. **Invites**: Allows any host to use this Guest Type for event registration through [my.verkada.com](https://help.verkada.com/guest/configuration-and-setup/guest-events/manage-events-from-the-employee-portal) and [calendar shortcuts](https://help.verkada.com/guest/configuration-and-setup/guest-events/create-guest-events-with-calendar-shortcuts).
