Overview: Employees can view their punch status from the Buddy Punch website or mobile app, though visibility depends on the punch option being used. In some cases, punch status is shown as a stationary indicator (e.g., on the Time Entry page), while in others, employees may only see a confirmation notification after punching in or out.
