## Client Auto Login
Clients can log in automatically when launched, once you specify the **Auto Login** settings in the **Client/Login** section of the **Project Properties** window. This is typically used in situations where the client should login with a low access user, such as a 'guest' account.

### To Set the Clients to Automatically Login

1. In the Designer, go to **Project** > **Properties**. The **Project Properties** window is displayed.
2. Go to the **Client** > **Login** page, and select the **Enable Auto-Login** box.
3. Type any Username and Password you want. For example, you can type:
    * Username: **guest**
    * Password: **password**
4. Click **OK**.

5. Select the **File** > **Save and Publish** to save your changes to the Gateway and publish your project.

 When in a client that has auto login setup, if the user accidentally logs out there is a button on the login screen to allow the user to enter in the auto login credentials. That way there is no need for them to know any login credentials.

## Mobile Auto Login
Mobile Clients can log in automatically when launched once you specify the **Auto Login** settings in the **Mobile/General** section of the **Project Properties** window. This behaves the same as the above auto-login, but requires separate credentials for Mobile. This option will only be available when the [Mobile Module](getting-started\ignition-modules\core-modules\mobile-module.md) is installed.

### To Set the Mobile Clients to Automatically Login

1. In the Designer, go to **Project** > **Properties**. The **Project Properties** window is displayed.
2. Go to the **Mobile** > **General** page, and select the **Enable Auto-Login** box.
3. Type any Username and Password you want. For example, you can type:
    * Username: **guest**
    * Password: **password**
4. Click **OK** and select **File** > **Save and Publish** to save your changes to the Gateway and publish your project.

5. Go to the Gateway **Home** page, find the **Mobile Launch** section, and click on the link. This launches the Client in your mobile device and automatically logs you in the web browser.
