## 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](ignition-modules\vision\vision-project-properties\vision-project-properties.md) window. This is typically used in situations where the client should login with a low access user, such as a 'guest' account. 

### Set the Clients to Automatically Login
In this example, we will set the project properties to allow Ignition clients to automatically login.

When in a client that has auto login set up, 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.
