This study presents the first systematic review of AppSheet-based no-
code attendance systems, synthesizing outcomes, features, and
sectoral adoption from 23 eligible studies published between 2020
and 2025. A PRISMA-guided systematic literature review was
conducted using Google Scholar, and the included studies were
assessed for quality using the CASP checklist and synthesized using
a narrative descriptive approach. Results indicate that AppSheet
enhances efficiency, accuracy, transparency, and user satisfaction
compared to manual methods. Two dominant features, GPS with
selfie verification and QR code validation, were identified, along
with variations such as digital signatures and WhatsApp-linked QR
codes, which underscores the platform’s adaptability. Adoption is
concentrated in the education sector, with limited but emerging
applications in government and industry. From a practical
perspective, AppSheet provides a flexible and low-cost solution for
digitalizing attendance in resource-constrained environments. From
a theoretical perspective, this review contributes to the no-code
application development literature by demonstrating how non-
technical users can design functional systems tailored to
organizational needs. Limitations include reliance on Google Scholar
and potential language bias. Future research should broaden database
coverage and explore integration with biometric authentication,
blockchain-based security, or ERP systems to enhance scalability and
data security.
