Coming soon: More features and improvements!

A faster, more intuitive experience

We’ve all experienced that sense of frustration when technology just can’t keep up. We talked to Roger Lu, our app aficionado here at Tripadvisor Rentals, about how the latest updates to the app are resulting in a faster and more intuitive experience.

He explained that in the last year, they’ve been working on making the app primarily “native”. We asked him what that means for owners and managers using it.

“It brings huge performance improvements. The pages load faster and interaction with the app is much more responsive.”

Sounds good, Roger. As more and more features of the app are built in this way, the experience will continue to improve for owners and managers wanting to achieve more in less time.

“The Inbox, Conversation page, Calendar and My Listings are faster and more responsive now. And we have a new Profile page coming soon which will join them.”

So what can you do on the app?

Essentially, everything you can do on your desktop or tablet! When the app was first launched in 2015, there were limitations – you couldn’t set or edit rates, for example.

But now, virtually all the features available in the desktop owner center are also available on the app: set rates, send quotes, update your calendar and more!

5 Benefits Enjoyed by App Users

The ways using the app can benefit owners and managers is extensive, but here are five to get you started:

Message guests with ease (make back-and-forth with guests quicker and more manageable)
Respond quicker (owners who respond within 6 hours are twice as likely to turn an inquiry into a booking!)
Get instant updates (push notifications alert you to all new messages, inquiries and bookings)
Upload and manage photos (available now on Android, coming soon for Apple)
Access all your dashboard features

Many owners are already enjoying the flexibility and convenience delivered by the app:
