Internet startup Airbnb has announced the release of new versions of its mobile applications, which are designed to simplify interaction with guests for 350,000 property owners around the world.
These programs, available for both iOS and Android, contain a set of new tools that allow you to organize a reception using mobile devices, which allows hosts to make a choice in favor of a full transition to mobile gadgets, both for work and for entertainment.
New mobile applications include a control panel for the host – this panel allows hosts to promptly respond to incoming messages, accept booking requests, coordinate the visit of future guests, update their calendar and submit requests for photography. Applications for both Android and iOS have received a new concise design. They are easy to use, filled with dynamic and interactive elements.
Groups for hosts is another new service for communication within the community consisting of Airbnb hosts. This platform allows hosts to create groups in their neighborhoods, cities or around the world to share the best experiences and learn from each other. By joining a group, each host can easily start chatting with their host friends, as well as organize meetings to get to know their neighbors.
The design of the new mobile applications is based on the Discover feed, which presents the most inspiring and interesting housing options – from igloo huts, Indian and Eskimo dwellings, unusual treehouses and ending with houses where politicians, show business stars and musicians who were popular all over the world lived. Now iOS and Android users can organize trips in a variety of directions right on the go.
Airbnb is the world’s largest hospitality company. On Airbnb, hosts rent out their free housing, ranging from apartments to treehouses, castles and villas, in more than 34,000 cities around the world. Travelers view ads that suit their taste and budget, and then book them online or via mobile phone.
