That would require a dedicated app, so, no, not in the near future.
We do intend to implement push notifications from our Progressive Web App in the near future. [WebApp Notifications on Apple/Android]
Great news! We added a blogging platform directly inside OwnerRez websites. Read about it and watch the video here:

Hey Paul - so are there plans to at least set up push notifications?
Yes I know of that. But I bounce A LOT between properties and the various settings and to my website to see how they appear and affect my site. The shortcuts are only missing that one to make it perfect for me. Just thought it wouldn't be too much to ask and it wouldn't be too much of a consumption of space. The bookings, quotes & inquiries could be and should be condensed to one drop down menu for Bookings, if space is a real issue. I only ever click Bookings, Properties, Settings and Tools. To even add it under Tools would be great. It is a tool. :)
It would be helpful if Tags were shown on the mailing lists. Any way additional column(s) can be added to exports?
E-blasts still work for us. I keep my list under 2K so I can use the free version of MC. Our open rate is about 30% with about 6% clicks.
If you go to your website directly (the actual domain name) there's a bar that shows across the bottom of the website for you to "edit settings" quickly. It detects if you're logged in and shows the bar on your website all the time. That's probably the fastest way to get right to it. It also lets you edit the specific page you're looking at.
I mean the hosted website section in general. And it would be no different than the PM quick access that i don't use. I look over it though. Like others could if they don't use the website.
Hmm. What version of iOS are you on? v15 is supposed to have a pull to refresh gesture: https://www.iphonehacks.com/2021/06/safari-ios-15-offers-pull-to-refresh-gesture.html
I have. It does not seem to work in the PWA on iOS.
Not sure exactly what you mean here - are you wanting a link on the main menu to your website? What if you have several?
Or, just to the Hosted Website area? But, what if you aren't using that - seems like it would just take up main-menu real estate to no good purpose?
I would like to see a link or menu item (like in tools menu) or even a button in the header of the software that gives instant access to the hosted website section. A lot of what is done in the rest of the software is reflected in the website and its a pain to make a change and then go find the website again and check it out. To then have to go back and make another change. It's a lot of back and forth. Plus the website is a HUGE player in the grand scheme of things and yet it's so tucked and hidden.
Yes, we are aware of this, but at present Airbnb has no integration API for it available, so it is not possible for us to use that system.
Airbnb just rolled out a new feature, a WiFi tester that confirms the speed in your property and posts the speed on the listing. However, those of us who managed their listings' data via OwnerRez are not able to access this feature. Are you aware of this, and are you in the process of getting it available via OR?
Have you tried "pull down" on the screen? With mobile, that generally triggers a refresh.
What if it is for an in-person (no url to enter) source? Thanks! - Julia
The other thing that causes issues is the lack of a "refresh" option in the PWA. Sometimes (especially in areas with bad cell service or wifi), the page won't load, but there's no way to easily trigger a reload.
Another saintly enhancement. Thank you!!
Oh, you are saintly! Running financials today and it's gonna be a breeze!!

Hey Paul,Any ETA on this? Or am I just blind and not seeing the functionality? Thanks for this!
Not blind. Still in testing and should be out soon (ie. a few weeks now). This got delayed in testing for awhile.
I'll second what Karen said. While I like what RemoteLock is doing, it would be great if I didn't have to pay another charge per door.
This would be a great feature- Trash is one of my biggest challenges/ concerns.
Ability to create default user to receive all communication on a per property basis. Currently one user is receiving all email notications and using filters and forwards to send information per property to correct team member. Ideally we set a default team member per property.

Recommend sync a WiFi enabled thermostat (like Nest or Ecobee) with my owner Rez calendar.
This way it will adjust temp automatically before guest arrives and after guest leaves.
This went out in the latest release:

iOS lacks the universal "back" button that Android has. A swipe from the left edge can replicate it sometimes, but it doesn't always work smoothly.
Like the OP, I understand why OR has taken the PWA avenue for now, but as the product continues to mature and it becomes more of a centralized hub for communication (channel messaging, SMS, etc.), a real app with push notifications really is necessary. So I always upvote any feature request that leads to that. :)
Can some sort of warning be given if a CC given for a security hold will expire during or shortly after a booking.
