Pros and cons of Vacation Rentals Owner App app for iPhone and iPad

Vacation Rentals Owner App app good for

Honestly, I always cant wait for the next update to install, and not because there was any bug to fix. In contrary. All new improvements and features are waiting to be explored.
Thanks for the app, it is easy to use and has all the functions that are needed to respond to the enquirer and secure the booking.
I host with this app and have had no problems. Makes access to info super easy regardless of you location.
Ive never had trouble with this app although sometimes it crashes
I love this app because be my life very easy! I recommend use this app !!!
Easy to use and allows flexibility with adjusting dates and rates as needed. Easy for communication with guests.

Some bad moments

I have an iPhone 4, now I have to buy a new phone to run this app. I cant use the old flipkey app anymore so this is no good to me as a rental home owner
Its an ok app. It lets me do what I need to while managing my listing. So it works. However: its clunky and awkward. The menu drop down just feels a little funny. Not the best UI but usable. Biggest issue: WHY DOES IT FULLY REFRESH WHEN ANYTHING HAPPENS ON MY PHONE?? Ive had to rewrite a response several times only to finally give up and write in Notes app so that when a text comes in or I flip to another app to refer to dates the whole damn thing doesnt reload and blow away everything I was writing. So frustrating. Im assuming its live polling the website in the most literal sense, I am not typing in the app, I am typing on the website via the app and nothing is stored locally like a regular well behaved app. Fix this for the love of God, please and Ill give ya a couple more stars. Thanks.
This app drives me crazy as it refreshes itself if you get distracted and erases any information about your rental you may have added to help provide info to potential guests. So I guess its fine as long as you dont have any specific questions to answer or ever get a phone call in the middle of responding.
I have properties listed on other sites including Airbnb. It amazes me that tripadvisor gets any business at all in the competitive vacation rental market. When an owner responds to a potential guests inquiry.....the app & desktop platform look for any sign that the owner has included a phone number, email or website address (thinking they are trying to book outside of tripadvisor). I responded to a guest on a request that I wanted to approve so I sent their standard "send a quote" reply. I didnt add anything to the canned reply and I got an automatic response that said my inquiry was being blocked because I was trying to circumvent the system. I clicked send again and thought it went thru. Checked an hour later and my "send a quote" response provided by trip advisor was completely blocked so my guest did not get my response. Also, if you as an owner simply reply to a tripadvisor email & forget you have a auto fill signature....your email gets blocked & they warn you that if it happens repeatedly...youll be banned from their site & your listing will be pulled. How does Airbnb handle situations like this? They just hide the sensitive info and let the message go thru. Paranoia apparently is a company trait at TripAdvisor.... They really should realize that blocking owners messages is costing their company & vacation rental owners a lot of money. I guess thats why Airbnb is getting the bulk of the business. As a vacation rental owner, Ill continue to list on tripadvisor (unless they ban me) because I will likely get a few bookings here and there. Airbnb is still going to deliver me many more bookings!
I agree with a previous review. There is no way to sign as a new user. Im stuck.
The new app is a major improvement over the slow and clunky old FlipKey app. Job well done, TripAdvisor!
