A single listing can generate many action items that demand an agent’s immediate attention. Moreover, most clients now expect to be kept in the loop on all relevant updates as soon after they’re made as possible. Thankfully, showing management technology now makes meeting both needs easier than ever before.

Of course, not all technology is made the same, and nowhere is that more apparent than it is with notification options. For example, ShowingTime users can opt to receive notifications by email, text and/or as a push notification through the ShowingTime mobile app, and while each option can be useful, we’ve learned from user feedback that the latter option provides the optimal experience for receiving timely notifications.

The reason is simple: Push notifications delivered through the ShowingTime mobile app are instant and unlike text notifications, are unaffected by any phone provider issues. When push notifications are enabled, if users have access to either a Wi-Fi or mobile data connection, they’ll receive all pertinent updates – it’s that simple!

An example of a ShowingTime push notification as seen on an Apple device (top) and an Android device (bottom).

Push notifications show up as a banner at the top of your mobile device’s screen, displaying relevant details about appointment status updates, feedback notifications and messages from other agents. This helps users stay current at a glance. Of course, if users do miss the push notification when it first appears, the notification is still accessible from within the ShowingTime mobile app.

ShowingTime users can enable push notifications in four easy steps. To learn how to receive push notifications through the ShowingTime mobile app, click here.

Access to push notifications is just one reason why the ShowingTime mobile app is a must-have for all ShowingTime users. Users of the ShowingTime mobile app also gain access to tools for lockbox access, conducting live video showings and offering peace of mind for agents during showings.
