Until now, the only way to find out that a client had booked a slot, signed the agreement, or paid was to open your email or the web app. The app now has its own Notifications tab, and it can alert your phone the moment something happens. The app has been reorganized around a bottom tab bar — Inspections, Notifications, and a new Account tab that gathers up the settings that used to hide behind the profile icon. The Notifications tab shows everything the web bell shows: booking requests, agreement signatures, payments received and failed, and organization invitations, which you can accept or decline right there. Tapping a notification opens the inspection it belongs to. The first time you open the tab, the app asks whether you'd like push notifications; say yes and your phone will alert you as things happen, even when the app is closed. You choose which kinds are worth interrupting you for — booking requests, agreement signatures, payments, and organization updates each have their own switch, in Account on your phone or under Settings → Notifications on the web. The same update closes a gap at the other end, too: the app has always let you start an inspection in seconds on site — just the address and a template — but back at the desk those inspections looked like any other, and the web app wouldn't let you publish their reports without explaining why. They're now clearly marked with a grey Draft badge, and a short guided flow on the web walks you through the clients, the buyer's agent, the fee, and everything else the on-site form skipped, pre-filled from the defaults in your settings. If you'd rather not be alerted at all, the Notifications tab and the Draft flow both keep working either way.
