Managing Inquiries on a Cell Phone or iPad Screen 

Yes! You can answer your FLARBO inquiries directly from your mobile phone or iPad. This makes hosting from anywhere in the world a snap.

In your Host Dashboard:

  • Click the Inquiries tab
  • There is a rectangle section on the phone that contains the inquiries list
  • Rotate your phone to see the full list better in a horizontal point of view


On the inquiries list:

  • Place your finger on the screen (inside that list box) and scroll right to see the pink Inquiry Details button
  • Press the Inquiry Details button to see the message details and respond to the traveler inside your dashboard

Answering Inquiries

Once you click on the Inquiry Details button the message content will pop up. Here you can answer the inquiry within the dashboard or take the email address and traveler details and answer in your own PMS or business email address. The choice is up to you! We feel our hosts know the best way to convert and inquiry to a booking.
