Hi, @Matthew285 & @Maryam25 -
Here is the gist of the update from August:
1. It's mid-February and we have begun work to eliminate the need for Airbnb Guests
to install the August mobile app for access to Airbnb listings
2. The plan is to allow Airbnb Hosts to use the August keypad to grant access to guests
3. This will be automated. No extra steps required by Hosts except to pair the
keypad w/ listing in the beginning.
4. The feature is coming soon - best estimate from me is 4-6 weeks at this point.
We appreciate your patience and when the feature is ready, we will likely get the word out via channels like this and others related to Airbnb hosting.
[ Note: I'm happy to discuss this with you directly in more detail via phone or email. I see that I can message Maryam directly (and will do so), but that's because her name is less common and I see her profile icon in the initial list of potential recipients. For Matthew, there are many w/ that name. ]
