Allow to have sound notification for inbox tab
On web browsers, It's difficult for us to keep up with new messages since we don't get notified when we receive them. It would be helpful if we could get a sound or push notification even to aware about the message.

Select the most recent reservation to send messages to Vrbo Inbox for returning guests
it is a design choice, we do not match threads with reservation but guests, and not direct relation to leads. But as an improvement we may select the most recent reservation to send message

Allow user to make multiple selections per Inbox filter
We have different departments that handle guest messages at different points in time throughout a guests' "stay". For example:
- Reservation Specialist handles messages and booking modifications prior to a guests' stay.
- House Manager handles messages from guests in-stay
- Vacation Designer handles messages from booked guests and in-stay guestsThe inbox should allow the user to make multiple selections in the status and channel filters so that they can focus on the messages that apply to their work. These filters should save until the user changes them (use "apply filter" and "clear filter" logic, similar to the calendar)

Keep old Vrbo thread even changing email address
At the moment, for Vrbo bookings, when changing the email address, it generates a brand new thread without any past conversations, making it hard to track past information. We'd like to keep the old Vrbo thread on Hostfully inbox, even when the guest email was changed

Add a new "contact" filter in Inbox page
Currently, the Property managers (PM) can see all conversations: PM <> Guest, PM <> Owner, PM <> Service Provider.
However, there's no "Contact" filter in the Inbox to help direct us to the correct threads among PM and Owner, Service Provider.1 vote -
Inbox Easier View / Navigation
Inbox > Toggle guest names on left - when you reach the bottom of the list - you need to scroll up to check the messages.
My suggestion is - that the list of guest names should have a separate column for browsing up and down and not the page itself. This will give the user an easier view of the new messages or the topmost messages of each guest

Ability to add a chatbot to inbox
Ability to add a chatbot that would intercept messages from guest and offer them immediate responses to their inquires 24 hours a day which would vastly increase customer service and response time taking pressure off the host to be under the gun responding to guest.

Describe reasons for errors when messages fail in the Inbox
It looks like we had an Airbnb message that may have errored because the word "google" was in the message and it was not yet a confirmed reservation. The error message would be more helpful if it describes what the problem is.

Have Booking.com message with early checkin request supported in Hostfully inbox
I would like to have the message with early checkin request from Booking.com guests showing up in Hostfully inbox so I can manage them in one place. Currently, it shows in Booking.com inbox, but Hostfully inbox.
There is an original message from the guest, and that does not appear in the Inbox. It seems like it may be related to a special request (about an early check in)
"I'd like to request check-in at x - x (checkin date). Is it ok?"

Display template picker in Inbox for Vrbo inquiries
When I receive a Vrbo inquiry, it shows in Inbox as a guest message, which is not linked to any lead (since no checkin/checkout dates are provided) - that's by design. I want the template picker in Inbox to display in this user case so that I can pick any templates and communicate with guests.

Display the error message more clear so it's understandable.
When I accepted Airbnb booking request from Inbox, the lead status in Hostfully did not change. So I tried to accept it again and got the error message "AxiosError: Request failed with status code 400".
After checking with Support, we figured out it's because payment was pending from guest.
So if the message is made more clear for future errors, it would be more understandable and helpful.

Inbox should record all messages sent to guests
System template “Rental Agreement Notification” was sent automatically from email platform.hostfully but did not record in Inbox. Then guest replied to that message and it did not go to Inbox neither.
We are depending more and more on communicating via the Hostfully Inbox. But if automated send templates are not in there it’s hard to keep track in the communication thread.

Ability to customize sender name for messages
The emails for vrbo for every listing say the sender name is the company name and I think this is adding confusion for travelers. We want to change the sender name for certain properties or templates

Automatically translate messages send through inbox
Airbnb does automatic translation but I was just trying to do as much of my messaging and tasks through Hostfully as I can instead of having to go back and forth! I’ve been just responding through Airbnb so it would automatically translate what I’m texting instead of having to go through Google translate

Import Airbnb messages only when a property is turned "on" in Airbnb Channel
Right now Airbnb messages are coming in sometimes when a property manager imports a property from Airbnb, even if they have not turned that property to “on” in the Airbnb channel.
Another case is that, when a PM connects to an Airbnb account but only imports and manages one, not all, listings in that account. Nevertheless, Airbnb messages from other listings not managed by them show up in Inbox without property and reservation details.
We would like for Airbnb messages to only start appearing in the Inbox when the property managers goes to Channels / Airbnb and turns “on” that…

Option to automatically add signature to messages sent through the inbox
For all of my messages to a guest, it would be really nice for my signature below to automatically populate. I am able to add a signature area to all of my templates, but it's not an option from the inbox. I think it looks way more professional than just a short response that comes across more like a text message.

Open message thread in new window
From the various lead views, we can view the message thread, but there is no way to open this in a new window.
the standard convention is "control-click" on a button will open in a new window but this doesn't work witht he UI widgets employed.
It's very annoying to have to go to the inbox view then click the browser back button to get back to the calendar or dashboard or pipeline view and then wait for those screens to refresh again.
If you insist on disabling the standard browser built in control-click either make these open in a…
