Mobile vs. Desktop: What’s Different?

OwnerFi works seamlessly on both, but the experience is optimized for each.
FeatureMobileDesktop
Swiping✅ Optimized—fast thumb swiping⚠️ Works, but clicking is less intuitive
Property Comparisons⚠️ Limited to 2 at a time✅ Compare up to 4 side-by-side
Notifications✅ Push notifications (instant)✅ Email and browser notifications
Typing Notes⚠️ Slower on small keyboards✅ Full keyboard makes notes easier
Viewing Full Photo Galleries⚠️ Smaller screen, but still high-quality✅ Larger screen shows more detail
Best workflow: Use mobile for swiping and quick saves throughout the day. Use desktop for deep dives, comparisons, and finalizing your top picks.

​
Customizing Your Dashboard Experience

Your dashboard should feel like yours. Here’s how to make it work the way you think:
Prefer list view over grid view? Go to Settings > Display Preferences and choose your default layout.
If you’re searching multiple cities or neighborhoods, save each as a custom search and pin them to your dashboard for one-tap access.
Don’t want to see properties you’ve already passed? Toggle Hide Passed in Settings to keep your feed fresh.
Getting too many alerts? Go to Settings > Notifications and choose “Daily Digest” instead of instant notifications.
