Hosting should fit into your life, not the other way around. Auto-Approval is an optional feature designed to help streamline stay requests, reduce back-and-forth messaging, and keep your hosting experience organized and stress-free.
With Auto-Approval, qualifying stay requests are approved instantly based on your preferences and availability. The system respects your calendar and will never overbook your location, helping you host with confidence while spending less time managing requests and more time focusing on what matters most.
