In addition to the updated Wi-Fi experience, the app has new enhancements including a new lock screen widget feature on iOS. Widgets allow guests to see their points balance and upcoming stays from the lock screen of their device, and to quickly launch the app.

The app has also recently launched booking features allowing guests to select room enhancements during booking, including rooms with specific views or more space.
