# Finding your way around

> The main tabs, the property switcher, search, and notifications.

Once you're signed in and have a property, the app opens to your tabs. Here's
what's on screen and how to move around.

## The main tabs

On a phone, the main tabs sit along the bottom of the screen. On a tablet or
larger screen, they move to a rail down the left side:

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Chats" icon="comments" href="/messaging/conversations">
    Conversations with guests, your team, and the AI assistant.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Guests" icon="users" href="/reservations/manage-guests">
    A searchable directory of everyone who's stayed or is booked in.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Tasks" icon="list-check" href="/tasks/manage-tasks">
    Things to do, by assignee or by date.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Calendar" icon="calendar" href="/reservations/calendar">
    Your reservations on a timeline, one row per unit.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

<Tip>
  Tap a tab again while you're deep in a screen to jump back to the top of that
  tab. On the Calendar, this snaps the timeline back to today.
</Tip>

If your property doesn't have a unit yet, **Chats**, **Tasks**, and **Calendar**
show a preview of what they'll look like once you're running, with a **Set up
your property** button. Tap **Skip for now** to dismiss it, or see [Set up your
property](/properties/set-up-your-property) for what the setup covers.

## The top bar

Across the top of the app you'll find:

* **Property switcher** (top left) — shows the property you're currently working
  in, or **All properties**. Tap it to switch property, filter by a teammate, or
  add a property. Everything in your tabs — chats, tasks, calendar, and
  notifications — is scoped to what's selected here.
* **Notifications** (bell) — opens an inbox of **Suggested actions** and
  **Activity**. See [Your notifications](/account/notifications-inbox) for
  what's inside, and [Notification settings](/account/notification-settings)
  for choosing which alerts you receive.
* **Search** — find guests, staff, reservations, and tasks from anywhere.
* **Your avatar** — opens your menu: **Account**, **Notification settings**,
  **Join property**, **Help** (these guides), **Contact support** (email the
  Superhost team), **Privacy policy**, **Terms of service**, and **Sign out**.

## Search

Search finds **guests**, **staff**, **reservations**, and **tasks** from
anywhere. Results respect the property scope you've selected, so you only see
matches from the properties you're currently working in.

Opening a result takes you straight to it:

* A **guest** or **staff** result opens their chat.
* A **reservation** result jumps to the **Calendar** and highlights it.

## Switching property scope

The property switcher controls what you see everywhere else. Open it to reveal
two lists: **Your properties** and **Staff**.

Under **Your properties**, choose a single property to focus on it, or **All
properties** to see everything together. Each property row also has a one-tap
**Only** shortcut that narrows straight to that property, and an **Add
property** row at the bottom. Your choice is remembered the next time you open
the app.

Under **Staff**, you can also narrow to a specific teammate's items. The
teammate list adapts to the properties you've selected, so it only shows people
who work at those properties. Each teammate row has its own **Only** shortcut.

When a teammate filter is active, a **Clear** button appears next to the
switcher. Tapping it removes the teammate filter but keeps your property scope,
so you stay in the same property and simply see everyone's items again.

## What you can see

Superhost uses four roles — Owner, Manager, Receptionist, and Operator — so two
people on the same property may see different buttons and screens. For example,
only some roles can reply to guests or change property settings. Where that
matters, each guide calls it out — and you can read the full breakdown under
[Roles & permissions](/team/roles-and-permissions).
