AIRBNB has launched its first smartwatch application, exclusively for the Apple Watch, with features for both guests and renters.

The new app will feature a messaging service to help hosts and guests connect easily and quickly before, during and after a stay.

APPLE WATCH PROJECTED TO SELL 20 MILLION

Hosts with an Apple Watch will be able to receive new booking requests, including traveler name and photo, and requested dates, right on their wrists. They can also read and send messages as well as save pre-recorded responses to quickly communicate with guests.

Users with Passbook can still access Airbnb to receive reservation notifications or booking information.
