Leave your mark, and see your stay at a glance

Not everything a guest surface needs to do is answering questions. This release was about giving guests something fun to do, and giving them one clear place to ask for help.

What shipped

• HOWI Doodle — a drawing game across several surfaces (chalkboard, postcard, whiteboard); submissions are reviewed by the host and approved ones can become guestbook entries
• Services overlay — one place for reporting an issue, sending a request, or contacting the host, instead of separate scattered entry points
• Today calendar strip — a swipeable 8-day view of the stay window, so guests can see where they are in their trip at a glance

Why it matters

A guest surface that's only useful when something's wrong gets ignored the rest of the time. Doodle and the calendar strip give guests a reason to open HOWI that isn't a problem to solve.
