Overview
Contacts in the Agent App allow you to access and manage people in your database while on the go. Contacts include buyers, sellers, landlords, tenants, and other relationships linked to your business.
The contact list in the app mirrors what you can see on the web (desktop) application, based on your user access and permissions. This ensures consistency between platforms and helps you stay up to date with contact activity, history, and related records.
Using contacts in the Agent App allows you to quickly communicate, update details, and manage follow‑up actions without needing to return to your desktop.
