Enhancements have also been made to the app over recent months, including improving its speed and improvements to the gallery in individual listings meaning floor plans, map and street view are more easily discoverable. App users can also get push notifications when their house price changes – boosting the number of return users to the app and those tracking the value of any UK property.
