Tips for Best Results

  • Always use valid email formatting and double-check for typos

  • If recipients don’t receive alerts, ask them to check their spam or promotions folder

  • For mobile access, everyone must use the same shared login tied to the primary email.

  • Share the app using your custom app invite link (embedded in every email by default) and all users can sign in with the primary/shared login. See "How to invite using the RealScout Agent App" for tips on this.
