- We'll show you if you go offline in the wish list feature. Which means no more frustration when your wish list changes aren't saved (you need to be online to edit your wish lists).

- We fixed the bug that was stopping you from extending your search radius from your original search. You can view places to stay that are a little further out from your original search (scroll down to the bottom of the search results list to find these options).
