Just like on the website, you can save searches on the iOS app. This search will pull up results based on the criteria you set, and send you notifications when a project or role is posted that fits that criteria.
Below we'll show you how to set filters, select notification settings, and save the search for easy perusal in the future.
Creating a Saved Search
Creating a new saved search on our iOS app is easy!
First, tap on the 'Jobs' icon in the bottom navigation bar to bring up the Casting Calls tab. Then tap on 'Filter Results' at the top of the screen to pull up your filter options.
Once there, you will see all of the filters you can use to narrow down the results to what you are interested in.
Tap on a filter to make a selection. Apply as few or as many filters as you desire. Be sure to scroll down the page to see the full range of options, as there are many!
Once you're done selecting, tap on 'Save search' at the bottom left-hand corner of the screen.
Name the search and select your notification preferences before tapping the 'Save' button on either the bottom of the page or at the top right-hand corner of the screen. Both buttons accomplish the same thing - saving your search!
Once you've successfully saved your new search, you'll see that the filters are automatically applied, along with a 'Search results updated' pop-up confirmation message.
You'll also see it shows the name of your new saved search (in this example, 'Los Angeles').
Viewing and Activating Your Saved Searches
You can view and activate your saved searches on the app by tapping on the heart icon at the top left corner of the screen.
You'll see the list of all of your saved searches.
Simply tap on the title of whichever search you are interested in activating, and it will immediately apply those filters to the list of casting calls.
You will then see a pop-up message stating 'Search results updated', as well as the name of the saved search above the search results (In this example, the saved search name is 'NY')
Removing Saved Search filters
If you've activated a saved search and want to remove the saved search filters you've selected, simply tap on the 'Filter results' button.
Tap on the Clear' button at the top right hand of the screen, and then tap on 'View results' at the bottom to clear the results.
Deleting Saved Searches
If you want to permanently delete any of your saved searches, tap on the heart icon to navigate to your Saved Searches.
Tap 'Edit' and then tap on the name of the search you want to delete.
Tap on the 'Delete saved search' button at the bottom of the screen to permanently delete your saved search.
Notifications Settings
You'll want to set the proper notification settings so that you will be alerted when a casting notice is posted on the platform that fits your selected criteria. You can receive both email notifications and push notifications.
Email notifications will send a message to the personal email address that you signed up with, whereas push notifications will send a pop-up alert directly to your phone. You can opt to receive notifications either immediately (as new casting listings come in), in digest form once a day, or in digest form once a week.
Editing Notification Frequency
If you want to change the frequency of your saved search notifications, tap on the heart icon to navigate to your Saved Searches.
Tap 'Edit' at the left-hand corner of the screen, and then tap on the name of the search you want to update the notification settings for.
Make your changes and then tap on the 'Save' button.
You'll see a 'Search updated' pop-up confirmation message.
Tap 'Done' to finalize your changes.
