Edited by Freya, Alexander Avdeev, Eng
Hello! You're watching VisiHow. This is a tutorial on how to filter the search results in the Booking.com application on the iPhone 6.
Steps
- 1To start, we should unlock our phone, which we can do by pressing the big Lock button on the right-hand side of the handset.
- 2This brings up the Lock screen.Alternatively, we can press the round Home button at the bottom of the phone.
- 3We can then swipe right.
- 4This will take us to the Home screen. Everything is personalized in this example, so the Home screen may look a bit different than others.Enter a passcode or just hold a finger onto the Home button at the bottom, which doubles as a fingerprint scanner.
- 5It is in the "Travel" folder in this example. The icon itself is dark blue with a big capital white "B" and a small lighter blue circle next to it.We should now find the Booking.com application tile.
- 6This is the first screen that we will be presented with in the Booking.com application because it immediately allows us to search for a place. We can search for another VisiHow video to be taken through the process to search for a place.We'll just tap the Booking.com icon once to bring up the main screen.
- 7In this example, we are looking at hotels in London, as it was previously selected as a location. If we do not like the results, and we want to be more specific, then we can use the bottom bar where we have three options. There are two large rectangles and a small square in the right corner.For now, we'll tap the "Show hotels" button with a number to go straight through to our search results.
- 8This will bring up a new window. Now, we have the option to choose exactly what we would our hotel to be like. The Booking.com application seems to have a lot more options than most other booking applications. Therefore, choosing filters is quite a long process.We are going to tap the second option called "Filter" in the light blue bar at the bottom.
- 9By default, it is set to "Any stars". The check on the right-hand side in blue means that we have all of the results. The application also tells us on the left-hand side underneath "Any stars" how many results we will have. In this example, the "1 star" option only has 5 results, whereas "4 stars" has 97 results.For example, we can tap "Select stars".
- 10A blue check will appear.Let's tap "4 stars".
- 11Let's tap "3 stars".We can choose more than one option as well if desired.
- 12We can tap "Filters" in the top-left corner if we want to change more things.
- 13The application will start searching again with our new filter.Alternatively, we can tap "Show results" if that option was the only thing that we wanted to change.
- 14The application will show what we selected underneath "Select stars".Let's tap "Filters" to go to "Filters".
- 15We can tap "Select price range".
- 16The price tends to increase or decrease in tens. The maximum price is ÃÂã2,999 for two guests in this example. We can change the price to the one that suits us.We can tap and change the scroll sliders.
- 17Again, we can tap "Show results" at the bottom if we are happy with everything in the filters.
- 18Alternatively, we can tap "Filters" in the top-left corner to get back to the "Filters" screen.
- 19Again, we select everything as we did with the star rating.Now, we can tap "Select hotel type".
- 20We change where the blue check goes.We can tap "Hotel" if we want just a hotel.
- 21Let's tap "Filters" to go back to "Filters".
- 22Those are all sort of things the hotels have to offer that are more practical. There are various blue icons on the right-hand side that display what the option is. We have an "Airport shuttle" with a picture of an airplane. We have "Free WiFi" with the WiFi symbol of three arched bars. We have "Non-smoking rooms" with a picture of a cigarette, as well as "Restaurant" with a knife and fork icon, and so on.We can tap "Select facilities".
- 23A blue check will appear next to the "Family rooms" icon.What we definitely need to know is that if we go with children, we may want to tap "Family rooms".
- 24There will be a blue check added.If we want WiFi, we should tap "Free WiFi".
- 25This will add a blue check.If we want parking, we tap "Parking".
- 26We can continue choosing any of the filters we wish.
- 27Then, we can go back to "Filters" by tapping "Filters" on the left-hand side.
- 28This is the area in which we would like to be. It is quite limited in this example, as we have already put in some other filters. Judging by the other filters, the application tells us that there aren't any hotels in Covent Garden that match what we want so far. There is one in Fulham, one in Hampstead, and one in Kings Cross St. Pancras.We can tap "Select district".
- 29That is one result. Now, there is only one result, and if we are going to add more filters now, it will not make any difference because that one hotel is all from what we are choosing.For example, let's tap "Shepherds Bush".
- 30Let's tap "Select district" again.
- 31Let's tap "Any district" for now.
- 32That is how other people are reviewing the hotel.We are going to tap "Select review score".
- 33We can tap and drag the slider bar to drag the dot and choose the minimum score.
- 34The slider will have no blue line.We can drag the slider to "Any review score".
- 35We can select the minimum score of 8.
- 36Let's select 6.6.
- 37The filter list is quite extensive, so we should be able to find exactly what we want by doing the filter process.We tap "Filters" in the top-left corner for "Filters" again.
- 38Maybe our flight comes at a difficult time, and we want to make sure that we can check in.We can tap "Check-in time".
- 39We just move the blue bar accordingly.Let's drag the slider to the "Check-in from 3 pm to midnight" position.
- 40We can see all of the things that we've selected are coming up underneath the title on the left-hand side.Let's tap "Filters" to go back to "Filters".
- 41A window pops up that says that there are no hotel matches.Let's tap "Pets allowed".
- 42This will not take us to a new window because we tapped "Yes" to the message telling us about no hotels available.We can just tap "Yes" for now so that the green check appears on the right-hand side across from the "Pets allowed" option.
- 43We can just tap "Pets allowed" again to remove the check and not allow pets, if desired.
- 44It has a circle icon next to it, which will fill in green if we select the filter.We can tap on "Facilities for disabled guests".
- 45"Free WiFi" has already been selected by us. Many people want free WiFi. We can tap it to get rid of it.We can tap "Facilities for disabled guests" again to get rid of the check for now.
- 46The application will list things like "Family", "Adventure", "Castle", "Budget / backpacker", etc. We'll leave it at "Any theme".We can tap "Hotel theme".
- 47We tap "Filters" to go back.
- 48Finally, we can tap "No credit card required" option to select it.
- 49We'll tap "Yes" to close the warning window.
- 50It will mean that we should pay by our credit card.We can tap "No credit card required" again to remove the check.
- 51When we are happy with the filters in this section, we can simply tap "Show results".
- 52Alternatively, we can tap "Reset all filters" if we accidentally did something, and we want to start from the beginning again.
- 53In this example, the choice is not big. We have about 19 hotels. The application managed to find something even with very specific filters.Let's just tap "Show results" in the bottom blue bar for now.
- 54We can scroll through the results to choose the one that suits us.
- 55We can tap the white arrow in the top-left corner to go back to the main menu.
- 56We are back to the main search screen.Tap the white arrow in the top-left corner again to go back to the main menu.
