Find an up-to-date list of integrations [here.](https://support.holidayhero.com/integrations/smart-devices) ### Guest Journey / Public Pages With HolidayHero's laser focus on guest experience and guest journey we allow operators to select when Smart devices should become visible in the guest journey. Within [reservation stages](https://support.holidayhero.com/the-basics/brands/reservation-stages) you are able to control when you want to display the smart devices in the guest app. #### Public Pages At HolidayHero we allow public reservation stages. Smart devices are not able to be used within the public reservation stage. As these pages are `public`and accessible before/after the reservation, we don't allow the use of the Smart Devices. *** ### Frequently Asked Questions
