world's largest vacation exchange network, today debuted a new
mobile app, designed to make booking vacations easier and faster
than ever before for RCI's 3.8 million members worldwide.
Featuring desktop functionality built natively for mobile use,
the new app blends modern technology and secure access to provide
RCI members with the ability to easily exchange their timeshare at
more than 4,300 affiliated resorts in 110 countries, with just a
few taps on their phone or tablet screens.
The app's refreshed design offers intuitive navigation and an
enhanced user interface that supports many new features including
responsive search results, a new calendar layout with optimized
