The Hummingbird app can be used to reserve workstations and meeting spaces in your building. Employees have access to a variety of options, from a simple search to filtered floor plan and list views, allowing them to locate and reserve a space appropriate to their needs. 

Remember, your Administrator may have set up reservation rules and this will affect which spaces display in the search results. 

After you successfully sign in to the Hummingbird app you can create a new reservation. 

  1. From the Hummingbird home screen, tap the Make a Reservation button.
