Getaway Inventory on Interval--how often should I be checking?

How often does Interval update Getaway availability? Is it as often as they update flexchange (within 60 day) availability, which is basically every second? I am just trying to figure out what searching (or rather checking) strategy to utilize if I am looking for a high demand week on Getaways. If I was looking for a high demand week via a flexchange, I would be checking Interval practically every moment, expecting the best availability to pop right before the travel dates, due to last minute cancellations. Any similar tips but for Getaways?? thanks!!

They have an app that sends Getaway alerts. You list the resorts and dates and it notifies you.People must use it because I had it set for Lakeshore Reserve and they sure disappeared fast.

Is it an App, or just one of the functions on the II website?

Does Getaway Inventory ever get moved to exchange?

I use the Getaway app ALOT while searching for units. I'll set it up even if I'm looking for an etrade. Some inventory II has sits on both getaway and exchange sides. I have been able to snag some nice last minute things this way.

It is a feature I have only seen on the app.

I use the iPhone and iPad app, it crashes a lot on the alerts and is not always very functional but still at least I get alerts if there is a match!
