Q: What is the difference between Interval Mode and Refresh Mode for automatic searching? 

A: These two modes give you control over how the app finds gigs for you.

• Interval Mode: This mode checks for new gigs on a simple, fixed schedule that you set (e.g., every 3 minutes). It's reliable and predictable.

• Refresh Mode: This "smart" mode actively monitors the gig app's screen for changes or refresh indicators. It's designed to be more efficient and can often find gigs faster than a fixed interval.

Q: What is Notification Mode and how does it handle text message alerts? 

A: Notification Mode allows Hub Gig Reader to listen for incoming gig alerts from the specific apps you've selected, providing hands-free updates. This feature is also powerful enough to capture and read gig offers sent via standard text messages (SMS) from services that use this method.

Example Gig Offer via Text Message:

"Frayt: 2 items (1.2 mi). Pay: $14.50. Deliver to 123 Main St. HubVille"

Hub Gig Reader can read this message and announce the key details to you hands-free if it meets your criteria.  HGR will also open the message so you can act fast.
