Taxi Booking App Development

Louis Smirf

/ Design Leader – Aqua Group
Globe tech soft develops a Taxi Booking app is one of the best on-demand taxi apps that help customers to benefit fast and comfortable rides within minutes. It won’t take much time to avail of their first ride with a smooth signup process and uncluttered UI. The user needs to set pickup, and drop-off location, select car type from available options, and then the user will get ride confirmation within a few seconds. Once the trip ends, the customer will get a payment invoice and pay the fare by cash or card. An app allows tracking driver’s location, getting fare estimation, and tracking ride history conveniently. Customers can book ride for immediate use or later. If the user is lucky enough, they can get a free or discounted ride using discount code. The best part of this app is that it’s not necessary to enter drop off location, its optional, so whenever the customer wants to stop the ride, they can do it. The amount will be calculated according to the distance of the drop off location. If a customer paid extra, they would get discounted from the next trip, and in case the customer paid less than the actual amount will be added to the next trip. Sandra taxi app contains two apps; one is for the customer, and the second is for drivers. Drivers need to register through an app by providing required documents, and if a driver wants to train by any experts, then he/she can register for it.
