What's New in the Latest Version 6.3.0
Last updated on Sep 16, 2020
Old Versions
The latest version of this app includes new features designed to improve flexibility and transparency of price for our passengers. We're also introducing new tracking features that allows passengers to share the status and location of their taxi with their family and friends. Read below to learn more.
Parent Tracker & Taxi Tracker
With the new “Parent Tracker” feature, parents can register themselves in their children's account inside the app. This allows the parent to receive text message notifications any time their child books a taxi inside the app. The parent will be able to tap on a link in the text message to view the last known status and location of their child’s taxi.
You can also now use the "Taxi Track" feature to send friends or family members a text message which will allow them to see your taxi's last known location and status.
In App Payments
Passengers can also now split the payment between multiple app users. By using the split payment function users can send their friend a text message allowing them to pay for 1/2 of the fare with their registered credit card inside the app.
Finally, we've added the ability to pre-select a tip for your bookings. If you wish to always include a 15% tip for example, there are new options inside the settings menu in order manage your payment options and apply a 15% tip automatically at the end of a trip, making it easier for users to tip at the end of their trip. This can be done on metered trips or lock in fare bookings.
