Main features of the project

After the planning stage, our developers started working on the platform.

Event-driven tracking and communication system

Users are able to see in a real-time all available cars on the map in some certain radius around users’ current location. After settling for the ride with a particular driver, the rider can track the movement of the driver’s car on the map. Besides, users receive timely notifications about the events.

Sophisticated filtering system

When integrating a filtering system for the app, we decided to shift away from standard algorithms as they couldn’t meet the client’s specific requirements. So we worked out new algorithms that made filtering suggestions directly influenced by rider’s in-app settings. Thus our filters are customized to any specific case.

Dealing with financial operations

The integration with Stripe allows for peer-to-peer transactions between drivers and passengers. Apart from that, there is an opportunity to charge a fee for canceled rides and donate to the development of the platform.

I was at first worried about doing business with developers in another country as I am based in the UK, but I had spoken to a guy from Androswift called Kalpesh, who assured me that using Androswift for all my development work would not be a risk at all and they have proven me right.
