After the start of a new trip, it waits for a given number of seconds before activating an alternative calculation method. It will then apply the Waiting mode tariff and will increase the meter amount pro rata at a given time frequency. If you don’t like that, we can configure your tariff to apply a […]
For the calculation of the fare: NO. You can perfectly start a trip and complete the whole trip process till the end without Internet connection. For backend services, like upload of trip data to the server: YES, but if there is no Internet connection, app will try to connect regularly. A driver login and logout […]
At a loss of GPS signal situation, the app uses the tariff’s waiting mode setup in order to accrue the fare. When the signal returns, it calculates the distance between GPS loss and the new signal. It compares then the temporarily calculated value with the newly calculated value and takes the higher of both. In […]
The app is either using GPS signals or OBD data for its calculations. Please check our section related to OBD
We support both iOS (9.0 or higher) and Android (4.4 or higher). We have decided to focus primarily on Android. The reason is quite simple: taxi drivers are preferring the less expense Android smartphones and tablets. We see that more than 80% of our users are using Android devices. On some Android devices, the GPS […]
OBD: With OBD data, we get a distance calculation accuracy that is the closest possible to the distance measured by the car’s odometer. GPS: You need to be aware that GPS-based and classical meters can, by the nature of physics, never calculate the same distance for the same trip. Why is that? Classical meters measure […]
It really depends on where you use it. In the European Union, using a smartphone/tablet for the calculation of the fare is not allowed, and the hurdles to get an app approved for this functionality are purpously unsurmountable. Noone has dared trying it, but some well-known peer-to-peer ride-sharing platform ignores the law and has such […]
There is a number of reasons: Functional richness Our app is, by very far, the functionally richest taximeter app available. We manage all possible scenarios, including abnormal termination of the app by Android or iOS. Take a look at the impressive long list in our ‘Features’ section. Precision in all circumstances Developing a taximeter app […]
