Client Requirement

The Client from Australia approached Hyperlink Infosystem to make an Android and iOS app for the people living in Australia. A Client wanted an app that helps people to pick taxi On-Demand and ride their destination in short time. Due to busy office schedule and traffic at the road, a client found difficulty to ride vehicle and reach the destination at a proper time. He realized that there are several people who faced the same difficulty to reach their destination. This raised the idea of app development that makes it easy and fast for people to get a taxi and book trusted as well as skilled drivers through their smartphone.

The Challenges

Our team had to face different development and design challenges during the process like a limited period for development. The client required to launch it for people as early as possible.
Cost Estimation By Distance:

In reality, we cannot simply consider the starting and end point to estimate the fair. But, we must track the actual route taken by the driver and then calculate the exact amount considering distance. And after we did GPS and Google Map to find the accurate distance.

Animation

Our developers faced one big challenge and that is Animation. If passenger looking for any ride and if any car is available either taxi, economy, business or any other in nearby location, a popup will notify the user and he/she can easily pick the car. For client need, our developers applied some logic on web services and done this easily by using their programming knowledge.

User-Friendly interface:

In this competitive era, an user-experience is the must and for the same purpose client need an app with a user-friendly interface. It has a simple design and easy to complete booking process in few clicks. For that our designer made attractive design and developers made it responsive same as per clients need.

Dynamically Display Other Car:

User prefer taxi at their pick up location may be its X location and they need future ride car same for a drop up location and may be its Y location and if the same car will not free then the dynamically economy, business or another car will display to select.
