The purpose of this project is to specify software requirements of the Real-time and Autonome Online Moto-Taxi / Taxi Booking in Cameroon (Central Africa ) or in specificaly in regions where urban transport is not properly structured or is done mainly with motorcycle taxi (Sud-Asia, Africa or Sud-America).

this Solution is an on-demand taxi booking software that helps expand business reach by providing taxi services to customers anytime. Any services like taxi booking, carpooling, taxi renting, car sharing, etc., are all managed within the platform.thiss software is a ride-hailing app solution that allows a company to launch its taxi-booking support online. It supports customers to find rides at their convenience and helps the drivers earn by completing the trips that users have requested.

this platform is built with native Android with the required functions and latest features for riders convenience. Prospering the freakishly growing taxi booking industry becomes super easy. The solution aims to connect the business with the customers seamlessly.

How It Works

Start The App

For This Project, I created Two Different Apps. The Client App and The Driver App. After creating An Account, Adding A Phone Number, Your Location Is Automatically detected via the google maps geolocation, But You Could Point The Marker Elsewhere To Choose Another Location.

Request A Taxi

When A User Books A ride, Then User's Details Are Sent To The Database With The Notification Id Of The First Driver Available, Then After 60 seconds And No reply, Then it is shifted To Another driver.

Get Accepted By A Driver

Once You Get A Driver Then Your Phone Vibrates And The Credentials Of The Driver Appears on Your Screen, As well as The Distance Between You And Your Driver Are Displayed As well.

Get To Your Destination And Pay Up

On Completion Of the ride your payment reciept is shown to you, then you can check out and rate your ride and then, you are ready for another booking.
