When jobs reach drivers by phone call or WhatsApp, dispatchers spend the day relaying addresses, drivers miss jobs, handoffs aren't recorded and payouts are worked out by hand at the end of the week. A driver app replaces that with one loop: go online, get the alert, follow the route, confirm the handoff, get paid.
We built Bhaada Buddy, the driver-partner app for the Bhaada cargo platform, live on Google Play and the App Store. It replaced an earlier Firebase-based flow where new orders reached drivers late or not at all.
What a driver app should do
- Availability: one switch to go online or offline.
- Instant job alerts: new orders pushed the moment they arrive, with details before accepting.
- Navigation: turn-by-turn directions built into the pickup and delivery flow.
- Verified handoffs: OTP confirmation at pickup and drop.
- Earnings: a wallet, an earnings ledger and payouts the driver can see.
