Developing an On-demand fuel delivery mobile application is the initial step for ensuring seamless fuel delivery. This is because, it is through the app that customers can raise the fuel delivery request, with location, while the delivery tankers can track down the customer using the mobile application.
How does it work?
The on-demand fuel delivery works pretty much like all other conventional on-demand delivery apps. Customers need to register themselves in the app and request for fuel delivery services using their current location using GPS or set the location manually. The driver of the fuel tanker gets the notification of the on-demand order placed for fuel, with the location, and drives to the location to fill up the customer’s fuel tanks.
Fuel Delivery Mobile app development
Since the entire system of fuel delivery app runs on real-time location sharing, GPS alone might not be sufficient enough to support the system. Integration of iBeacon, IoT devices are also essential for ensuring uninterrupted services. IoT devices have the potential to gather necessary information and multi-faced reports and analytics essential for on-demand fuel delivery mobile application.
