    How can I Create an App Like


    Uber?
    Kumarkalyann Just now · 5 min read
    Those who live in large cosmopolitan cities with no busy traffic and no
    parking space refuse to own cars that are compatible with ride-share
    services such as Uber. The appeal for individual vehicle rides makes
    business people consider how to assemble an application like Uber and
    can effectively dispatch it in nearby business sectors or around the globe.

    Globally recognized companies have always been role models for those
    taking the first steps to success. So if you want to create an app like Uber,
    it is important to understand the company policies for technology and
    business processes.

    The following are some apps like Uber that offer the same
    services:

    a) Curb
    b) Easy Taxi.
    c) Lyft.
    d) Gett.
    e) Flywheel

    How does Uber work?

    Before developing an app like Uber, let’s understand step by step how
    the app works:
    a) First of all, the customer requests to travel through the app.
    b) The customer must enter the source and destination before boarding.
    c) Next, they need to select the car type and payment mode.
    d) The customer then confirms the location of the pickup/source.
    e) The app searches for drivers near you.
    f) The driver’s request is accepted or rejected. If a driver rejects the
    request, it is automatically transferred to another driver closest to your
    pickup location.
    g) At the end of the ride, the ride fee will be automatically deducted from
    your additional payment account (credit/debit cards, PayPal account, or
    previously saved wallet accounts). The rider can also choose to make a
    payment in cash.
    h) Before closing the app, the customer will rate the ride based on their
    experience. These ratings will further help other riders to make a better
    choice for their trip.

    To develop a robust application that is easy to use for drivers and riders,
    we need to include features and functionality that benefit users. The tech
    stock of some of Uber’s important functions is described below.

    Let’s understand the technical part of developing an app like Uber.

    It uses the Colocation Framework for iOS and the Google Location API on
    Android to determine the location of the device.
    Uber integrates Google Maps for iOS and Android platforms into their
    app. But it does not rely entirely on Google Maps, sometimes purchasing
    mapping technology teams to solve their logistics problems.

    Push notification and SMS

    Once the ride is booked, Uber notifies the rider on various occasions.
    Push notifications and SMS help track trader and driver trip status. Uber
    uses the Twilio telecommunications provider to send SMS, however, for
    iOS, the Apple Push Notification Service and Cloud Messaging (GCM) for
    Google are used for Android.

    Payment Integration

    To prevent human error, apps like Uber implement payment through


    cards and wallets. There are specific requirements that a company must
    meet when accepting a card/wallet payment. This is called PCI
    requirements.

    What are the basic features of an app like Uber?

    The Uber app is a combination of 3 different interfaces/applications —


    the driver app, the rider app, and the admin panel, which manage and
    monitor the performance of the app.

    Important features of the rider/passenger interface

    d) Ride Tracking
    e) Payment
    f) Messaging & Calling
    g) Driver Rating & Analysis
    h) Ride Cancellation

    Important features of the admin interface

    The admin panel is very important for the proper integration and
    smooth functioning of the system.

    Basic features and functions of the admin panel:

    a) Customer and Driver Profile Management (CRM)


    b) Booking Management
    c) Vehicle Detail Management (if self-owned)
    d) Location and Fares Management
    e) Ratings, Reviews, and Feedback
    f) Call System Management
    g) Communication
    h) Google Analytics Integration
    i) Payroll Management
    j) Content Management
    k) Customer Support and Help
    l) Discounts and promotions management

    Resources that are needed to build an application like Uber

    Taxi app development is impossible without a development team. You


    need an all-rounding team with an all-rounding strategy to successfully
    develop the app.

    Here is a list of people your team owns:

    a) Android app developer


    b) iOS app developer
    c) UI/UX designers
    d) Quality Assurance Analyst
    e) Backend developer
    f) Project Manager
    g) Business Analyst

    To get a better understanding of how to create an app like Uber,


    the following 5 sub-steps are very important for you to
    understand.

    1. Creating a trip request by clearly specifying the pickup and drop-off


    point for the drive.
    2. The next step is trip verification, where the user will confirm the
    pickup location and all other relevant data.
    3. Finding an Uber driver near a passenger. However, the driver has the
    option of rejecting the trip request, in which case it will be forwarded to
    the next nearest Uber driver.
    4.Users need to add digital payment methods before the Uber app,
    including credit card or debit card information. PayPal, Android Pay, and
    Apple Pay are other accepted payment methods.
    5. Uber’s app prioritizes the rating system and associates the score on
    each ride to create a driver’s digital record.

    The step-by-step development process for an application like Uber

    a) Requirement Analysis
    b) Documentation & Blueprint
    c) App Development
    d) Acceptance Testing
    e) Deployment
    f) Support & Maintenance

    Conclusion
    If you are wondering how to make an app like Uber, this article will show
    you the right direction. It also lists how other digital services can be
    accessed from Uber’s business model, especially from the partner
    economy. Some agendas of the article are given below.
    Below are some final tips for developers who want to start their
    cab-hailing services.

    a) Keep it simple and start with MVP.


    b) Do not start developing immediately.
    c) Start with a functional prototype first.
    d) Strategies to follow when creating an application like Uber.
    e) Special items and tech stocks needed for app creation
    f) Passenger app functionality for apps like admin panel, driver app, and
    Uber.
    g) How to develop an app like Uber and stick to the allotted budget.
    h) Established revenue streams for such taxi-healing applications.

    Keep in mind that your goal is not to create an app that fits the Uber app
    in all respects. Instead, you should introduce unique features and useful
    ideas that are not in Uber’s product.
