How Can I Track My Taxi Ride with TaxiHub?

Tracking your taxi ride is an essential feature that adds to the convenience and safety of your journey with TaxiHub. Whether you’re in a hurry or just want to stay updated on your driver’s location, TaxiHub’s real-time tracking feature ensures transparency and peace of mind. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to track your taxi ride using the TaxiHub app or website.

Booking Your Ride
Before you can track your taxi, you need to book a ride through the TaxiHub app or website. Once you’ve entered your pickup location and destination, selected your vehicle type and confirmed your booking, you’re ready to track your taxi.
Receive Ride Confirmation
After booking, you will receive a confirmation notification containing key details about your ride. This includes the driver’s name, vehicle information (such as the make, model, and license plate number), and the estimated arrival time (ETA). At this point, tracking automatically becomes available.
Access the Tracking Feature
Once your ride is confirmed, the real-time tracking feature will be activated. If you’re using the TaxiHub app, a map will appear on your screen showing the exact location of your taxi as it makes its way to your pickup point. If you’re on the TaxiHub website, a similar map will be displayed under your ride details.
View Your Driver’s Progress
On the map, you can watch the taxi’s movement in real time. You’ll see your current location as well as the location of your driver. The app continuously updates as the driver gets closer to your pickup point, showing you how far away they are and the estimated time of arrival (ETA). This feature is particularly helpful if you’re in a busy area and want to meet the taxi at the right time.
Receive Notifications
TaxiHub also sends notifications to keep you updated. You will receive alerts when:

Your driver is on the way to pick you up.
The taxi is about to arrive at your location.
Any delays occur that may impact your pickup time.
These notifications help ensure you don’t miss your ride and keep you informed if there are any changes to your driver’s arrival time.

Track During the Ride
Tracking doesn’t stop once you’re in the vehicle. During the ride, the app continues to show your location on the map, allowing you to see your route and make sure you’re headed in the right direction. You’ll also see the estimated time of arrival at your destination, helping you plan accordingly.
Share Your Ride with Others
For added safety, TaxiHub offers a “Share Your Ride” feature. You can send a link to your friends or family members that allows them to track your ride in real time as well. This feature is especially useful for night rides or when traveling in unfamiliar areas, ensuring someone else knows where you are.
Payment and Fare Tracking
At the end of your ride, the fare will be automatically calculated and deducted from your selected payment method. The app provides a detailed receipt, showing the distance traveled and the total time of the ride.
