ShiftDriver1 / 4
Driver App

Inside the app
What it does out of the box
22 connected functions on one schema across 1 user type. Everything below is in the template before a line of customisation.
Shift
Vehicle check before the wheels turn, the round summary and hours remaining. The check is recorded because somebody will eventually ask whether it happened.
Round
Every drop in sequence with address, access notes and distance. One screen, large targets, no nested menus.
Navigation
Handoff to whichever maps app the driver already uses. Building our own would be expensive and worse.
Proof at the door
Photo, signature or handed-to-name, captured offline. A delivery with no proof is a delivery you will end up paying for twice.
Failures with a reason
Recorded at the door, not guessed at the depot. That is the only version of the reason worth having.
Offline throughout
The round lives on the device and syncs when signal returns. Basements, lifts and rural dead spots are the normal case, not the exception.
User types
One user type, on purpose.
A driver app that also tries to be a dispatch console is a driver app nobody can use at a door in the rain. Dispatch is Order Tracking; this is the round.
Driver, the only user
One user, one round, one screen. Everything a driver needs between the van and the door, and nothing else competing for attention while they are holding a parcel.
- The round in sequence, on one screen
- Navigation handoff per drop
- Proof of delivery: photo, signature or note
- A reason recorded when a drop fails
- Works entirely offline and syncs after
The limits
What this is not.
The same list we give for every app in the catalogue, because the fastest way to a bad project is a promise made in a meeting that nobody wrote down.
It is not route optimisation
Drops are sequenced as dispatch sets them. Full multi-vehicle optimisation at scale is a specialist engine we integrate rather than reinvent.
It is not a dispatch console
Assigning and reassigning work belongs to Order Tracking. This app deliberately shows one round.
We do not licence your operation
Operator licensing, driver hours, tachograph and dangerous goods rules where you run remain yours. We build to the rules you confirm apply.
Location tracking is a scoping decision
Continuous tracking has real driver-privacy and employment implications. It is a conversation, not a default.
Questions
Questions, answered plainly.
If yours is not here, ask it on the call rather than guessing from a pricing page.
Does it work with no signal?
Yes, and that is the point rather than a feature. The round is held on the device, proof is captured offline and everything syncs when the connection returns.
Does it track the driver continuously?
Only if you decide it should. Continuous location has genuine privacy and employment implications, so it is scoped explicitly rather than switched on by default.
How does it relate to Fleet & Transport?
Fleet & Transport is the internal system: vehicles, maintenance, compliance and cost per mile. This is what the driver holds. They complement each other and can share a database.
Can it take photos as proof?
Photo, signature or handed-to-name, per drop, configurable by service level. Photos are stored against the drop rather than in a camera roll.
Do I get the source code?
Yes, on the same terms as every app here. No licence key and nothing that calls home.
