COMMON QUESTIONS

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about developing custom logistics, delivery, and fleet mobile applications.

How does real-time GPS tracking work without draining driver batteries? +

We use motion-sensor-aware location polling (fused location providers). When the vehicle is stopped at a signal or dock, the app reduces GPS polling frequency automatically, resuming high-precision pings only when motion resumes.

Can drivers capture proof of delivery offline? +

Yes. Drivers can capture digital signatures, photos of parcels placed at doorsteps, and recipient names even in basement parking lots with zero signal. The app caches the POD locally and uploads it as soon as signal returns.

Can the system optimize route orders for multiple delivery stops? +

Yes. Our routing engine uses traveling salesperson algorithms (TSP) and live traffic APIs to reorder 10 to 50 daily drop stops into the most time- and fuel-efficient driving sequence.

Can we integrate with our existing ERP or TMS software? +

Yes. We build custom bi-directional REST APIs that sync consignments, customer details, tracking numbers, and delivery statuses directly with your existing Transport Management System.

How long does it take to develop a custom logistics app? +

A standard courier delivery or driver companion MVP app typically takes 7 to 9 weeks. Enterprise fleet telematics suites with dispatch dashboards take between 10 to 14 weeks.
