Keep the next ride action close
The active ride leads Today
From En Route through On Scene and Passenger On Board, the active ride appears at the top of Today, above availability controls and New Booking. The trip, passenger details, and next ride action stay together where you can find them quickly.
Bring a newly active ride into view once
Today brings each newly active ride into view once. Routine refreshes and ride-stage changes preserve your scroll position, so you can continue reviewing the part of the screen you chose.
Less setup information during the ride
Current Vehicle is hidden while a ride is active and returns when the ride ends.
Availability reflects the work in progress
For companies using online availability, the Online card says Ride in progress during an active ride. Availability controls remain below the ride, with the existing restrictions on going offline still in place.
Show booking warnings when they need attention
No empty warnings button
Booking warnings appears only after unresolved warnings are found. It disappears when the last warning is marked reviewed, keeping bookings without warnings easier to scan.
Retry an interrupted warning check
If warnings cannot be checked, Retry warning check lets you try again. An unsuccessful check is not treated as confirmation that the booking has no warnings.
Pending reviews stay available
Review booking remains available for pending bookings even when there are no warnings. Drivers with the required dispatch access can still check the booking and its changes before making a review decision.
