It works pretty fine for my first few rides, but after that some bugs happened like my wait time reset(this happened a few times).

Early Notification of Arrival
May 4
Adara SK
App consistently sends “Driver has arrived” notification much too early - before driver has actually arrived and stopped at my location. Please fix so app sends arrival notification ONLY when driver has actually arrived and stopped. Students should not be penalized for getting in the vehicle “late” (long after arrival notification was sent) if the vehicle hasn’t arrived and stopped yet. The early notification is a consistent problem - please address this!The worst occurrence of this: wait-time (after I booked the ride) showed 22 minutes. Then suddenly it jumped to 5 minutes and then it said “Driver Arrived.” I had to run and was almost penalized for being late. PLEASE fix this so wait-time is updated in real time and arrival notification has been sent AFTER driver has stopped car at pick-up location!

Pretty helpful app, but need you to schedule only one ride at a time and no regular ones which is a bit inconvenient
