Moon Driver
App for Private Hire Drivers
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Mobile app for Private Hire Drivers licensed by the Edinburgh City Council.
Advantages:
* Fair commission to drivers
* Ordering a private hire car to several addresses.
* Instant calculation of the cost of the trip, mileage, and travel time.
* Convenient correction of the trip route.
* Different payment methods.
* The ability to order a private hire car of different classes.
* Rate passengers and add comments to the completed trip.
* Initial address of the trip is determined with the user's location.
* You can order a fare now or make a future booking.
* Your order history (allows you to repeat the trip or order a return fare).
* Multi-order (you can order a car for yourself and your friends at the same time).
* Order to another number (useful for those who do not have the opportunity to order independently)
* Modern ticket-chat system for easy communication with the support service.
* Dark or light app theme.
Reliable service will help you quickly and inexpensively get to the airport, train station, or around the city without unnecessary calls to the operator.
The city and all its most inaccessible streets, alleys, and houses became closer. Public transport doesn't always take you where a private hire car can.
The best way to evaluate the functionality, quality, simplicity, and usability of the app is to download it and order a fare right now!

We have updated the driver's profile to make it even more informative and convenient, and improved the sound notifications so that you don't miss any orders!
Please note:
- The profile now displays temporary rewards for branding level, reduced commissions, and VIP status, along with their validity periods. Detailed information can be viewed by navigating to the corresponding section;
- Sound notifications for new orders and auto-capture will now work even in the background when the app is minimized;
- When the app is active (in the foreground), system notifications for new orders and auto-capture are disabled to avoid overlapping sounds;
- After installing the app, the default settings enable optimal notifications for new orders. You can always change these in the app settings;
- Voice notification bugs have been fixed! Now all order notifications, including auto-capture orders and events like "Order Accepted" and "Order Canceled," are announced correctly;
- The bug with the fixed location has been resolved! Previously, the driver's fixed location was reset when a new order appeared on air. Now it switches to using GPS only after the order is accepted. Your location is now under control;
- Added the ability to enlarge the client's photo. Now, when you tap on the photo, it opens in full-screen mode for better identification.
1.8.3 10/09/2024
In this update, we have added chats between the driver and the client. Now you can communicate with the client through the chat directly in the app. If needed, you can call the client from the chat menu.
Please note:
— for convenient client search, chat features now include sending photos and geolocation, just like in familiar messengers;
— if necessary, you can always disable the chat with the client through the chat menu;
— chats in orders will gradually become available as clients update their app.

Also fixed:

1.7.5 07/06/2024
Meet new challenges with "Guaranteed Income", "Reduced Commission" and "VIP" rewards in this update! Now you have access to tasks not only with financial rewards, but also tasks that:
- will increase your priority;
- will allow you to work with a reduced commission or no commission at all (commission programs);
- allow you to be sure of the amount of earnings, and if the earnings are less, we will compensate the difference.
New tasks will be gradually available in the menu section "Loyalty Program" - "Tasks".

1.7.4 29/05/2024

Now, when you create a support request through the "Help" -> "Write a letter" section, your account information is automatically filled in in the body of the letter for quick identification and resolution of your questions.
We have also improved the navigation. Added:
- automatic map centering: now when you launch the application and use the Find My Location function, the map is automatically centered on your current location, making navigation easier;
- interactive control: automatic alignment is temporarily disabled when interacting with the map, such as scrolling or zooming, allowing you to freely explore other areas;
- easy re-centering: pressing the "Find Location" button again instantly returns you to your current location, even after restarting the application;
- optimized zoom: adjust the zoom level when using the location function to provide a better view.
1.7.1 29/04/2024
In the latest update, we have made significant improvements to the notification system to make it easier and more convenient for our drivers to use the app. Now, when a customer or operator cancels an order, you will receive a push notification accompanied by a sound alert informing you of the cancellation. For maximum transparency, we have also introduced modal windows that appear when you enter the app after receiving such a notification. These windows not only inform you about the order status but also indicate who exactly canceled the order – the customer or the operator.
We have also fixed an issue related to the display of new orders in the "Free Orders" section. Now, the order will open after receiving a push notification and clicking on it. We have also improved the update of the order list in case an order expires by time or is closed without a rating.
1.6.0 10/04/2024
In this update, we fixed errors with changing the order status, playing the sound of a new order and displaying the rules of use and user manual in the application.
We have also optimized the operation of the “Task Archive” section in the “Loyalty Program” and added the ability to change the appearance of the location icon in the map settings on the main screen.
1.5.0 29/03/2024
Fixes and performance improvements
1.4.0 26/03/2024
In this update, we've made significant improvements to the app:
1. Home Screen. Browse the map, customize map display modes (sectors, coefficients), get quick access to notifications, and reward tasks at the bottom of the screen. The list of all orders (live feed) is available in the "Free Orders" section.
2. Order Search. A new order search mode. "Auto" (enabled by default when going online) and "Filters". If you do not want to receive orders automatically, switch to the "Filters" search mode. In "Filters" mode, you can also set specific parameters for auto-search of orders. We have also heard your requests about limiting filters and are working on removing them.
3. Settings. You can customize the type of order notifications you receive, set the distance from you to the order or the total route distance. You can also set the address (start or end). For your convenience, we've added the order cost in the notifications and added the ability to test it with a "Test Notification" button.
4. Paid Waiting. We've simplified the process of enabling paid waiting for the client and removed all unnecessary steps. It's very simple: if you have the option to enable paid waiting, you will see the "Enable Paid Waiting" button. To end it, you just need to start the order, and at intermediate points, just start moving – the waiting will end automatically.
5. New Setting Option for Intermediate Points: We've added a setting for displaying sectors at intermediate points. Now, in addition to the start and end points, you can choose to have sectors displayed at intermediate stops as well.
6. Improved Display of Information About Cost and Payment Type in Orders, making the process of working with orders even clearer and more convenient. Based on your feedback and suggestions, we have made significant improvements in how information about the cost and type of payment in orders is displayed.
7. Improved Sorting of Orders in Live Feed: Now, at the top block of the live feed screen, next to the section title, a sorting icon has appeared. You can enable sorting of orders in the live feed according to your preferences.
We have also improved the overall stability of the app and took measures regarding the loading/updating information with a weak connection.
1.3.0 21/03/2024
In this update, we have improved the stability of the application and fixed some bugs, and also added a new sound for incoming auto-capture orders (you can change it in the application settings).
