The Driver App went through multiple bug fixes that will improve the driver’s experience with the app. We’ve updated the GeoGate feature - now nearby places are displayed more precisely. It is also now possible for the drivers to see orders from outside their search radius. We’ve updated the feature that allows split payments to make it more convenient for the drivers. The UI was also updated to make the user experience smoother.
