Stops-Based vs. Address-Based
Your service may work in two ways:
Stops-Based Service
You're assigned to a predefined stop:
- Common pickup point (like a metro station)
- Central location for efficiency
- Multiple employees use the same stop
Address-Based Service
The shuttle comes to your personal address:
- Your home location
- Individual pickup/drop-off
- Less common for personnel services
Checking Your Stop
Your assigned stop appears in the service details:
- Open the service
- Go to Shuttle Info tab
- Your stop location is shown
Pull to Refresh
To manually refresh the services list:
- Pull down on the list
- A loading indicator appears
- The list updates with the latest information
- Release when done
Services automatically refresh every 10 seconds.
Tapping on a Service
When you tap a service, you open the detailed tracking view:
- Map Tab - Live map with vehicle location
- Shuttle Info Tab - Driver and service details
See Personnel Tracking for details.
Shift-Based Services
If your company uses shift-based scheduling:
How Shift Services Work
- Your employer assigns you to a shift
- Services are created for that shift
- Your services list shows shift-relevant services
- When shifts change, your services may update
Multiple Shift Services
You may see:
- Services for your current shift
- Potentially services for multiple shifts if assigned
Shift Changes
When your shift changes:
- Services may update automatically
- You may receive a notification (if enabled)
- Check your services list for updates
When No Services Appear
If you see a message instead of services:
"You have not yet been assigned to a shuttle"
This means:
- Your employer hasn't added you to a service yet
- Your registration may be pending
- There may be a data issue
What To Do
- Contact your HR department
- Verify your phone number is registered correctly
- Use the contact information shown in the app
- Wait for your employer to complete the assignment
Service Visibility
What affects which services you see:
| Factor | Effect |
|---|---|
| Company assignment | Only see services for your company |
