The Livery Coach Affiliate Portal app is designed for use by transportation affiliates of those transportation companies running the Livery Coach system. When a trip is assigned to an affiliate by a Livery Coach customer, the chauffeur can use the app to log in and security see details of the trip, and change the status of the trip (Dispatched, On the Way, Arrived, Customer in Car, Done) so that the status is provided back through the system in real time to the Livery Coach customer (and ultimately their customer). The app also uses the GPS function in the device to provide real-time location information of the vehicle back through the system for presentation to both the Livery Coach customer and the passenger. Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
