Delivery, trucking and logistics app development

Drivers get their route and stops on their phone, customers follow the delivery live, and every drop is confirmed with a photo and signature your office can see straight away.

Delivery & Logistics App questions

Can customers track the driver live?

Yes. Customers get a link or use the app to see the driver on the map and the arrival time, and they're notified when the driver is close and when the delivery is complete.

Does it work for trucks and haulage as well as parcels?

Yes. Stops can be pickups, drops or full loads, with weights, pallet counts, vehicle checks and trip logs set for how your fleet works.

Can drivers scan barcodes?

Yes. The phone camera scans barcodes and QR codes at pickup and delivery, so every parcel is accounted for along the route.

How much does it cost?

Our app plans are $3,000 for a Starter App, $5,000 for a Business App with accounts and an admin panel, and $8,000 for an Advanced App with a separate staff app, tracking and payments. Each plan is a fixed, one-time price.

Do you build for iPhone as well as Android?

Yes. We build in Flutter, so one codebase gives you an Android app and an iPhone (iOS) app. Every plan includes publishing on Google Play and the Apple App Store under your own accounts.

Who owns the app and the code?

You do. The app is published under your own Google Play and Apple developer accounts, the backend runs in your own Firebase project, and you receive the full source code at handover.
