Types of Logistics Apps Being Built Today

There are different logistics tasks your business may face daily. They are referred not only to transport monitoring routine but involve lots of additional processes – warehousing, supply chain management, and various map-based services. Logistics mobile app development can offer the following solutions.

- On-demand apps

This type of logistics applications can be adapted to a number of niches today – rental, taxi, and even health services. Almost every company is increasing its online presence and looking for smooth management of all processes. On-demand apps can be built based on the unique requirements of each business, automating everyday workloads.

- Warehouse apps

The rapid development of e-commerce has fundamentally changed the concept of a warehouse. Today it is a new type of distribution system with a big center that arranges fast deliveries to a number of destinations. Digital solutions will efficiently control deliveries, shipments, and goods availability in your warehouse.

- Route optimization apps

A vital task of each company that provides transport services is to find the most time- and cost-effective route for each order. Route optimization software uses real-time data from GPS devices, bringing idle time to zero and minimizing delivery costs.

- Tracking and monitoring apps

No modern transportation company or delivery service can exist without an advanced tracking app. The ability to track the driver’s whereabouts or the exact location of your order immediately boosts business performance and customer satisfaction.

- Fleet management apps

These programs are no less important than tracking ones. This type of app efficiently controls each vehicle's wear and tear, boosting your fleet's overall performance.

This is only a part of transport and logistics app development ideas. CookieDev technology allows us to successfully build unique management projects that combine several types of logistics apps. Goods transport app development can favorably transform any business.

Logistics app development is a complicated process that requires deep analysis of a particular business. CookieDev will add a lot of secondary functions to each product to make your everyday routine as smooth as possible.

Tracking on map

Problem? Position objects on the map and track their location

Solution! Integrate one of available map solutions (Google Maps, Apple Maps, MapBox, Openstreed Map) based on project specifications.

Navigation

Problem? Need to route users to specific location and customize their navigation experience

Solution! Turn-by-turn navigation with MapBox SDK or general route details from any other vendor like Apple or Google

Pay by time or distance

Problem? Business model depends on time or distance

Solution! Based on coordinates calculate distance, speed and acceleration. No map integration is needed for this, done by device sensors

Notifications

Problem? Need to keep up communications with users

Solution! Push notifications about important updates based on app related events or pre-defined factors. Good practise to include Firebase Cloud Messaging

Geo-fencing

Problem? Logic is based on a predefined geographical area

Solution! Based on coordinates apps can calculate if they are within the poligon for geo-fencing features. No map integration is required.
