First, you will have to start with the mere basics, that is, market research. Market research is an essential component whenever someone is trying to create a new business, and it does not matter what kind of business one wants to start. So, before you start your taxi app design, always make sure to do your research about your rivals; this will let you know what other rival businesses are providing and what is needed by the customers.

When you have decided on that, the next question to answer will do you want to maintain the car yourself or leave it on the owner if you have rented the car. And last but not least you will have to decide on the fair that you will charge the customers.

Feature list

Now that you have decided all the things, you will get to the taxi app design process, and in this, you will have to list the features you are going to offer to the customer. And this is important because the customers will get to know more about your business and its services through this.
