★ About the permissions:
- PRECISE LOCATION (GPS): The objective is to show to the driver exactly where you are. Rest assured: If you change the starting point, the driver receives the location you set rather than the exact point of the GPS.
- APPROXIMATE LOCATION (BASED NETWORK): If the GPS is unavailable, the application tries to guess its position through triangulation of cellular antennas.
- READ and RECEIVE SMS: To increase security for both the taxicab driver and the passenger, we authenticate each mobile number, by sending an SMS verification. In order to receive this authentication SMS, and in order to prevent fraud, you must enter your correct mobile phone number. Security is improved when the user doesn't need to input the cel number manually, for this the 99Taxis application needs authorization to intercept the SMS automatically. For this reason and only for this purpose, it is necessary that permission.
- COMMUNICATION NETWORK and INTERNET ACCESS: All communication between the passenger's and the driver's application is made through the internet.
