We know how big the industry of packers and movers has grown over time, with people and businesses moving, shifting and expanding across locations ever more frequently. The domain is not just growing in terms of expanse and numbers but also getting organized in its ways and forms.
This has been quite prominently finding grounds with on-demand transportation units offering highly resourceful and streamlined options to put up with such services. Not just by connecting providers with users seamlessly through their tech-fed devices on the go but also by allowing better ever possibilities to book, track, pay and take assistance for on-demand movement with higher ease, accuracy, and security.
This is disrupting the processes and practices that were prevalent earlier and making it meet with advanced roles and traits of mobile on-demand services. And this has been made possible by apps like Uber-Movers by putting up with compelling options to empower users and businesses to effectively connect and get served – making the industry grow further in significance and value, opening larger vents of opportunities for more services to join and explore their share of profit and fame.
Looking at that, it seems to be a highly lucrative plan to go for, in a way you like the most – maybe adding new features, ideas and traits that deliver unique Movers app value to your target audiences.
Here, while you do this, you should stick to the trade standards and core technical factors. So that you keep it well-aligned with the reference entity in terms of communication and features. Referring to that, here are the four pivotal features you should consider to get it right with building an on-demand movers app:
The very first thing you should be striving to provide through your app is user convenience. Here you should know what kind of a need or situation they are in while ordering the packing and movement services through the app. In a general scenario, they would like to be served on a particular date and time and must be having certain preferences to avail the services. Let them schedule their booking and select their preferences with packing with a particular provider. Be flexible and act more open to options. If they are happy, you are rewarded!
Making payment online is still a matter of concern for many users. They are reluctant and unwilling to share their bank details just with any service. So, to break this barrier of trade between your user and you, you should be offering them a trusted source of payment through your app – whether it is through a credit/debit card, e-wallet or online banking. In addition to this, you should go a step ahead and allow users to have a pay by cash option. So, if you want users to join without a panic-button by their side, make sure you allow them seamless and secure payment options.
When you talk about anything movement, tracking is the first thing to come as a feature. Here, in the case of a packer and mover app, there’s no limit to distances and routes you take to shift items. And when you have personal belongings, valuables, and furniture to be transported across locations, it gets ever more important to allow users to track your movement. For this, your Uber-like-movers app should allow users to track the path and location in real-time, interfacing with a neat and interactive map. If they are in control of seeing all the action that is taking place, it’s your victory!
Services like packers and movers are mainly preferred by the users based on references. It is important to convey ratings and reviews about your services to users. This can be done by creating a panel that allows user to login and comment about the experience they had using the service. This can be further optimized by taking weight ratings by aggregating the number of time service being used by a particular user. Better if you get this done by allowing them to log in through their social profiles. This will further add to the validity and veracity of the user review.
All the above 4 features are crucial to your success with an apps like Uber for movers. Implement all of these to best match your product and purpose and align your communication with a host of supporting features that help you interface well with users, and find best results coming your way.
