The driver installs Route Driver, creates an account with their own email and enters these details with + (Driver app).

Approving the link

  2. Check that it is the right person and click Approve.
  3. After approval the driver sees the route of the vehicle assigned to them and can start trips. If no vehicle is assigned yet, the app says the assignment is pending.

Cancelling a link

Cancel link removes a pending or approved link. The driver key is renewed and the new key is shown to you once; the old key and old QR code stop working. A driver with an active trip cannot be unlinked. The driver can also remove the account from the app; the list then shows who removed it and when.
