Farida Delivery is a business application designed for delivery companies contracted with the Chef Farida platform and its teams.
The application is not intended for the general public: use requires an account created by the delivery company or platform management, and there is no self-registration within the app. Customers cannot order food directly through the app—customer orders are placed through a separate customer application.
The application serves three types of users, each with its own login tab on the home screen: Captain, Company, and Merchant.
◾ For Captains (Drivers)
• Work Status: With a single button, you can specify whether you are "available" to start your shift or "unavailable" to finish it. You will not receive orders when you are unavailable.
• Receiving Orders: You will receive orders relevant to your area via instant notification, with a specific timeframe for responding. You can accept or decline, and if you do not respond, the order will be automatically redirected to another captain.
• Order Details: Pickup address and pickup company details (restaurant, merchant, or company), customer details and delivery address, order contents, delivery notes, and a breakdown of the order value, delivery fees, and payment method.
• Map and Route: A map showing the pickup location and customer address, along with the driving route between them.
• Direct Contact: Buttons to contact the pickup company or customer directly from within the app without needing to save phone numbers.
• Order Tracking: Step-by-step order status updates—arrival at pickup location, order pickup, en route, and delivery—with each step reflected instantly for both the company and the customer.
• Order History: An archive of all previous orders, including details and dates for each order.
• Wallet: Displays current balance, a detailed transaction history (adds and debits), and the ability to submit a shipping request to the company. A minimum balance is required to receive orders.
• SOS Button: In emergencies, sends an immediate alert to the company and platform administrators, along with your current location.
• Notifications: Instant alerts for new orders, status updates, approval decisions, and wallet top-ups.
◾ For Delivery Company Administrators
• Driver Tracking: A list of company drivers and their status (available/unavailable), and a live map of drivers' locations while on duty.
• Order Management: View company orders and track their progress until delivery.
• Create and assign delivery orders directly to drivers.
• Customer Log: Save data on repeat customers to expedite order creation.
• Coverage Areas: Define the areas served by the company.
• Settlements and Wallet: A record of financial settlements and wallet activity.
• Driver distress alerts.
◾ For Merchants

• Track the status of each order until delivery.
• Branch and Branch Manager Management.

Location Sharing
The app uses your device's location to enable the delivery company to assign nearby orders, track deliveries, and display the route on a map.
• Location is shared only when the driver's status is "Available."
• A persistent notification appears on the device screen throughout the location sharing period, keeping the driver informed that their location is being shared.
• Sharing may continue while the app runs in the background during shifts to ensure uninterrupted tracking of ongoing deliveries.
• Sharing stops immediately when the status is changed to "Unavailable" or the driver logs out of the app.
• No location data is shared outside of business hours.
Requirements
• A registered account with the delivery company or platform administrator.
• Internet connection.
• Location services (GPS) must be enabled and the app granted permission to use them.
• The app interface is in Arabic.
For registered drivers: Receive delivery orders, track your route, and deliver them to the customer.
