These ensure accurate location tracking, notification delivery, and proper operation—including in the background. Without these settings, some features may be limited. 🔐 **Why are these permissions important?** When you first launch the myCloudTaxi app, you will be asked to grant certain permissions. They are essential to ensure proper service operation and allow drivers to receive and manage trips efficiently. These permissions enable you to: - 📍 Accurately display your location for pickups - 🔔 Receive notifications for new trips and messages - ⚙️ Keep the app running in the background - 🚖 Ensure service continuity even when the screen is locked  Without these permissions, some key features may be limited or unavailable. 👉 These settings are recommended for optimal use and can be changed at any time in your phone settings.   📲 **Setup on iPhone (iOS)** 🔔 **Notifications** - Open **Settings** - Tap **Notifications → myCloudTaxi** - Enable **Allow Notifications**   📍 **App settings** - Open **Settings → myCloudTaxi** - Configure: - **Location**: Always *(recommended for real-time trip requests)* - **Background App Refresh**: Enabled - **Cellular Data**: Enabled 🤖 **Setup on Android** - Open **Settings** - Go to **Location** - Select **App permissions → myCloudTaxi**   Choose: 👉 **Allow only while using the app** *(or “Allow all the time” depending on your Android version, recommended for maximum availability)*   ℹ️ **Good to know** - Requested permissions are strictly necessary for the app to function - No data is used outside the operational scope of the service - You can modify these settings at any time - If you experience issues receiving trips or notifications, check these settings first   ⭐ **Summary** ✔ Location access for pickups ✔ Notifications for trips and messages ✔ Background operation enabled ✔ Essential for receiving requests ✔ Adjustable at any time   👉 Proper configuration ensures you never miss a trip. -
