Captain Ameen — rider and driver apps
An Uber-style ride-hailing product delivered as two coordinated apps, one for riders and one for drivers, on a shared Firebase backend.
- Flutter
- Dart
- Firebase
- Cloud Firestore
- Firebase Authentication
- Google Maps SDK
The problem
A ride only works if the rider and the driver see the same thing at the same moment: the request, the driver's position and every change in the trip's state. Both apps had to stay in sync in real time and sign users in with their phone numbers.
The solution
I built both apps on a shared Firebase backend with real-time ride requests, live driver location tracking and trip state synchronization, phone-based authentication, and Google Maps SDK for routing and pickup selection.
