The "Yandex Taxi" service has introduced a new function in the "Yandex Pro" application for drivers, which allows you to find free Wi-Fi hotspots. This innovation will help drivers to carry out transportation even in unstable Internet connections. This information was published by the company's press service.
A map with Wi-Fi access points is available offline. In order to use this function, drivers need to download the map of their city in advance. They will be able to find places with free Internet, even if there is no connection.
Currently, the application displays more than 5.5 thousand points with free Wi-Fi in 13 cities in Russia. Among them are St. Petersburg, Nizhny Novgorod, Rostov-on-Don, Tolyatti, Orenburg, Taganrog and Engels. In the future, the list of available points will be expanded, and it is also planned to make this function available to couriers.
Thus, the innovation of "Yandex Taxi" is aimed at improving the working conditions of drivers and improving the quality of customer service.
