The problem

Sagarmatha Rides' driver app drained batteries within four hours and lost fare data when riders passed through low-signal corridors on the Prithvi Highway.

Technical execution

  1. 01Reworked location tracking with adaptive sampling based on movement state
  2. 02Implemented on-device fare calculation with server reconciliation
  3. 03Built an offline trip queue that survives app termination
  4. 04Reduced background wake-ups by 71%
