## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 1.1 — 2026-10-01

What's changed since the last approved version

Rides, deliveries and food delivery
- The trip map follows the driver live. During an active trip, the driver's location keeps updating in the background until the trip ends. It stops on completion, cancellation or sign-out.
- Once a driver accepts, the rider sees a "Verified driver" card with the driver's photo and, for rides, the car and plate.
- New ride and food tier pickers. Rush-hour pricing is shown before the rider requests.
- AI Help can prepare a ride, delivery, or food request from a conversation. Nothing is sent until the user reviews it and taps Confirm.

Driver and courier safety
- Drivers must be verified before going online. The documents depend on the vehicle: license, registration, and insurance for a car; government ID for a bike or on foot. A live profile photo is also required. An administrator reviews and approves each document.
- Random selfie checks confirm that the verified person is the one driving. Selfies are deleted 30 days after review.
- Drivers get reminders before a document expires and are paused when it lapses.
- Drivers now rate riders. Ratings stay hidden until both sides have rated, or 7 days have passed.
- Accounts with consistently low ratings are warned, then limited or paused. Every such step comes with an explanation and a way to appeal.

Account and notifications
- Notification and location permission prompts now appear after sign-in, using the standard system dialogs.
- A "Settings for MyMerkato" shortcut sits under "How to use the app".
- Account deletion now asks the user to confirm their identity first, and removes driver-verification and rating data.
- Tapping a notification opens the matching screen.
- Updated Terms of Service and Privacy Policy (v5.5), covering driver verification, selfie checks and ratings.

Other
- Profile shows the user's current plan.
- Past bookings can be cleared or hidden.
- New onboarding pages and a refreshed color palette.
- Bug fixes and security improvements.
