Ensure that the phone number you used to register on the app is always on in case if the driver needs to call you.

Issues you may have:

  1. If you are seeing the world map or map of Africa instead of seeing your current location in the app, do the following:

Open Google Maps and just try to use it. If you don’t have Google maps go to play store (for android users) or app store (for iOS users) and install it.

After attempting to use Google Maps, Open the Fasttaxi app again. That will do the magic.
