Clients can add up to 2 additional destinations on the way. This can be done through the app. These additional destinations are marked on your trip route as black squares, and the final destination is marked as a red square. When you arrive at one of the additional destinations, a slider appears at the bottom of the screen for you to press "CONFIRM STOP." Press "End Trip" only when a client has exited your vehicle at the final destination. If a client adds a destination during the trip, the additional waiting time and distance will be factored into the fare.
