  1. [R3] Taxsee Driver 3/5 · US Make it possible to only take courier orders: I've been working through this app for years (as a courier, buying/delivering, towing, jump-starting, etc., orders that don't involve transporting people). I used to take orders from the general list or on the map. The app recently updated, and now auto-assignment is mandatory. I set all filters to get what I need, but there's a problem; I thought they'd fix it with the mandatory auto-assignment. · translated
  2. [R4] Taxsee Driver 1/5 · US Can't take orders on the way anymore: You need to enable auto-assignment to see the list of orders, which makes this app pointless. I don't recommend it. · translated
  3. [R5] Taxsee Driver 4/5 · US I'm really counting on you: Team, I beg and ask you, please make it possible to create a separate list for orders where we can personally add our own lists, like suburban, intercity, comfort, etc., and make it possible to sort any of these lists by price! · translated
  4. [R7] Taxsee Driver 1/5 · US Bots: Dear developers. In Primorsky Krai, specifically Nakhodka, Vladivostok, and Artyom, bots are being used. They intercept orders, change locations, falsely claim branding, and create fake orders. Please do something about this. · translated

  13. [R1] Taxsee Driver 1/5 · US Question about orders: Hello, please bring back the feature in the app where you click on an order and its cost is visible to everyone, not just those who are individual entrepreneurs or self-employed.
