Share Your Location with the Customer

The "On My Way" alert can also include a location pin showing your current location. This helps your customer see where you are and gives them a better idea of when you may arrive.

You can also edit the location information before sending the alert if needed.

Once the alert is sent, your customer will know that you're on your way and can use the shared location to better understand your arrival status. This helps reduce uncertainty and keeps the customer informed throughout the visit.
