Yango mobile app for iOS and Android is available for free download in Amharic and many other languages. To order a car, users download the app, open it and specify where they want to go. When geolocation is enabled, the service pinpoints where the user is and finds the nearby driver who will arrive the fastest. Yango powered by ShuuFare is a cash-only service now, so when a user orders a car, they input their destination address and the app algorithms automatically calculate the price of the trip ahead of time.
In addition Yango is planning to integrate with local payment solutions such as Telebirr taking a part the digitization of Ethiopia. If a user needs more information, has a question, or even forgets something in the car, they can contact a dedicated support team through the app. As a means of additional quality control, Yango app allows users to rate each ride, and drivers with low ratings may be denied access to the service for a period of time.
