Project Overview
Truck Now is a logistics technology platform designed to bring the simplicity of on-demand booking to the freight and transport industry. Codistan developed the customer-facing mobile application for Truck Now, published on the Apple App Store, enabling users to book freight services, track truck locations in real time, manage their orders, and communicate directly with drivers – all through an intuitive, purpose-built interface.
The application targets a market where logistics coordination has traditionally relied on fragmented, manual processes — phone calls, intermediaries, and uncertain timelines. Truck Now reimagines this experience by putting control directly in the hands of the customer, providing the transparency and convenience that users of ride-hailing platforms have come to expect, now applied to the movement of goods. Codistan’s role encompassed the full design and development of the customer application, from UX research through to App Store deployment.

The Challenge
Logistics booking involves considerably more complexity than consumer ride-hailing – users need to specify load details, compare carrier options, understand routing, and maintain documentation throughout a delivery. Codistan needed to design an interface that handled this operational depth without overwhelming users who may be booking freight services for the first time. Real-time tracking integration required reliable coordination between the customer application, driver systems, and backend routing infrastructure to ensure location data remained accurate throughout a delivery window. Building trust with users new to digital freight platforms was an implicit UX challenge embedded throughout the project.
Our Solution
Codistan built the Truck Now customer application around a booking flow that guides users through load specification step by step, using clear input prompts and validation to ensure complete, accurate data is captured before confirmation. The smart bidding interface presents available carriers with relevant information – ratings, truck type, pricing – enabling informed decisions without requiring deep logistics expertise. Real-time route tracking integrates with the driver-side system to deliver accurate location updates on a live map, with proactive status notifications keeping customers informed at key delivery milestones. The overall visual design communicates reliability and professionalism, building the trust foundational to adoption in a market transitioning from traditional to digital logistics.
