What Poole is
Poole is a shared van booking platform for the UAE: passengers book seats on a fixed route instead of a private vehicle, while drivers run the route, manage pickups and drop-offs, and broadcast live location. Firebase ties the Passenger and Driver apps together in real time.
This article is the SEO summary. The full write-up — two-app architecture rationale, SwiftUI stack on iOS, features, concurrency challenges, and results placeholders — lives on the portfolio case study page.
Native iOS with SwiftUI
The iOS Passenger and Driver apps are framed as native SwiftUI products, with Google Maps and Firebase Auth / Realtime Database / Cloud Messaging for the shared live layer. Android companion stacks can be documented alongside once your publish notes are final.
Splitting passenger and driver into separate apps keeps UX focused, permissions appropriate (background location for drivers), and release cycles independent.
