Enhanced Trip Reminder Notifications & Caregiver alerts Key Highlights

Hey everyone!

We released Version 4.77.0 on Tuesday, August 19, 2025. 
 

Enhanced Trip Reminder Notifications & Caregiver alerts

We’ve introduced several new updates to improve booking efficiency, passenger communications, and caregiver visibility. These updates helps in ensuring smoother operations, improve communication reliability and reduce in last-minute trip cancellations.

Key Highlights

Default SMS Consent for All Bookings at tenant level:

  • A new tenant-level setting, “Enable SMS Consent by Default,” has been introduced
  • When enabled, SMS consent is pre-selected for:
    • Bookings created manually via the booking form.
    • Bulk bookings imported via CSV upload.
  • Passengers automatically receive trip reminders SMS if SMS consent is active.

Account-Level Call & SMS Trigger Configuration:

  • Backend configuration allows notification triggers to be set per account or contract.
  • rips for accounts without notification settings will not receive SMS or call reminders.
  • Multi-select dropdown available in tenant settings to manage account-level notification preferences.

Two-Batch SMS & Call Triggers for Daily Trip Reminders

  • Notifications now sent in two batches per day:
    • Batch 1: Covers all trips created before the early notification window.
    • Batch 2: Captures late bookings creation/imports while skipping passengers already contacted.
  • Deduplication ensures a passenger is not contacted twice for the same trip.
  • Complete logging of all trip-passenger pairs included in each batch.

Prevent Calls to Invalid Phone Numbers Detected:

  • Before initiating a call, the system now validates phone numbers.
  • Numbers flagged as invalid (e.g., incomplete, malformed, disconnected) are marked “Invalid – Not Callable.”
  • Invalid numbers are stored to prevent future attempts until updated.
  • Shared invalid numbers across multiple passengers will be skipped for all related trips.

Notify Caregiver of Pickup/Drop-Off Time Change:

  • Caregivers receive push notifications when pickup or drop-off times are updated before the ride starts.
  • In-app banner alerts highlight time changes while logged in, with quick navigation to the Notifications tab.
  • Notifications tab now maintains a history of time change alerts, including:
    • Student name
    • Original time vs. updated time
    • Change duration (+/- minutes)
  • Notifications are only triggered for pre-ride updates.

Fixes & Improvements:

  • Mark All Notifications as read: Corrected functionality to ensure all notifications are properly marked read without being cleared incorrectly.
  • Single Notification read: Individual notifications now get marked as read on click.
  • Real-Time refresh: Notifications now auto-refresh in real time, eliminating the need for manual screen refresh.

We value your feedback and appreciate your continued support! Thank you for choosing TOBI.
