Hello there, I have a question. How it can be possible to estimate the price without gathering destination and car info?

In the example given in the video, the user flow is like "Select destination" --> "Choose number of riders" --> "Price Estimation" --> ....

Is it possible to estimate the price with this information?

Hey sevgicanpolat, from reviewing the "Making User Flows" video it seems the flow starts with "Select Destination...Number of Riders...Car Preference and Price Estimate...etc.

Comparing to a similar ridesharing app like Uber or Lyft this seems pretty standard and would be enough to begin getting an estimate on the price.

Step 1: Select destination (tells us how far we will be going) Step 2: Number of riders (tells us how large a vehicle we may need) Step 3: Car Preference and Price Estimate (Allows the user to pick their car type (smaller budget-friendly vs larger or luxury vehicle)

With the destination, number of riders, and selected car type we can begin to give the user an estimate on what the ride will cost.

Let me know if this helps clear up your question or not as I'd be happy to discuss this further!
