Does InDrive show the car plate number when booking a taxi in Sharm el-Sheikh?

TL;DR
InDrive does show the car number and model, but the plate is often hard to spot on the actual car. The driver will also call you — just make sure you have internet when placing the order.

The driver may arrive in a different car than shown, but it will still be the same driver you agreed with. Sharing a photo of your location helps the driver find you faster.

A useful trick: send the driver your photo via the in-app chat, then when a car pulls up, ask the driver to show your photo on his phone — that way you confirm it's the right car.

The driver will call you after accepting the ride. If you placed the order on hotel Wi-Fi and then went offline, it's fine — just make sure to accept the driver's call or confirm pickup before losing internet.

InDrive displays the car plate number and model in the app, but in practice Egyptian cars can be hard to identify by plate — it's easy to accidentally get into the wrong vehicle.
