App not fully functional?

Several of the buttons on the Home Screen do not work - slightly frustrating!

Terrible.

I don’t actually know what it does anymore. I’ve sent many request and messages and not have a single response. Deleted.

So disappointing

I believe passionately in doing what Liftshare sets out to offer. Cars with only one person in are stupid. I am very much up for the scheme.

But being offered potential liftees who live off my route, or who need to travel beyond my route is a waste of time. I drive daily from South London SE5 to just past Gatwick airport - north side - but through the airport. You would have thought that there might be a “market” for the journey. But what I get is constant asks for Crawley - and sometimes via pick ups that are way off any obvious route.

If you drive 20 minutes out of your way at both ends of the day, and lose 40 minutes pay as a result, the cost hit is just too high. Please give me people in Dulwich or Streatham or Thornton Heath or Croydon who want to go to Gatwick or Horley or Redhill or Reigate.

Great idea - please get it right!

Rant over!

Liftshare

Easy to use and super intuitive - even for someone not tech savvy like me ! I’ve shared a fair few lifts over time ( commuting and odd trips ) and it’s great to be able to see how many miles I’ve taken off the roads & c02 I’ve saved by sharing . Have been trying to get friends & family to use for a while now too !

Fantastic since the latest update

Now everything you would want it to do. The design is simple and elegant. Would highly recommend. A++

Awful app

This is by far one of the worst apps I’ve ever experienced. It’s there to try to solve my companies cap park issues by allowing you to share lifts but where do I start. Can’t find people in the system. Can’t find journeys. Can’t register my phone number. Can’t accept a journey request I’ve actually been sent by a colleague. Help function is useless. I highly expect the commencement of lift sharing at work tomorrow to be a failure if the app - and website which is equally bad - doesn’t improve quickly.

Can’t link to FB or create an account

Well that’s a first! Can’t link to Facebook as I did that on the mobile web version. And I can’t create an account by email either. So it’s completely useless as I can’t get in.
Also - and this is super annoying - On the mobile web version I’m trying to create a journey as a driver. I put all the info and and then when I Post the journey it says ‘Nothing found’ like I’m searching for something when I’m actually posting a ride.
I can’t use either of your platforms.
I gave you a one star rating but actually you don’t deserve 1 star!

Absolute useless app

The app has a flaw. My Facebook account is already linked to Liftshare as I can log in though Facebook on the desktop but on my phone been trying for ages now but it keeps brining an error message up. Also whenever I click on the email messages to reply it keeps telling me to go on the app first which is so frustrating because the app doesn’t work. Fix it!

Update well worth it

Updated app makes it much easier to use, more modern too.

New design and clear home screen is ace!

The new version is so much easier to navigate around!
