Error message upon setup

When I try to sign up and submit a phone number for verification, the following error message pops up: "User pool does not exist."

Please fix this-- we really need a good alternative to the rideshare monopolists.

Please fix

I love the idea of this app. The rides I've had have been with very kind and competent drivers, but unfortunately the app no longer works. I cannot get past the phone number verification. Please fix the app so all the many people that want to support co-op owned businesses can!

Automatically resetting.

When i try typing destinations and origin, the screen resets every time, forcing me to retype after i already did that. There are the issues of no rides available, not enough recruitment. These issues still need to be addressed. I lile an alternative option, but fix these please.

Update:
So now the app tells me no user pool exists. I cannot use the app anymore. I tried getting customer service to offer me an explanation, but they never responded after 2 days.

I’m deleting this app. A great idea with no execution or support.

User pool does not exist

I can’t get past the phone number text verification request. When I enter a phone number I get an error saying user pool does not exist. Maybe because my phone number is not an NYC number? I would like to be able to use this service when I’m in town but it seems like that won’t be possible. I fully support this initiative though.

Accessibility options don’t work

There is no way to scroll down to see all of the accessibility options and confirm them. I can’t take a ride with my wheelchair.
