August 18, 2026

This release brings various new features, improvements and bug fixes

User reviews

It’s good but needs work

The app is berry glitched and messed up but if you wait for everything to load is goes fine. They need to fix all the bugs

Never any routes available

Every time I open the app, no matter what time of day, it tells me there are no rides available. What’s going on?!

Completely Unreliable

Relying on this system is a terror for people who need to get to work and school, and whose futures and stability are currently depending on this transportation.

Don’t if you have an appointment

Pick up times are inconsistent. Scheduled rides have made me late to appointments multiple times.

Queue

Why is it that when I request a ride and tell me it’s 17 mins until pick up and then check back says 9 mins and then wait 10 mins I’m still at 9 mins. Can you fix your system where person in queue gets picked up at the appropriate time that is scheduled. Same thing goes for when getting dropped off why after I get picked up we do go around the block and pick up another person where I was just picked up and do that and more times? Make the system work better this is getting annoying. It’s not very smooth of a system.
