"Geben Sie einfach Ihren Fahrtwunsch ein, wobei hier je nach Extrawunsch eine Vorbestellfrist von 30 bis 60 Minuten zu beachten ist. Falls fahrplanmäßige Bus- und/oder Bahnverbindungen zur Verfügung stehen, werden diese angezeigt und empfohlen. Kann Ihr Fahrtwunsch nicht innerhalb einer Stunde durch reguläre Bus und/oder Bahnverbindungen bedient werden, können Sie bequem über die App ein ÖPNV-Taxi zu günstigen Fahrpreisen bestellen. Das Angebot gilt werktags von 5 bis 24 Uhr und an Wochenenden von 7 bis 1 Uhr in den Städten Freudenstadt und Horb mit Ortsteile. Die Fahrt mit dem ÖPNV-Taxi ist preislich sehr attraktiv. Je Fahrt und Fahrgast wird lediglich ein Zuschlag von 2 Euro (Personen unter 18 Jahren 1 Euro) zusätzlich zum normalen vgf-Tarif erhoben. Auch eine Haustürbedienung ist möglich. Für diesen Service wird ein weiterer Zuschlag von 5 EUR berechnet. Diese günstigen Tarife gelten allerdings nur, wenn der Fahrtwunsch nicht innerhalb einer Stunde durch fahrplanmäßige Bus- und Bahnverbindungen erfüllt werden kann. "
