4 best ride apps
In addition to meeting the travel needs of passengers, ride-sharing apps split the cost of the trip for those who drive. There is also a contribution to the environment by reducing the number of cars on the streets and highways. These apps have a user rating system to make the experience safer. And what are the best options?
1 – BlaBlaCar
Blablacar is one of the most popular carpooling apps today. The service focuses on long-distance shared rides. To do so, simply inform the departure and arrival address, the date and check if there is any user making a similar route on the specified date.
With regard to security, each driver and passenger has a service user profile. Riders rate each other to help others decide if they'd like to share a ride. There is also the Just for Women filter, which allows women to find or offer trips only with other women. This option only appears for members logged into their account. According to the company, drivers can save up to 75% on their trips. Passengers will spend 30% to 50% less than if they opted for the bus. (See more about the BlaBlaCar app).
2 – Waze Carpool
On Waze Carpool, drivers are users who look for other people to share travel expenses such as gas and tolls. The app matches drivers and passengers with common routes. If you are concerned about other travelers, you can check out their profiles and comments from other users. Or take advantage of the app's features to filter people by gender or place of work.

Therefore, women will only feel safer if they travel with other women. Or people who work at the same company or building and live nearby can book a ride through the app and split the cost. (See more about the app Waze Carpool).
3 – Uber Juntos
Uber Together is the most cost-effective way to use the popular transportation app. In this case, the trip was made by a registered Uber driver. The route will be shared with other users who choose the same route and follow an itinerary similar to yours.
Passengers cannot decide who to share the car with. This choice is at the discretion of the driver. Also, as with other apps, the fees charged are for the service, not the trip. However, that price can reach half of an UberX trip, according to the company. Uber Together can be ordered through the Uber app. (See more about the app uber together).
4 – Wunder – Carona Combinada
Wunder – Combined Ride travels the routes of drivers and passengers to create an experience that benefits everyone. Drivers benefit from sharing fuel with others traveling on similar routes, reducing daily fuel costs.
The user only pays the amount of travel expenses, as the vehicle is driven by an ordinary person who took a similar route to his. Each of them has a service profile that other travelers can use to rate them. Reviews are a way to help you decide who to share your journey with. Currently, Wunder is only available in Rio de Janeiro. (See more about the app wunder).
