Waze Carpool for Positive User Reviews
✓ Waze is helping me save the planetFor the last three months I have tried to carpool and Waze has been a very substantial part of that effort. Within a few days I was able to connect with new carpoolers. Since Waze allows you to connect with your preferred carpoolers, it can be a very safe and enjoyable option for my daily commute.Version: 2.21
✓ Flexible and Cost EffectiveI really enjoy how flexible this service is and appreciate the ability to cancel without penalty. The people I’ve met are a nice community of folks who make the time and long distances traveled enjoyable. It’s a smart app. The only flaws are it’s inability to recognize unsafe pickup/drop off locations and difficulty in communications with developers. I’ve used it long enough to work around the locations issue but still don’t have a good handle on customer service issues. Overall I really do enjoy using this app and appreciate the work that has gone into its development. Thank you, Waze/Google!.Version: 2.22
✓ Life saver for getting to work!I've met great people and made my commute so much less expensive. Highly recommend you give it a try. Takes some effort to establish your matches so give it a bit of time because it really can change your life - can't say that about most apps!.Version: 2.19
✓ Great app for carpooling!I love using Waze for my daily commute to work. I referred it to a friend and when she took her first ride (which is always free), I got $20 in carpool reward which is giving me 50% discount on my rides! The communication via messaging helps to convey the exact timing and pickup location to the drivers. Just one drawback is that the app is little slow, would love to see an improvement with that. All in all, it is a great app, definitely cheaper than Uber/ Lyft. Saves money and reduces traffic. So win-win! :).Version: 2.20
✓ Good use for long commute, but needs more improvementsI used it for commute from South Bay to sf. It saved me to some degree, and cheaper than Scoop. However, there are a few bugs on the application. One is that once the time is approaching, I cannot open the pickup address on map anymore, which means I can only guess if I get the right place, based on the moving spot on the built-in map. Also the speed is slow when I click some buttons sometimes, and I cannot see the messages from drivers immediately when the notification is pushed to my phone. But I will keep using it, since it is so cheap and the best choice in carpool!.Version: 2.19
✓ Great app! + suggestionsRecently downloaded this app only a few days ago and already found a couple of drivers to carpool with (in the SF Bay Area). Would love if you could 1. Customize and save your greeting when requesting rides 2. Have a list of people who you previously rode with and their schedule for the week so that you could set up rides outside of the algorithm 3. Filter through drivers who are not active within a specified time period 4. Sync through google calendar 5. Provide widget support displaying your next carpool Thanks for a great app!.Version: 2.16.2
✓ PLEASE DONT CANCEL WAZE CARPOOL!!Waze carpool has a literally saved me in so many situations and it would be an absolute shame for Google to cancel this app instead of integrating it better into the system and running better advertisements. We care about preserving energy, saving the world, reducing pollution, and not having to pay insane prices for cabs and taxis..Version: 2.52
✓ Great app for carpoolingIt's been a good experience for me so far. The drivers and user interface is smooth. There is no payment problem till date although sometimes you get charged double but it gets added the next day. The referral program is a boom as it makes the rides cheap. I recommend this app for interns or anyone who wants to build connections..Version: 2.24
✓ Amazing FunctionalityUnlike Scoop, Waze let’s me request rights from multiple people, and allows me to set my pick up and drop off locations, times, etc. It is also cheaper than public transport. It is also a very nice community app. I now have 2 or 3 people who I carpool with regularly, so I feel a sense of community. It is really nice, u should use it..Version: 2.50
✓ A community of “Cool-Poolers”Fantastic UI and even more fantastic people, it really feels like a win-win-win for drivers, riders, and Waze. Drivers cover gas, I get a ride, and Waze gets the satisfaction of building a super cool community of cool-poolers! Here’s why I’m excited about Waze Carpool: - Cost Effective. Same $ as Caltrain and it’s (almost) door-to-door. - Friendly. I’ve had great conversations with people I would never usually meet...even met a fellow Minnesotan. - Flexible. I can request a ride part way through the day in response to my meeting schedule or after work plans that pop-up. - Efficient. Waze takes us on the best routes to combat traffic. And I’ve saved so much time not walking to the Caltrain or taking ride-sharing apps. Excited to continue to carpool with Waze. One week in and I’m sold!.Version: 1.25.6
✓ It saves my life but addresses are a bit confusing.The app is great but it can be a bit confusing since it doesn't shows you the best option close to your address. Sometimes you move one block and you are plenty of options. I wish they fix this and let you know all the options within a certain radius....Version: 2.19
✓ Best Carpool app!!I never knew this app existed until my friend told me about this. I started using this a week back and I love this app. With minimal walking distance I can find carpools from home to work. For me to get to work using public transport I need to take two buses and a T or a bus, a T and shuttle and all of those would take me 1hr 40 mins. But this carpool app could find me 15 minutes total walk time and gets me directly to my workplace..Version: 2.15
✓ Love itIt’s really cheap. I use it to get to work. I used to pay around $11 (express pool) - $20 (UberX) with Uber and now it costs me $4. My driver makes $9 per ride. The only problem is that there aren’t that many drivers. I found someone who takes my route everyday so it isn’t a problem but beware that you might not get a ride. As more people use the app, I’m sure this problem will go away..Version: 2.15
✓ Walk distanceWaze on its own shows some walk distance for riders even the driver has not set any location for pickup, i find this very annoying because first i am not able drag the pickup spot near to my home in some cases and second drivers dont have a problem for driving to the house even then they have to text and ask the exact location. There should be a option for drivers to put their preference if they can pickup from the house or they want rider to come to some place..Version: 2.19
✓ Fantastically flexibleThis is so much better than Scoop, way more options like being able to view profiles and routes to choose who to offer a ride to or request a ride from and being able to reject an offer or request, cheaper to ride and better paying to drive!.Version: 2.15
✓ Useful app, reasonably accessible with voiceover screen readerI am a visually impaired iPhone user. I like Waze because I can identify where the pick up and drop off points are using voiceover. This feature is not yet accessible using the carpool options on several other popular apps. However, Waze still needs some improvements. My rider rating is not spoken properly, as voiceover does not indicate partial stars. So even though I have close to a five star rating, it tells me that I am at four. Another concern is that focus tends to be spotty on the main screen when there are incoming ride offers from drivers. Overall though, this app is very promising..Version: 2.9
✓ Great concept, still has kinks to iron outI have been using this app for almost 10 months and for the most part love it. There are some functions that could be better like adding more riders to your carpool, which is the point of you know, carpools. Also, it should be easier to contact and add riders or drivers you have carpooled with before. Often times, I just have to text people and then Venmo them payment because the app won’t allow me to search for them specifically and add them. Also, the app gives me driver options who are not within my time bracket or even close to my route. It’s totally confusing..Version: 2.24
✓ Scared at first, but now loving it.I was a skeptic about this app when it first came out. I hesitated to use it until a few months later and I’m happy I made that choice. I don’t need this app to make any money, I just need someone to be in my car so that I can use the carpool lane. My first pick up was an amazing guy that works across the street and we had a really good conversation during the ride. The only thing that I would like Waze to improve is their map directions when it comes to picking up and dropping off. At times it could be a little confusing to pin point their exact locations since there’s only a little info provided. I would suggest people that commute a lot to start using this app so we can have more drivers and carpoolers!.Version: 1.28
✓ Solution to carpool woes but interface is clunkyI like feature to form a group with fellow carpoolers but sometimes it’s hard to see the exact location of pickup and Dropoff. I like the rating feature and feature which lets riders communicate with each other. Easy to schedule rides and give ratings..Version: 2.19
✓ Awful update. Please fix itI’ve been using this app for few months and I loved it. However, with the latest update, I am unable to request a ride for a specific driver. I’ve been pooling with the same guy for 6+ months, and now we don’t see each other from the list and are both struggling. We even tried to put the exact same pick up/drop off address to see if we could see each other from the list but this didn’t work. Now I see a bunch of drivers who are just not responding. Please fix this..Version: 2.0
✓ I cannot stress enough how helpful this isI commute on the train (2 trains and a bus to be exact) and getting a ride to work makes my morning so much better- Uber and Lyft are insanely expensive though and so i tried Waze carpool, which is SO MUCH BETTER!!! I ride every morning to work with my new friend Jack, who i matched with through the carpool app since our routes are so similar. Turns out jack was driving literally RIGHT on my commute solo for the last few months and now we ride together every morning..Version: 2.14.3
✓ Flexible for my commuteThis app is a lifesaver! I don’t have a car, and I always find super affordable rides to work with people in my area who are already going the same way as I am. I’ve met some really great people and even made some friends! My favorite part about this app is the flexibility. I’m not always sure which days/times/locations I’m commuting, which is why I love the ability to customize my schedule day-by-day for whatever works for me..Version: 2.10.1
