Shared rides: Facebook groups or an app
Many people in Bulgaria look for a shared ride in Facebook groups. This makes sense: the people are already there. An app solves other problems. Here is the difference, with no exaggeration.
When a Facebook group is better
- A big group has many members, so it often has posts for the popular routes.
- You need no new account if you already have Facebook.
- You can write what you look for in your own words.
When a group is harder
- A ride is a post in the feed, so you look for the date and the direction by hand.
- Old posts stay next to the new ones.
- A group has no ratings for the driver and the passenger.
- You must check the group again if it has nothing for your day today.
What VozyMe gives you
- You search by where from, where to and when.
- A driver confirms a phone number before publishing.
- The public profile shows the ratings from earlier passengers.
- The driver approves each seat request.
- You can leave an alert and find out when a ride appears.
- The trains and the buses of the day are in the same list.
What VozyMe does not have yet
Shared rides on VozyMe are still growing, so your day may have no car. This is why we also show the trains and the buses. If you drive one of these routes, publish your ride. This makes the list more useful for everyone.
What to do
You do not have to pick only one. Check the route on VozyMe, leave an alert, and look at your group too. Whatever you choose, check the driver and agree on the amount in advance.
