Azores1 app guide
Shared rides
How do I find or offer a shared ride in the Azores1 app?
Short answer
Tap the Rides tile. Find a ride by route and day, offer the free seats in your car, ask for a seat or share a taxi - between the airport, the ferry port, the towns and the trailheads. You request a seat, the organiser accepts, and you agree the details in the ride's chat, which can translate. Nothing is paid through the app.
Where to find it
The Rides tile on the home sheet, the Shared rides section of each trail page, and Messages at the top right.
Step by step
- 1Tap Rides and sign in. Before you post or join you add a profile photo and accept the ride terms.
- 2Fill in From and To, the day and the passengers, and open a ride from the results.
- 3Tap Request a seat and choose where you get on and off; the organiser accepts or declines.
- 4Nothing on your day? Tap Publish my request or Notify me.
- 5To offer seats, tap Publish a ride, then I'm driving, I'm taking a taxi or I need a ride; set the stops, time, seats and a cost share, then Publish.
- 6Talk in the ride's chat and tap Translate under a message in another language.

Questions
