Europe's Largest Lift Sharing Portal Has Launched Its Free Carpooling IPhone App
Rideshare.co.uk has continued to add its own "touch" to lift sharing, with its new free iPhone application. Now iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad users can find and arrange lifts from anywhere at any time.
Online, February 22, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Rideshare.co.uk is continuing to strengthen the link between cheap, sustainable travel and high tech solutions, by launching its free carpooling iPhone app. The free iPhone app enables users to easily search for or offer car journeys while on the move, so that they can save money, time and the environment by travelling together.
The rideshare.co.uk application has instant access to Europe's largest lift sharing database, with more than 400,000 lifts in the UK and Europe. This gives many people mobile access to a cheaper travel option when trains or planes are booked out, cancelled or too expensive.
With the application, as soon as the user has found the lift that they want to take, they can easily use the built in functionality to contact the other person by text, email or telephone. Logged in users can also add new offers or requests or edit entries that are already in their account.
The application combines the capabilities of the iPhone - such as geolocation - with the simple style and intuitiveness of rideshare.co.uk, providing a useful tool for anyone from frequent to occasional travellers, to arrange their next lift shares while on the move.
Rideshare.co.uk will also expand its mobile reach even further with a dedicated Android application in the near future.
The iPhone app can be downloaded for free from the iTunes App Store, by going to the "Travel" category, or by using the following URL:
