Rider reviews

"I’ve been driving with them for months now and I see an app that is getting better and better. I think rides are well paid. The customer service agents have also been very helpful when I’ve had issues with my rides."

Edgar A

"I was so happy to find Hitch on the Google play store! It is a long distance rideshare app. that is a much better option than Lyft when you are in need of a long distance ride. I highly recommend this app as it is very easy to use and getting in contact with them is so easy thru the app!"

"Great app for travelling intercity in Texas! Has several drop times and ride sharing options. It's way cheaper than the rest and extremely convenient. You'll probably have to schedule the a day advance to get it at the desired time. There should be an option to schedule rides in the night and more drop points share rides."

"Hitch is a great way to meet new people, and get paid for your time of driving a stranger to a city you might already be going too. They pay really good for the time spent, and the return is so worth the drive! Thank you, Hitch, for coming to Florida, and allowing me to drive for you. The only thing I'd say needs better attention, is the mapping. It glitches out. Confirming if a rider is picked up or dropped off, sometimes the app will log you out 25 times before you can confirm either or."
