Need a ride home

Get picked up in one tap

$0.99 · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

The simple, private way to ask for a pickup. One tap texts your exact location to someone you trust — no account, no tracking, no fuss. Need a Ride home makes asking for a lift as simple as one tap. Open the app, tap "Pick me up," and a text message goes to the person you trust — with your exact location and a map link so they know precisely where to find you. No phone calls, no typing out where you are, no explaining. Great for the whole family: • Kids and teens texting a parent when they need a ride home • Parents whose teen just got their license — finally, flip the script and let them do the driving for once • Anyone who's out and just wants a familiar face to come get them Whether you're picking up or being picked up, it's the same easy tap. HOW IT WORKS • Add the person who usually drives — that's the whole setup • Tap "Pick me up" to text them your location instantly • Somewhere else? Tap the map to set an exact pickup spot SIMPLE AND PRIVATE • No account, no sign-up, no password • Your location is shared only when you tap send — never in the background • Nothing is tracked, and there are no ads • Your contacts stay on your device WORKS WITH WHAT YOU ALREADY HAVE • Sends a normal text message through Messages • No app required on the other person's phone • The map link opens in Apple Maps or Google Maps Need a Ride does one thing and does it well: get you picked up, fast.
