Manage shared rides of your existing carpool on frequently used routes (no, this is not yet another app for searching and connecting unknown drivers and riders). Access anytime your updated list of passengers on the next trips, let MyCarpoolApp suggest the driver, share your costs, exchange messages with your co-riders and get support in other everyday tasks of a sustainable ridesharing group.

CONCEPT
The app is designed for groups of about 3 to 20 people who know and trust each other, such as colleagues, fellow students, or neighbors, who take turns to drive their kids to school.
According to the requirements of your carpool, you can simply use MyCarpoolApp to know always who of your buddies wants to share a ride and whose turn it is to drive. If you have more advanced needs, MyCarpoolApp helps you estimate reliably and easily the costs to share either by assigning fixed amounts to each or your routes, or by taking into account variables like fuel type and fuel consumption of each car, highway tolls, discounts, and other costs per mile.

FEATURES
• Each user can select routes, days and times from the schedule of your carpool in a few seconds.
• Other routes, days and times can be added easily as needed.
• Quick and easy selection of passengers and drivers.
• Routes with multiple stops are possible.
• Confirmation when the proposed driver has seen the planned schedule.
• Dark theme and customizable icons.
• Promote trust and transparency among members of a group: a user can set up the app for the whole group and enter and modify data on behalf of less experienced members; all members of the group can use the same credentials.
• Each member of the carpool can change the data of their group, so that it’s no problem if riders don’t have a mobile device or if they are slow updating their data.
• Suggestion of the drivers taking into account the drivers in the past weeks to share the costs and the responsibility as fair as possible.
• Possibility to modify data of past trips to correct the passenger list or adjust costs.
• Numerous configuration options to calculate the costs as accurately as possible: fuel types and prices, consumption of cars and number of seats, distances, toll roads, discounts of highway tolls.
• Usage statistics and cost control.
• History of payments made to other group members.
• Notifications to be informed about last-minute changes and messages from members of your group.
• Personal start points and end points of multi-stop routes.
• Implementation of several formulas for calculating discounts and subsidies of toll fees.
• Thanks to the collaborative approach, the entire community of users of MyCarpoolApp keeps data updated.
• Interactive help for the main functions.
