Ratings and reviews

I have used this app about 4 times & it gets the job done for a cheap price which I can appreciate. However, it is LAGGY. I have to close the app every time I want the GPS to update. Sometimes my drive comes off as cancelled. I cannot view previous rides. I cannot tip drivers or rate them when prompted. I thought it might be so laggy cause I have a very old phone, but even my partner with an iPhone 13 pro max struggles with the same issues. Even drivers have told me they do not trust the app.

The service is a standout based on the price. The drivers are inconsistent but not objectionable. They are not precise about pickup times in reality. They also have arbitrary Hitch pickup and drop-off locations which reduce the price and you can't use a custom pick-up location (like your home or office or actual town) unless the trip is over 50 miles and then with a large up-charge. Best for long trips if you live in a town they service.

A few weeks ago, hitch cancelled my ride without notifying me. They found a driver for me after the scheduled rides for the day because of the mistake, but then decided to blacklist my account. I can no long search for rides in the app. An error message shows up whenever I try to find a ride. Edit: Jen reached out and solved the issue, which was said to be a user-specific error. Everything works fine now!
