About this app

The GoZone app makes it easier than ever to move around Denton County, TX — with a few taps, book a ride using the app and we’ll pair you with others headed your way. No detours, no delays.

What we’re about:
SHARED.
Our tech matches people headed in the same direction. This means you’re getting the convenience and comfort of a private ride with the efficiency, speed, and affordability of a public one.

SUSTAINABLE.
Sharing rides reduces the number of vehicles on the roads, bringing down congestion and CO2 emissions. With a couple of taps, you get to do your part to make your city a little bit greener and cleaner, every time you ride.

AFFORDABLE
Rides are priced comparable to public transport and you can add people to your bookings for even less.


How does GoZone work?
- GoZone is an on-demand travel concept that takes multiple passengers heading in the same direction and books them into a shared vehicle. Using the app, input your address and we’ll match you with a vehicle going your way. We’ll pick you up on a nearby corner and drop you off within a short walk of your chosen destination. Now for the clever bit; our algorithms provide journey times that are comparable to a taxi and much more convenient than other modes of travel, making public transportation easier than ever before!

How long will I wait
- You'll always get an accurate estimate of your pick-up ETA before booking.
- You can also track your bus in real-time using the app.

Ratings and reviews

App will go through periods where it force closes upon opening...If you book a trip and there isn't enough money, card will be blocked. App will freeze while booking a trip. If you close out and come back it won't show a ride booked but if you try and book one it will say you already have. It will eventually show up but very annoying because you have no idea how long till ride. Ride times will go up and down. Drivers take breaks but yiu still get assigned to them. GPS accuracy is attrocious.

Horrific. I used it a bit and experienced long wait times and even longer drop off times for locations that were nearby, but those were fine. When a driver stops to take a smoke break while playing inappropriate songs in the car explicitly telling women to flash men, that is something else entirely. If this was a friend's car, that'd be different. This is a city service. Beware of reporting, they don't respond to emails and have outsourced their phones. Travel in groups and stay safe.

I loved the idea of this since I have a chronic condition that keeps me from driving and walking far. I used it to get to class and to drop me off at the train station. However, the app often messes up so that the driver doesn't see where to drop off. This makes them drop off in order that they were picked up which doesn't always make sense. (Ex. Dropping #1 off at a stop 20 minutes away first when #2 had a drop off 5 minutes away). I wish there was a better app and that we could schedule rides.
