About this app

Think of SMART Flex as a whole new way to get around the Detroit Area — a ridesharing service that’s smart, easy, affordable, and green.

With a few taps, book an on-demand ride in the app and our technology will connect you with transit headed your way. No detours, no delays.

How it works:

I just started using this while my car is in the shop. The concept of the app is nice but there's a lot of issues. I've had to cancel so many rides because they would be selected for the next day and not the same day. I'll select the "today" option and scroll to find the time without realizing it scrolled into the next day. If the ride hours are 6am-11pm for the city I'm in, why am I only able to select hours for the same day around 6am before it turns into the next day options at 7am?

I have better success calling to schedule rides than using the app. The info captured in the app does not sync with the driver's app causing riders to be stranded or given wrong information. When I call, there's no issues with my scheduled rides. Please fix the app. Using the mobile device's location needs enhancing when scheduling a ride out of the zone. Caregivers outside of the zone schedule for riders in zone. This should be accounted for by the app. It has the potential to be very good.

I want to give this service a good review. However, the app won't let me do any rides. What use is it? Keeps telling me no rides available and I cannot schedule. Is this what my millage goes to? Useless services that don't work? Cons: • Pressing "Back" causes the app to relocate the GPS. • Any time an address is entered, it removes the ability to schedule. Pressing "back" causes the aforementioned bug. • Very bad for ride "planning." If it worked in the first place.
