📝 About this app
The Beep App is an affordable ride-sharing app for college students. It provides a very simple and easy way for people to get rides around their college town. Riders are provided a simple screen that allows them to find a ride in seconds. Drivers (beepers) are given a simple interface where they manage all the riders in their queue.
Riders get the benefit of finding a driver with a short wait, low cost rides, estimated time of arrivals, push notifications of their driver's status.… View full description on the official store →
