## Description

HOWL-A-RIDE is the new way to book rides on Stony Brook University’s on-demand services.

With a few taps, book a ride in the app and our technology will pair you with other riders headed your way.

HOW IT WORKS:
- Book a ride by setting your pickup and dropoff locations, and indicating if you’re riding with an additional passenger.  
- You’ll receive an estimated pickup time as soon as you book. The estimated arrival time automatically updates as your vehicle heads your way 
- When your driver arrives, please promptly board the vehicle.
- You may share the ride with others or make a few stops along the way. Track your vehicle and share your status in real time directly from the app.  

SHARING YOUR TRIP:

Our algorithm matches riders traveling in similar directions, giving you the convenience of a direct ride with the efficiency of a shared system. 

RELIABLE:

See your driver’s information, track your ride in real time, and view your ride history, all from the app. After your trip, you’ll be prompted to leave a rating and optional feedback. 

Questions or feedback?
Access Contact Us, FAQs, and more directly from the app menu. 
If you’re enjoying your experience, we’d love a 5-star rating.
