Friends & Family Ride Tracking: The Safety Feature Every Car Service Needs

Why Ride Tracking Matters

When your teenager takes a car to the airport, when your elderly parent rides to a medical appointment, when your spouse has a late-night return from a business trip — the question is always the same: "Did they arrive safe?"

UNIQ RYDE's Friends & Family feature answers that question automatically.

How It Works

  • Add contacts: Add family members or friends to your UNIQ RYDE account
  • Automatic sharing: When you book a ride, selected contacts receive live tracking automatically
  • Real-time GPS: They see your chauffeur's location, ETA, and trip status on a map
  • Trip completion: Contacts receive a notification when you arrive at your destination
  • In-app communication: Message your contacts directly within the app during the trip

Use Cases

  • Parents: Track your children's rides to school, activities, or the airport
  • Spouses: Know when your partner has landed and is on the way home
  • Executive assistants: Track your boss's ride to the meeting and alert the client of their ETA
  • Event coordinators: Track VIP arrivals to your event in real-time

Book Rides for Others

You can also book rides on behalf of your friends and family. The rider doesn't even need the app — they receive pickup details via text, and your account is charged.

Set Up Friends & Family

Open the UNIQ RYDE app, go to Friends & Family, and add your contacts. It takes 30 seconds.
