Managing Settings
NextRide allows you to easily manage your location, commute preferences, and trip planning settings to make your experience personalized and efficient. Learn how to modify these settings and get the most out of the app.
To access your settings, click on the Settings link next to the gear icon at any time. Your account information is saved to your device, so there's no need to sign up with an email. Please note that your account settings will be lost if you clear your web history and/or cookies since we do not save your information in a database.
Within Settings, you can manage your location preferences. We recommend selecting "Always use my location" to take full advantage of the location-based features.
Commute allows you to manage your Home and Work addresses, as well as any favorited routes and default route type filter (bus, rail, or both).
You can also customize your Trip Planner settings by setting your Travel Mode, Transit Type, Optimizations, and default distance and time settings.
Finally, you can modify the priority of what appears on the map when you open a new map session. If an option is unavailable, the next available option will be used.
