Going the same way? Split the taxi.
SHRD finds people near you heading in the same direction. Share one taxi, halve the fare, and let the app do the maths.
On a computer? Scan to open SHRD on the App Store.
SHRD is a coordination app, not a taxi company. You ride in a regular taxi and pay the driver as usual.
Example: 9,800 Ft fare ÷ 2 riders = 4,900 Ft each

3Meet, ride, split
Agree on a meeting point in the chat, share the taxi, and see exactly who owes what. Rate each other when you arrive.
One taxi. Two riders. Half the fare.
Half the fare, every time you share
Ride the whole way together and you each pay half. The app shows the split before you get in.
When drop-offs differ, the app splits the shared part of the ride in half, and the rider who rides on alone pays for that stretch. In the app screen below, a 9,800 Ft estimate splits into 4,200 Ft and 5,600 Ft.
Two riders, same start, same destination
- Taxi fare (example)
- 9 800 Ft
- Riders
- ÷ 2
- Each pays
- 4 900 Ft
- Each saves vs. riding alone
- 9 800 − 4 900 = 4 900 Ft
Illustrative numbers, not a quote. Real fares depend on the taxi, the route and traffic.

Ratings after every ride
Riders rate each other, and ratings show up in the nearby list before you connect.

Your position is shared only while Start looking is on, and your visibility expires after 15 minutes.
Chat inside the app
Agree on the meeting point in the in-app chat before you get in the taxi.
SHRD is not a taxi company. It doesn't run background checks on users, book cars or handle payments. Take a licensed taxi, and use your judgement as you would with any stranger.
Good questions
What is SHRD?
SHRD is a free iOS and Android app for sharing taxis. It shows other users nearby who are heading the same way, so two people can take one taxi and split the fare. It's a coordination app, not a taxi service.
How much can I save?
If you and your ride partner share the whole route, you each pay about half the fare: for example, a 9,800 Ft fare becomes 4,900 Ft each. If your drop-offs differ, the shared part is split in half and whoever rides on alone pays for that stretch. The app shows the estimate before you ride.
How many people can share one ride?
Two. A match in SHRD is always between you and one other rider.
Does SHRD book or pay for the taxi?
No. You take a taxi the way you normally would. One of you pays the driver, and the other pays their share to that person. SHRD doesn't handle money and takes no cut.
Where does SHRD work?
Anywhere other SHRD users near you are looking for a ride the same way at the same time. The app is made in Hungary and works in English and Hungarian.
Who can see my location?
Only other signed-in SHRD users, and only while you have Start looking on. Your visibility switches off after 15 minutes. Details are in the Privacy Policy.
What if my ride partner doesn't show up?
Report it from the rating screen and choose No show. You can also block that person so you won't be matched again.
Is SHRD free?
Yes. SHRD is free to download on the App Store and Google Play, with no subscription or in-app purchases.
