Help & Guidance

Getting started

Set up in three simple steps

1

Create or join a liftshare

Start by creating a new liftshare group if you're the organiser, or join an existing one using an invite code from a colleague.

2

Set up your profile

Add your nickname so your liftshare group knows who you are. This helps everyone stay connected.

3

Start scheduling

Set your regular driving days and start coordinating with your group. The app will track everything automatically.

Core concepts

How Shiftlare works

Schedules

Your schedule shows which days you're driving over the next two weeks. Set your regular driving days and the app displays them in a clear calendar view. Everyone in your liftshare can see who's driving when.

Cover requests

Can't drive on your scheduled day? Create a cover request to let your group know you need someone to step in. Group members get notified instantly and can offer to cover. Once someone accepts, they become the driver for that day.

Credits

Your schedule is already balanced, so regular driving doesn't affect credits. Credits only change when cover happens: if someone covers for you, you lose a credit and they gain one. Over time, debts balance out naturally as people cover for each other across the group.
