OpenRide

OpenRide is an Android application that bridges Google Maps and ride-sharing apps.

Instead of manually copying a destination from Google Maps and searching for it again inside a ride-hailing app, OpenRide lets users share a location directly from Google Maps and launch their preferred ride app with the destination already filled in.
