How it works

Plan your shift instead of guessing — in three steps.

  1. 1

    Pick a day and hour

    Choose any day of the week and hour — now, or any time you're planning to drive. Jump to "Now" with one tap.

  2. 2

    See where demand clusters

    The map shades each NYC zone by how busy it has typically been at that day and hour, from millions of real public trips. A nearby zone that's much busier than yours gets flagged.

  3. 3

    Drive there with one tap

    Tap a zone — or long-press any spot — to open its details in the bottom sheet, then jump to your own Google Maps, Waze, or Apple Maps. tripvue points the way; you drive with the app you already use.

What the colors mean

Each zone is shaded by its typical demand for the day and hour you picked — red and orange are busier, pale is quiet.

Amenities on your shift

Turn these on from the Find nearby grid in the map's bottom sheet when you need them:

  • Relief standsFHV-usable park-and-break spots — park free for up to 1 hour (always follow posted signs).
  • EV chargerspublic NYC stations, DC-fast vs Level-2.
  • Restroomspublic restrooms, with open/closed and hours where known.
  • Train linessubway, LIRR, and Metro-North for orientation.

♿ Zones with higher wheelchair-requested (WAV) demand are flagged too.

The honest part

What you see is a typical pattern from history — not a guaranteeof rides or earnings. tripvue describes likely demand; it never promises money, and the WAV bonus is set and paid by the platforms, not by tripvue. It's an independent tool, not affiliated with Uber, Lyft, or the NYC TLC.
