# How do I contact potential car share matches on the Mobilityways app?

## About this guide This guide will walk you through the the process of messaging other members on the Mobilityways app.

#### **Important: As a security measure we are unable to provide members with mobile numbers of another member until a request to share has been accepted.**

### How to message another member from their journey details page

**Note:** The following process assumes that you have already **[added a journey](https://hub.liftshare.com/en/knowledge/how-to-add-a-journey?hsLang=en)** to your account. If you don't already have a journey on your account please make sure you **[add a journey](https://hub.liftshare.com/en/knowledge/how-to-add-a-journey?hsLang=en)** first.

 

1\. Click **My Journeys** at the bottom of the screen:

2\. From the My journeys page, click **Find matches** against the journey you want to find a match for.

![Find matches](https://hub.liftshare.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Find%20matches.png?width=162&height=360&name=Find%20matches.png)

 

3\. This will load your matches for your journey. Once you've found a **suitable match** click on their **View**  **journey** to open their **journey detail page**.

6\. Your message will then be submitted and your potential **match will be notified** that they have a new message on their account. A record of all messages you send to other members can be viewed from the **Inbox** tab at the bottom of the page**.** From here it's easy to send follow up messages and even **Ask to share** once you are happy to form a team.

### How are members notified when I send messages?

 

When you send a message to another member, Liftshare will **immediately notify** this member via email and push notification that they have a new message. If after **5 hours** the member does not reply to your message, another notification is sent. Liftshare sends further reminders to the member after **24 hours** and **48 hours,** if they have still not responded. 

**Important:** As a **security measure** we are unable to provide members with **contact details** of another member until a request to share has been accepted. If a member has a contact number associated with their account, then these details will be included in the confirmation email sent to both parties **when a request to share has been accepted**.

### Got more questions? We're here
