On Wednesday, Lyft rolled out its version of Uber Express Pool: Shared Saver. Think of it as an on-demand mini-bus. The app gives you walking directions to meet a driver already carrying or on their way to pick up other passengers. After being dropped off, you might also have to walk a few blocks to your destination.

Uber's version of the feature launched nationwide a year ago, so the concept isn't entirely new, especially for people who flip between the two apps. (Now there are loyalty programs that encourage users to stick to a single app.) Lyft is already offering riders in Denver and San Jose the Shared Saver option, with other cities to follow.

About two years ago Lyft tested a service called Shuttle in San Francisco and Chicago. That was focused more on commuters with set pick-up and drop-off points during weekday rush hours. It was basically a modified bus route, and it's no longer in service. A Lyft spokesperson said they learned a lot from the program and applied those lessons to Shared Saver. Now, the feature is here to save you money, and help you get your steps in.
