Neat Uber/Lyft Metasearch App
Found a rather neat app called Bellhop. It's a metasearch app that lets you search and price both Uber and Lyft (along with a few other options) in a single interface. I've found it to work very well thus far (been using it for a month or so). Includes any discounts or promos that you get from both Uber and Lyft. No connection to the company, just a user.

On Google Maps, all I get is a wide range of prices (from Grand Central to LGA at the moment, giving $23-41 for UberPool), while Bellhop cites the exact price ($35.59, including the discount I'm currently getting from Uber, $43.63 regular price).

could be location-specific. and only LYFT is showing what discounts and codes are available. weird.

Notice that none of the Maps apps or such show the one-way rental car specials between NYC airports and Manhattan, if applicable. Didn't the apps endeavor to show all the available options? Mass transit, ride hailing, etc.

That's an incredibly niche application, however, and it's also not a door to door option.
