We Asked. You Told Us. Now Let Us Take Action.

In the fall of last year, we sent out a survey to all drivers and delivery people across the U.S. and Canada requesting feedback on what is and isn’t working on the Uber app. Regardless of what the feedback looked like, we made a promise to you we would release the full survey results. Nearly 100,000 of you responded and provided input.

Today, we are releasing the full U.S. results, as well as breaking out the key areas below you’ve identified that you’re most dissatisfied and satisfied with. 

We also want to take a moment and recognize the challenges and uncertainty many of you’ve faced over the last year. You shared you are most worried about financial difficulties and your physical health and wellness during this time. This past year has been hard for everyone, but we know that has been especially true for drivers and delivery people. We thank you for everything you do to help support your neighbors and communities. 

Seventy percent of you said you think Uber has either done enough or gone above and beyond for drivers during the pandemic. We will continue to do our part and help ensure you have the most up-to-date information on when and where to get the COVID-19 vaccine, access to health and safety supplies, and resources on government assistance via the COVID-19 Hub in the Uber app.

We will be following up soon with details on a virtual town hall to go over the results and discuss actions the company is taking to help improve your experience on Uber.

Please make sure to check your email and website for the invite. We look forward to seeing you there!
