What if you had even more trip options to choose from?
Trip Radar is a new feature that gives you and other drivers a chance to see and show interest in all products requests happening nearby.
Trip Radar shows you extra options, and you’ll continue to get individual requests, too.
How Trip Radar works

					
				
Find requests
When you’re not on a trip, you may see an alert for Trip Radar in the driver app. Tap on it to check out a selection of all products requests happening nearby.

					
				
Show interest in trip requests
You can tap on any requests you’re interested in and select as many as you want.
Remember to always use Trip Radar safely, if you ever feel distracted when interacting with the Uber App then we recommend pulling over to a safe place to interact with your phone.

					
				
Get a match
Other drivers will have access to the list too, so you won’t get all your picks.
Matching is aimed at minimising average wait times for drivers and riders. The more you tap, the more likely you are to match with an option that works for you.
