New feature: your countdown timer

Many of you recently took the time out of your busy schedule to give us some feedback on new feature requests. We wanted to let you know the latest news – and the improvements we’re making as a result!  

That it’s difficult to know when the five minute cancellation period has finished, which potentially leads to wasted time and missed trips.

We’ve created a new feature in the app to help minimise the chance of you wasting your time. The new in-app hourglass timer will make it easier to manage the five minute cancellation period by clearly counting down the time.

Make sure you’ve got the newest version of the app downloaded and you’re good to go!

We really value your feedback, so keep it coming and we’ll keep working to improve your Uber experience.
