Introducing big updates, informed by your experiences

New updates, informed by you

This winter, our updates will help you save time and stay informed while streamlining your experience, whether you drive or deliver using Uber.

Making earning even easier

  • Get the option to block riders

    Now you can take more control of your experience by choosing to block riders whom you rate with 2 or 3 stars. Once you block a rider, you’ll no longer receive requests from them. The app already automatically blocks you from receiving trip requests from any riders whom you rate with one star.

  • Enjoy faster, more precise pickups

    Our latest map update features more real-world details to help you and riders find each other faster. Riders will now get more-accurate walking directions to pickup spots, including street-level details in pickup areas such as crosswalks, walking paths, and more.

  • Keep an eye out for Uber Business Black trips

    We’re launching an additional type of trip—Uber Business Black—for riders who are using their business profile. If you’re eligible for Uber Black trips, you may now also see requests for Uber Business Black.

Giving drivers more transparency

Get a clearer breakdown of weekly customer fares

This view shows where every dollar a rider pays is going. You’ll see what percentage goes where, from take-home pay to fees and government-mandated commercial auto insurance, all in the app.

Improving guidance and navigation

Updates that help you keep moving

Know where to go after dropoff

Avoid making a wrong turn at the start of a trip with new route previews. You’ll now see a portion of your dropoff route as you approach the pickup point, to help you never miss a turn.

Report speed enforcement

Soon you and fellow drivers and couriers will be able to report speed cameras, police presence, and other speed enforcements. Once one of these is reported by a driver, other drivers approaching it will be able to see and confirm its location.
