    We are 70 years old and have never used Uber, this decreases the anxiety I have about it. My Tesla was in the shop for a few days and Tesla sent me some Uber Credits, I didn't have a clue how they worked, so I bummed rides with neighbors until they could get me a loaner, I had to bum a ride 45 miles to the Tesla Service Center to pick up the loaner. After arriving the Service Tech asked how I got there and I told him, and he said I sent you some Uber credits ($100/day). I felt like an idiot as I gave my neighbor $50. And that's how Tesla handles any roadside breakdowns/accidents or issues. So I have downloaded the app and am ready to go. Is the tipping handled the same as say restaurants, as a percentage of the fare? What's considered a GOOD tip? Thank you so much.

How do I specify a pickup location other than where I'm currently at?

    I appreciate this video, thank you. 🙂 Easy to use the app even for first timers but the reason I watched the video is because of those numbers next to 🙎 icon. And that was covered. But another thing I was hoping that was included is that, if the price covers more than 1 passenger? I guess yes since you mentioned the passenger can split the fare. 🤔

      This is confusing to A LOT of people! It just shows a 4 for passengers, instead of maybe saying "For Up To 4 passangers" or even asking: "How many passengers?".
      Instead, it looks they think you have 4 in your party OR that others will be in the car with you.
      I know a couple of people who were confused by this and tried to adjust it and then just gave up!
      It would be SO EASY to clarify.

      Okay, so you want to see the car, fine. There's no reason to see the driver beforehand. That just leads to racism, sexism, and any other "ism" you can think of. Some customers will start saying they don't want a driver because the driver is Latino, or Black, or Asian, or Arab, or White, or looks of a certain religion, or is a woman, etc. We don't need all that.

      Actually you can. Once you are matched with a driver, you will see the Driver's profile name, Pic, rating, etc. If you don't like what you see you can cancel the trip (within a minute or two) without being charged a cancelation fee. Once that trip is canceled you need to start the process over again and hope you get matched to a different driver.

    Watching this because the first time I went on Uber everything went smoothly. So this next time threw me for a loop.
    I waited 30 mins while trying to figure out why this app wasn’t working. The last part wasn’t working! I confirmed trip, confirmed pick up spot but inside of saying that a driver may be coming it stayed on the maps and didn’t do anything. I figure no one was available to drive me but the app wasn’t telling me anything
    It really bugs me, I’m mad and want to rant sorry

    Just to clarify, is the price displayed the total for the trip? Meaning it will change the further or closer the destination is?

      Yes the price for the total trip, but you can tip them too
      You already put your pickup location in and drop off location, the price is based on that, and it shouldn’t change once you accept and click it

    Do you have to give a tip or is it built into the fair?

    • @katiedyck5407

      It’s not built in
      For me I gave the tip options 1$ , 2$ or 5$, I don’t remember if there is a no tip option
      (I live in AB, Canada so this Canadian dollars)
