- Learn how to avoid Uber pickup point anxiety caused by the Uber GPS location error. Watch this video to learn how to change your pickup point location on the Uber map, for your safety and peace of mind.
To move the pickup point pin on an Uber or Lyft map, use your finger to move the map around to your desired pickup point location. If this does not work, you can also search for your pick up point location. For example, if the Uber pick point address is at 573 but, you need 560 and moving the map around does not work, you can search for the specific address 560 to find your precise pickup point location.
This happened to me before at the same hotel in Mexico. I was wondering why is the Uber driver on the other side of the street. I had to walk to meet him! Now I know why. Thanks for this
Oh really? Thank you for sharing your experience.
Thank you for bringing awareness to this. I hope it gets fixed so others won't experience this inconvenience
Happy to learn new things again Mr NCSqd! Moving the pin was intuitive but is not taught. Imagine having Uber Eats delivered your food at the wrong spot/ address? Thanks for sharing.
@Willie A, thank you for the feedback. You are correct it is not taught. Uber eats is one thing but, just imagine late night out, in an unsafe situation, in a foreign country, you don't speak the language and your Uber ride cannot find you? That can cause severe anxiety or panic attack. I have coined this term as "Uber Pickup Point Anxiety". I hope this term catches on with my viewers to drive home the point. Lol
Very useful information as usual.. However, You didn't say how you moved the pin on the screen to the desired location. Are you manually dragging it?
Yes I am. Thank you for the valuable feedback.
Good tutorial on how to direct your Uber pick up ❤
Thank you Sweets@Sharon. I hope you never find yourself in this situation but, if you do now you know what to do.
good information for uber user.
Thank you for your feedback. I downloaded the Lyft app and suffice to say, it works in a similar manner. The Lyft app also allows you to use your finger to drag the map around to set your pickup spot if it is different from your blue GPS location on the map.
