Oh, my bad. I guess the few times that I rode with people using Uber they didn't tip at all... no cash changed hands. I just assumed that they were tipping from inside the app. Bad assumption. And as for the downgrading of people who do not tip: there have been plenty of posts about this online, as well as plenty of posts that drivers don't want to ask for tips explicitly for fear of being downgraded, plus posts that people should tip Uber drivers, plus other posts that you should not tip Uber drivers. From all this, it seems that tipping (viewed either as a way of businesses to avoid giving real prices or as as way for customers to show appreciation or both) is not a clear issue. Drivers would like tips, esp. after Uber cut the pay rates. Uber itself takes no side, but only says that tipping is allowed (how gracious of them). Bill
