Re: Euber help please.

It used to be more straightforward, but now in Uber you double tap on the 
bottom of the screen where it says to meet your driver at the pick up point for 
your address. That opens up an area where among other things you will see call 
your driver or message driver. I message them all  the time this way. You are 
doing this after you have set up your trip.

I’ve thought of changing my profile photo to one of me holding my cane. This 
should work, with some drivers anyway. The exceptions would be those who 
mistook the cane for a pool cue.

I use lyft, not Uber, but they do have a text box where you can leave a note 
for the driver. I usually say something  like, "Blue jacket, white cane".
In most cases the driver does read the note and I have found them to be very 
responsive.

hi, everyone, I do exactly the same thing. Whether I am home or out, I always 
tell the driver that I am blind and I would appreciate it if he or she would 
blow their horn when they arrive. Take care everyone. Esther

RE: Euber help please.

2022-08-15 Thread Rob Armstrong
I have not found a way to include a note to the driver in the Uber app.  
Someone else may know how to do it.

 

If Lyft is available in your area, consider downloading the Lyft app and 
setting up an account.  When you are requesting a ride with Lyft, you reach a 
screen where you confirm or enter your pickup address.  There is also a field 
on that screen where you can include a note for the driver.  When you 
double-tap the button, you see some pre-defined entries for the beginning of 
the note such as In front of, Gate code, and others.  But there is also a 
choice for you to enter your own note.  I think you have 60 characters.  After 
you finish writing or dictating the note, you double-tap the “Add note for 
driver” button to save the note and include it in the ride request.

 

The next time you request a ride with Lyft, the note you wrote before is now 
one of the choices in the list of notes.  So you don’t have to write the same 
note every time.

Hi Jenny,

When scheduling a ride, you can type in a note. You can also contact the driver 
by phone. Even if you can do this through your account settings, I’m not 
certain the driver will see it. I generally call the driver when he/she gets 
close. You should be receiving updates as to When your driver will arrive. Hope 
this helps.

Best,

 

Les

Hi Jenny, once you have called for a ride, double tap on the drivers 
information and it will give you the option to call or text the driver. You may 
text the driver and suggest that when he gets to your location she can hit the 
horn a couple of times so you know where he is. You could tell him that you’re 
visually impaired and just need a little sound began to know where he is. Hope 
this helps
