Uber Launches New Rider App In India

Riders can now enjoy smarter and more personalised Uber experience, according to the company’s recent statement.

 

Uber has recently launched a new app for riders in India and around the globe, across Android and iOS platforms. According to a recent press release, Uber riders can now enjoy faster, smarter, and more personalised Uber experience on the new app, which is being touted to have been rebuilt completely from the ground up.

According to the company, the new app comes with a new design, clearer vehicle options with upfront pricing view, smarter pickups to help reduce ETA, and personalised in-app shortcuts.

Speaking in depth about the features, the new Uber app is said to have been reimagined keeping the riders’ destinations in mind. Also, a newly released press statement mentions that the new Uber app is capable of learning from riders’ routines. Frequent riders will see “shortcuts” that predict where one could be headed. This means riders can get moving with just one tap.

Additionally, the new app allows riders to save locations that they frequently travel to, while they can get to know how drivers are rating them. This means that, now, a rider’s rating will be displayed right under his/her name in the app’s menu.

The app also brings in more enhanced features in order to improve experience how pickups work in Uber, while riders can also sync their calendar with Uber. With this, riders meetings and appointments will automatically appear as “shortcuts,” saving them the hassle of digging through another app to find the right address.

“Uber is based on a simple concept: push a button, get a ride. What started as a way to request premium cars, now offers a range of products, making millions of rides possible across  the world. While providing seamless on-demand transportation for riders remains our central focus, the  newly designed rider app is unique as we rebuilt it from ground up to deliver a much faster and improved interface for riders. We are excited that riders across India will now have this superior experience.” – Apurva Dalal, Head of Engineering, Uber India.
