Uber, the app that has revolutionized the world of taxis, has been updated this week to encourage drivers to opt for this service. As a user you may have had the opportunity to see and test this application, but the driver has a totally different experience and interface. From Uber they are aware that other services such as Lyft are gaining ground and it is crucial to have a good number of drivers in cities around the world to guarantee the success of the service.
The latest update of the Uber app for drivers aims to enable them to generate more money in each of your routes. In this new version, the information is presented more clearly and simply and drivers will get a better idea of how much money they can earn for each trip they make (discounting the percentage that Uber takes for each trip).
In addition, the app has begun to show areas where drivers have the possibility of finding more users, so they can avoid "downtime" and can continue to earn money during the day. It should also be noted that the app show important events in each city to alert drivers. For example, if there is a concert or a major football game, Uber workers will be able to see an alert to go to that place, where there will be a high demand for Ubers.
In this way, the users of the app are also benefited, since they will have an Uber quickly when they need it.
Great! Now the taxi drivers are lost ...
