I'm glad that there are so many other people that never used an Uber before, I literally felt like I'm the 1% among friends. Very nice explanation video!
I actually appreciate this since I never had a smartphone until a month ago and I never used Uber. I could have probably figured it out but it's nice to have instructions. Thanks.
@@BlessedForever888 That's kind of crazy that you didn't get a smartphone until a month ago, yet you seem to be very good with computers. Like ever since 2014, it feels like everyone has a smartphone. So that's why I'm a little surprised. 😅
That was one of the best designed RUclips videos I’ve ever seen; right to the point, no fluff which wastes our time, easy to understand. Well done. Thanks
Omg I thought I was the only one with this anxiety needing an Uber for the first time. But I see all the comments a lot of people are in my shoes too. But after watching this video just gave me such a relief. The app is actually really easy to use. Thank you for this video You're much appreciated 👍
Thank you so much, this will make my trip to a big city easier. Never had to use Uber by myself. I have always been with someone who has navigated through this process. This has helped lower my anxiety level.
Thank you for this well paced and thorough tutorial. I just sent it to my parents who can't drive at the moment due to injuries. It is going to be such a relief for them to be able to still get around. They will be testing out the Uber experience next week for the first time.
@@M1978-p8jThis isn't common sense. There's A LOT of people out there who never ordered an uber before. I've been driving my own car for 25+ years and never taken an uber in my life. I had to watch this a video more than once to understand how the app worked.
We are 70 years old and have never used Uber, this decreases the anxiety I have about it. My Tesla was in the shop for a few days and Tesla sent me some Uber Credits, I didn't have a clue how they worked, so I bummed rides with neighbors until they could get me a loaner, I had to bum a ride 45 miles to the Tesla Service Center to pick up the loaner. After arriving the Service Tech asked how I got there and I told him, and he said I sent you some Uber credits ($100/day). I felt like an idiot as I gave my neighbor $50. And that's how Tesla handles any roadside breakdowns/accidents or issues. So I have downloaded the app and am ready to go. Is the tipping handled the same as say restaurants, as a percentage of the fare? What's considered a GOOD tip? Thank you so much.
Thanks for an informative video. One thing that was missing was if you can specify a pickup location other than your current location. For example, you mentioned you can schedule a pickup in the future, but how do I do this if I'm not at the location where I will want to be picked up? How do I specify a pickup location other than where I'm currently at?
Had to use uber for the first time yesterday. Watching this after the fact, but I enjoyed my first ever ride even though I was nervous and paranoid ASF to get the uber to take me home.
I'm about to use my first Uber ride and have no experience with how you get the ride , or pay for the ride, or estimate how much it will cost. This helped so much! Thanks!
My family and I are to Atlanta in two weeks and I have to Uber. I’ve never used it before and I felt like I was the only person who never used thanks for the videos I’m not as nervous about it
Thanks the first and last time I used Uber by myself I accidentally marked the top of the street as my pick up instead of where I was standing. The poor driver was calling me trying to figure out where I was standing. My phone was on 1% and I was stranded. I was so grateful he didn't cancel the ride.
Thank you for doing such a great job explaining this . On my phone the picture looked pretty small I just wish it was a little bit bigger so I can actually see it
Thanks for pointing this out! I was curious about fares for a future ride and there was a $29 minimum fare, which I couldn't understand. After reading your comment, I looked at the fare for immediate pickup and the minimum fare went down to $6.90. Whew!
My grandma recently had to stop driving, due to her age, I'm going to teach her how to use Uber so she doesn't have to be stuck at home all the time. I really appreciate this tutorial video. Thank you.
I appreciate this video, thank you. 🙂 Easy to use the app even for first timers but the reason I watched the video is because of those numbers next to 🙎 icon. And that was covered. But another thing I was hoping that was included is that, if the price covers more than 1 passenger? I guess yes since you mentioned the passenger can split the fare. 🤔
This is confusing to A LOT of people! It just shows a 4 for passengers, instead of maybe saying "For Up To 4 passangers" or even asking: "How many passengers?". Instead, it looks they think you have 4 in your party OR that others will be in the car with you. I know a couple of people who were confused by this and tried to adjust it and then just gave up! It would be SO EASY to clarify.
Ikr dude that’s why I looked up a guide on Uber because I assumed the 4🙎 meant that there would either 1. Be four people in the car with me, or 2. There were four people ahead of me in the Uber que lol
I used you r video to assist me in taking my first Uber ride and it helped me as great deal. My app was slightly different in a few ways, but your instructions made it easy. Thank you.
Thank u so much for sharing I will traveling by myself for first time and I really needed to know how this service works! Now I know I don't have be stranded at airport
Yes the price for the total trip, but you can tip them too You already put your pickup location in and drop off location, the price is based on that, and it shouldn’t change once you accept and click it
Lyft is so much easier to use..- I’ve talked to 5 or 6 people who’ve agreed….Now that Uber is using Tesla’s I’ll attempt to give them a try, your video should help..
I am 62 years old I have never tried to get a uber before my anxiety level has hit the ceiling I put my card number in now I am lost I didn't see anything that said anything about getting a ride to where I need to go I need help bad
Does the phone icon only appear once the driver is in transit? I scheduled an Uber for an event on Friday and it’s a concert venue so I imagine it’s going to be chaotic. I would like one way to communicate with him
I would like to see a photo of the car and driver before choosing my ride. IT has been 50/50 for me. I have gotten everything from an old minivan with no air-con in FL to a new SUV all for the same price so this needs to change.
Okay, so you want to see the car, fine. There's no reason to see the driver beforehand. That just leads to racism, sexism, and any other "ism" you can think of. Some customers will start saying they don't want a driver because the driver is Latino, or Black, or Asian, or Arab, or White, or looks of a certain religion, or is a woman, etc. We don't need all that.
Honestly its their prerogative if they dont want a certain driver. Maybe women dont want a uber with a male driver or etc. no matter how u think about it people have personal reasons and as such can do what they want jeesh.
It’s not built in For me I gave the tip options 1$ , 2$ or 5$, I don’t remember if there is a no tip option (I live in AB, Canada so this Canadian dollars)
In Brisbane Australia, Uber has become completely useless. The rate of drivers accepting a ride, keep you waiting, only to cancel 1-5 minutes later for something better is rampant, seriously inconveniencing the customer. I have multiple friends and colleagues who do not use anymore because they dont want to stand around for 30 minutes hoping for a ride when cabs/competitors are readily available. And just recently I cancelled on a driver whom after waiting for 7 minutes made a series of wrong turns changing the wait time to *15 minutes* and I was charged 8 DOLLARS for *him inconveniencing me,* but drivers cancel relentlessly with no penalty. Uber was once great and has now become extremely painful to use. Uninstalled.
Watching this because the first time I went on Uber everything went smoothly. So this next time threw me for a loop. I waited 30 mins while trying to figure out why this app wasn’t working. The last part wasn’t working! I confirmed trip, confirmed pick up spot but inside of saying that a driver may be coming it stayed on the maps and didn’t do anything. I figure no one was available to drive me but the app wasn’t telling me anything It really bugs me, I’m mad and want to rant sorry
I always pick Uber x it's cheaper I don't understand why anybody would pick the more expensive ride I just got done with a ride awesome service very satisfied
It's actually good they don't have that. Because some customers will start acting racist, or sexist, or not liking people for anything else they perceive. We already have enough hate in the world, don't need it when ordering an Uber.
Actually you can. Once you are matched with a driver, you will see the Driver's profile name, Pic, rating, etc. If you don't like what you see you can cancel the trip (within a minute or two) without being charged a cancelation fee. Once that trip is canceled you need to start the process over again and hope you get matched to a different driver.
@@GreenLine4444 I sort of agree & disagree @ the same time. If I want a ride, as a guy of course I'd prefer the driver to be a young female rather than an old male!! but of course there's always some a**hole who'd act like a jerk & make her uncomfortable!!
I try to use Uber on a tablet but it kept saying no good. I gave up, thinking that it is probably because it is a tablet, not a cell phone? Is this true?
I’ve never used Uber in my life and this decreases the anxiety I have about it. Thank you 😊

Tip: Schedule a ride right before you're ready. If you schedule ahead it nearly doubles the price.

This will actually be helpful for my mum so thanks I suppose.
Great video. But my Uber app doesn't look the same as the one in the video. I don't have the Ride, Food, Reserve etc. icons.....
Really well done with one exception. The last step was to leave a driver rating and a tip. It didn't show how to enter the tip amount.
We use various taxi type services. This video really helps.
After drop off, will the same uber pick me up back or I need to request a new Uber ride?
Lol
You’d have to request a new ride to be picked up.

Is the price for the Uber for one person or for all passengers
Thanks, Tech Insider, for the great presentation.
Thank u so much for sharing I will traveling by myself for first time and I really needed to know how this service works! Now I know I don't have be stranded at airport
Thanks a million. Well explained and easy to follow.
Do you need constant internet connection or just when booking the trip?
Yes, good question! Like maybe home wifi to book, some mobile internet along ride, and destination wifi for end?
Okay thanks tmr is my first day using Uber and not I feel good about it! 💯
Great video! Thank you for sharing!
Excellent intro. Appreciate it.
Just used it on our vacation. It’s awesome!
tomorrow gonna start using it for the 1st time in my life uber nerve wrecking stress😢
Just to clarify, is the price displayed the total for the trip? Meaning it will change the further or closer the destination is?
Yes the price for the total trip, but you can tip them too
You already put your pickup location in and drop off location, the price is based on that, and it shouldn’t change once you accept and click it
Is it true that the Uber drivers don't really wait for you like for example 5 or a 2 minute wait they would expect you to be outside correct?
Correct they want you heels to curb
1:44 Why does the image seem to show that Uber Black is the cheapest at around $15 (unless I'm not seeing it right)?
Easier to just call a taxi.
Very well done video. Thanks.

Still never used uber, will next week to the airport. Thanks for easing the anxiety
How did it go? My upcoming airport ride will be be about an hour on an uber and I'm so anxious about everything that could go wrong!
What if I have luggage? Do I just tell them to pop the trunk?
Could you do a video about how to add and request favorite drivers?
I am 62 years old I have never tried to get a uber before my anxiety level has hit the ceiling I put my card number in now I am lost I didn't see anything that said anything about getting a ride to where I need to go I need help bad

Great job the best explanation 👍

My challenge is the pick up location is often not close to where I am, and I don’t know how to change the pick up location to exactly where I am.

you mention destination but not starting point till the end..when do you enter starting point.?
How do I find one with a carseat? I don't see any options...
A very good concept introduced
Do you have to give a tip or is it built into the fair?
