Uber rolls out biggest app redesign in years, now customized for each rider

Uber announced a comprehensive global revamp of its app, adding a slew of new features to help riders go anywhere effortlessly.

Uber’s redesigned app has been made intuitive, customized to the individual preferences of each rider, offering easy access to all services, consistent experiences, and smooth flows through the booking process. Starting right at the redesigned homescreen, the new Uber app makes it way easier to book rides, taking into account most preferred destinations and products for each rider.

The list of updates that will show on the app as a result of the new App Redesign rollout include:

A new homescreen

The homescreen experience has been simplified to help riders book trips more easily, with fewer taps, right from the get-go. The new app also features a “Services” tab as a one stop shop to find all product offerings available to riders in their city – from a nearby Moto to Auto, Intercity, Rentals, Reserve, Connect and more. The new “Activity Hub” helps keep track of past and upcoming rides all in one place.

Now, with Live Activities on the lock screen, riders can easily track the live progress of their ride. They can receive critical updates like vehicle details, the latest ETA (expected time of arrival) information, and trip status – all on the Lock Screen without opening the app.

This feature is being rolled out for iOS devices, and will be available on Android devices soon.

Riders will need to ensure their device is up to date with the latest available software. This includes the latest version of the Uber app to experience the redesigned app and its new features.
