Uber app review

Introduction

Uber by Uber Technologies, Inc. connects you to your own personal driver. This popular app is also featured on our list of the Best taxi apps for the iPhone.

For cities that subscribe to the service, if you're looking for a private driver you can find one with the help of this app. Locate and request a driver as well as let the driver know exactly where to pick you up. You're able to pinpoint a location for the driver so there is no wasted time in them trying to find you.

More Details

Not only will you locate and request a driver but the app will let you know an exact amount of time you'll be waiting for your driver to arrive.

Finish off the ride by charging the fare right to your credit card that you have on Uber's file. That means you don't even have to have the card on you. You'll be emailed a detailed receipt, plus you'll be able to view it in the app itself.

When it comes to requesting a car you have a selection to choose from - taxi, black car, SUV, or UBERx. You'll be able to view a fare estimate and if you've got a promo code to be used, you can enter it.

Uber was updated on Feb. 3, 2013 and has 112 customer ratings with an average rating of four out of five stars.

I found this to be a very simple and easy-to-navigate app. It gives you all the details you need and walks you through the entire process keeping you in the loop the whole time.

For: iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPod touch (3rd generation), iPod touch (4th generation), iPod touch (5th generation), and iPad with iOS 4.3 or later
