How and Where to Download the Uber Driver App

 

 

 

The fact that Uber has made the process of requesting a “Taxi” seamless is probably the major contributor to the unprecedented growth of Uber globally. Being able to get and give rides by simply tapping a couple of buttons on your phone is pretty impressive. For people (Uber Drivers and Uber Passengers) that wish to start using the Uber app on their personal phones but have no idea where or how to get the application, don’t worry—it isn’t all that complicated. All you need to know is that you can only use an Android ,IOS or Windows phone.

Phone Requirements for IOS

For those with iPhones, the Uber application is only available on the 4S or newer models of the phone. If the model you use is older than that, you may want to consider investing in a new phone so that you can use the application.

Your IOS must be updated to the most recent one in order for the application to run properly. Your iPhone absolutely cannot be jail-broken; otherwise the application will not work. If your phone meets the requirements, follow the following steps:

 

Installation Steps

Step 1 – Return Your Uber-branded Phone

For Uber drivers, If you have an Uber-issued iPhone, your first step will be to return it to Uber (If you have your own phone, go to step 2). See the return process below:

  •         Fill out a form to request a return label.
  •         Wait till you get the label.
  •         When you get the label, attach it to a box and mail the Uber issued phone back to Uber.

 

Step 2 – Search for the Uber App

Now, you need to click on the “app store” application on your phone and search for the Uber app using the search bar .If you still are not able to find it, use our download links below: We have included links to both the Uber Passenger, and Uber Driver App for IOS below (in the event you need to use either one).

Uber Passenger App – https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/uber/id368677368?mt=8

 

Step 3 – Download and Test-run

This step is very easy, all you need to do is click the first search result and download the application. To confirm that the app is functioning properly, log into your driver account and test run the functions

Note – if you have not yet signed up as an Uber driver, see our blog post on How to Become an Uber Driver to get our sign-up code and review the detailed steps you need to get going.

 

Phone Requirements for Android

If you are using an android phone, you need not worry as the steps are not very different. Your operating system might need to be updated to the latest version for  the Uber app to function properly.

 

Installation Steps

Step 1 – Return Your Uber-branded Phone (if you have one)

For Uber drivers with an Uber provided android phone, your first step will be to return it to Uber (If you have your own phone, go to step 2). To avoid unnecessary repetitions, just follow the return protocol outlined for IOS users (in the IOS section)

 

 

Step 2 – Search for the Uber app

Next, just click on the Google play store icon on your phone and search for the Uber app using the search bar. If you still are not able to find it, use our download links below: We have included links to both the Uber Passenger, and Uber Driver App below (in the event you need to use either one).

Uber Driver App – https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ubercab.driver&hl=en

Uber Passenger App – https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ubercab&hl=en

 

Step 3 – Download and Test-run

This step is very easy, all you need to do is click the first search result and download the application. To confirm that the app is functioning properly, log into your driver account and test run the app.

The application is quite a clean-cut and easy to use one, too, so you don’t have to worry too much about getting confused or being unable to figure it out. Once you’ve used it for a few days, you’ll get the hang of it completely.

  1. I will need to travel from SEATAC to a port in Bellingham in October. I need a hotel and a driver to get me there. I have not used Uber before but I’m thinking this will be my best option for traveling from the airport to a fairy to Alaska.

    1. Uber is an on-demand app. You would have to request for an Uber as at the time you need one. You can also use scheduling apps like our very own Kommen app (http://www.trykommen.com) which allows you schedule an Uber ahead of time.
