How do I select my current location on Uber?

How to Select Your Current Location on Uber

Uber provides a convenient way to request a ride from your current location. However, you may occasionally need to adjust your pickup point. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to select your current location on Uber:

Step 1: Open the Uber App

Start by launching the Uber app on your smartphone.

Step 2: Tap “Edit”

Once the app is open, look for the “Edit” button located next to your current pickup location. It’s usually a blue or gray button.

Step 3: Type a New Address or Drag the Pin

After tapping “Edit,” you can either type in a new pickup address or use the map to drag the pin to your desired location.

Step 4: Confirm Your Selection

Once you’ve chosen your new pickup spot, tap the “Confirm” button. This will set your current location as the starting point for your ride.

Step 5: Your Driver Will Meet You There

Your Uber driver will receive your updated pickup location and head to that spot to pick you up. Ensure you’re waiting at the designated location to avoid any delays or confusion.

Additional Tips:

• You can also use the “My Location” button in the app to automatically set your pickup location to your current GPS coordinates.
• If you need to make any changes to your pickup location after it’s been confirmed, simply tap the “Edit” button again and make the necessary adjustments.
• Be sure to check the estimated pickup time in the app, as it may vary depending on your new pickup location.
