How do I stop sharing my location on Uber?

How to Deactivate Location Sharing with Uber Drivers

Uber’s location sharing feature allows drivers to conveniently track your whereabouts and provide accurate pickup and drop-off services. However, if you prefer to maintain privacy or limit location access, you can easily disable this feature through the Uber app.

Step 1: Access the Settings Menu

• Open the Uber app on your mobile device.
• Tap on the three-line menu icon in the top-left corner.
• Select “Settings” from the menu.

Step 2: Navigate to Privacy Settings

• Within the Settings menu, scroll down and locate the “Privacy” section.
• Tap on “Privacy” to view your location sharing options.

Step 3: Disable Location Sharing

• Under the “Share Location with Your Driver” section, you will see a toggle switch.
• Tap on the switch to toggle it to the “Off” position.

Once you have disabled the location sharing feature, Uber drivers will no longer have access to your real-time location. Your privacy will be protected, and you will have complete control over when and with whom you share your location.

Note: Disabling location sharing may affect the accuracy of pickup and drop-off services. It is recommended to only disable this feature if you are comfortable with potential delays or miscommunications.
