As per the latest update, iPhone app users will be able to track the live progress of the ride booked including vehicle details, the latest ETA information, and trip status right on their lockscreen. According to the official statement, “For iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max users, the progress of the Uber ride will also be displayed in the Dynamic Island while your iPhone is unlocked, so you can get important details with just a glance, even when you are using other apps.”

In addition to this, Uber has also revamped the homescreen for users. A new “Services” tab has been added on the home screen that is a “one-stop shop to find all of the rides and delivery offerings available in your city”. It also shows nearby e-scooters, dinner, flowers, cocktails, and more.
The new “Activity Hub” now tracks the past and upcoming rides along with Eats orders in one place. To give a more personalised experience, users will now be able to see “Saved Places” whenever users click on the “where to?” option. They will also see suggestions for destinations and ride types based on past trips and more likely destinations. Uber says that it will also share personalized recommendations for ways to plan and save in your city, based on how they use Uber.
As per the blogpost, “For example, if you typically ride Uber Green, it will likely be the first option you see; and we’ll also show you other offerings for zero-emission rides. Or, if you typically Reserve your rides in advance, we’ll display other pre-planned options on the homescreen that you may not know about.”
