Ratings and reviews

I don't know if it's the area I live in or what, but I have had multiple terrible experiences with this app. One was during a large concert and I thought, okay, they were just overwhelmed, but just now on a normal Saturday morning, I watched my driver drive right past me without even thinking of stopping and it was taking forever to find a new driver. Even when working well, wait times are very long even at the priciest option. Quicker and easier to bother friends for a ride.

For some reason, the app uses the ringtone volume on your phone to play music when a driver is assigned to your ride request. It should only use the notification volume to make sounds as it is not a phone-calling app. I have set all notifications from the app to be silent, but it still makes noise, which is something I cannot allow on my phone. Please fix it to use the notification volume like all non-phone apps are required to do

Don't bother trying to get a "wait and save", just wait for the fees to change yourself as it has a good chance of being ignored by drivers that are supposedly 4-6 minutes away. Don't spend the extra for price lock, it just deters drivers. I just spent over 2 hours for a "45 minute wait" that never even got picked up. Then they'll try to charge you a cancellation fee when you decide to finally give up. No support, just revolving FAQ bs. 2 stars only because most of the drivers are great.
