Uber has a new senior mode
The new tool offers a simplified app layout and support from family members to help seniors maintain independence and mobility.
The ride-hailing company is introducing senior accounts, which allow family members to help set up, track, and pay for rides, and “simple mode,” a senior-friendly version of the app for older adults who use it on their own.
To set up a senior account, existing Uber users can add a senior adult to their family profile in the app. The head of the family profile can book rides for a senior rider, handle payments, and set monthly spending limits.
