Lyft Driver ٤+

I have seen lyft from just few landing pages to now a mega app. Good app improvement along these years. Kudos to the developers. The latest release have some minor trigger issues that may need to be fixed. 1. The app sometimes automatically put you offline after you just open the app and started working. If not focused you may not realize it and waste time waiting for trip while just got logged out by the system. 2. When you are completing a ride and is about to swipe and drop a customer, and it coincides with an automatic new ride about to be added to the queue , the app will auto reject the new queue ride and throw this error “something wrong happened..” 3. When you are in an AirPort Express pickup lot. For example when you are at LaGuardia airport the app will display a text saying “you’re in the JFK queue “. JFK is a complete different airport. 4. Is it really necessary that the driver always have to send your predefined message before being able to write his customized message to the client? I don’t think so. If you need more info I will be happy to provide error screenshots. I will stop driving soon and probably start my SWE career because I just graduated. (You can grab me while i am still going through interviews. Or maybe one of your competitors will offer me a role.) Anyway it has been a pleasure seeing your evolution!

Lyft. Please….use the “RELEVANT,” ACCURATE LYFT APPS, with DIGNITY, and RESPECT to the Lyft drivers, I started work hard in driving, then, your Lyft navigation system or GPS. In the place of pick-up, and I got my passenger; sitting inside my car. Then, your “ARRIVE.” To the area, it won’t pop-up in my cellphone, the same thing with the “SLIDE TO DROP-OFF, passenger. It’s because I’m a nice person, with compassion with others needs, and cares to people; I still continue gave them ride to their designated destination. And “I END UP FOR NOT GET PAY FOR MY SERVICE.” For my miles, distance, Bonus, and Time. I can’t live like this kind of situation almost everyday problem happened in your “ LYFT SYSTEM.” I don’t know, if the Microsoft that your company use or the area of driving is blocked by trees or building. I am new in your company in just two weeks driving, and encountering all of these problems. ATTENTION LYFT: “ LOVE YOUR DRIVERS.” Because we need each other to survive in this world. Thank you. For your kindness and consideration to your self-employed drivers. I thank all my passengers for rating me an ( 5 ), stars driving performance. May the good lord blessed us all. AMEN!

The app collects sensitive data including & up to ur contacts. Why does Lyft want that? Total invasion of privacy. Drivers you CAN OPT OUT of the Arbitration agreement Section 17. That way if you want to participate in a class action suit you can.
-I as a former driver had the worst time with the gps. I was told the drop off would be on the left at times when the drop off was at the right. As a new driver I didn’t know there were designated pick up areas for passengers & drivers and I got lost a lot & ended up having to cancel rides cause I couldn’t find the passenger . The app should tell both drivers & riders to go to the designated LYFT rideshare pick up area & it should be clearly physically marked. I’ve been to stadiums where no one knows where the Lyft pick up area was and they used a bar address that was nearby. The gps is just crazy in general wants you to zig zag a lot instead of taking you down a main street. There’s too much for me to write but on the positive side of things…. I did like the fact that Lyft does show the amount of the ride & how long the ride is. Uber doesn’t do that. You just take a risk of taking a crappy low ball ride. I like the fact that Lyft offers cheaper rental options too. I like that you can talk to a real person with Lyft if you do use the flex ride option. I like that you can be unmatched. Thanks for all those things.
