How To Contact Your Uber Driver Before They Pick You Up?

Were you standing on the wrong side of the road when your Uber showed up and the driver could not see you? You can simply click some icons in the Uber application and give them a call. Reaching out to your Uber driver on the phone is very simple whether you’re using the application on an iPhone or Android.

As soon as you have been paired with a ride and you are waiting for the car to appear, decide if you wish to send an SMS or call the driver directly. The latter option is always a safer choice when you have to contact them asap.

How Can I Contact My Uber Driver?

If you wish to send a written message, enter it in the bar reading, “Any pickup notes?”

To call your driver, simply click the phone icon at the bottom left corner of the display and then confirm that you wish to place the call.

If you have to reach an Uber driver on the phone after a trip has been completed for whatever reason, maybe for forgetting your bag, it can be done easily either directly with the driver or via Uber itself.
