Uber is Making Their App More Senior Friendly

New feature is designed to be a simplified version of the app.

Uber is rolling out “senior accounts” to its family profile feature. It is designed to be a simplified version of the app with larger text, fewer buttons and easy-to-navigate screens.

Since the new feature resides under Uber’s family profiles, loved ones are able to help set up an account and offer support for seniors if needed. Those not a part of a family profile, still have the option to turn on “simple mode…”which will offer the same easy-to-use interface as “senior accounts.” This comes a month after the company did a test run for the feature in Phoenix and Orlando.
