How To Check Ratings On Uber

Ever found yourself in an Uber, wondering if your driver's a secret getaway driver for the mob?

I mean, let's be real, we've all had that fleeting thought, right? Or maybe you're just curious about their rating, like, is this guy a 4.5 or a 5? Well, buckle up, my friend, because I'm about to spill the beans on how to check those Uber ratings.

First things first, let's talk about why ratings matter.

I get it, you're not a picky passenger, you just want to get from A to B. But hear me out, those ratings are like your driver's resume. They tell you if they're punctual, polite, and, let's face it, a safe driver. Plus, it's always nice to know if they've got a clean car, right?

Now, you might be thinking, "But how do I check these mythical ratings?" Well, grab your phone, 'cause we're about to dive into the world of Uber apps.

Alright, let's get started. Here's how you check ratings on iOS and Android.

iOS

First, open your Uber app. If you're not already on the 'Where to?' screen, tap that little search bar at the top. Now, look at the bottom of your screen, see that 'Menu' icon? Tap it. Scroll down until you see 'Your Ride History'. Tap that, and voila! You'll see a list of your past rides. Tap on any ride, and you'll see your driver's rating and their name (if they've shared it). Easy peasy, lemon squeezy.

Side note: If you're on an older version of the app, the process might be slightly different. But don't worry, Uber's always updating, so just keep your app up-to-date.

Android

Okay, Android users, here's your turn. Open your Uber app and tap on the 'Menu' icon at the top left corner. Scroll down and tap on 'Your Trips'. You'll see a list of your past rides. Tap on any ride, and you'll see your driver's rating and their name (if they've shared it). See? I told you it was easy.

Fun fact: You can also check your own rating as a rider. Just go to the 'Menu' > 'Settings' > 'Account' > 'I'm having an issue with a ride' > 'Rate your driver'. There you go, now you can see how your driver sees you.

But what if you want to check the rating before you ride?

I get it, you're a planner, you like to know these things ahead of time. Well, unfortunately, Uber doesn't make driver ratings visible until after the ride. But here's a little hack: you can see how many rides a driver has taken. It's not a rating, but it can give you an idea of their experience. Here's how:

When you're in the app and you've entered your destination, you'll see a list of available cars. At the bottom of each car's info, you'll see something like '100+ trips'. That's the number of trips that driver has taken. The more trips, the more experienced the driver (usually).

And there you have it, folks!

You're now a ratings-checking pro. Next time you're in an Uber, you can impress your driver with your knowledge (just don't be that passenger who's constantly checking their rating, okay?).

Remember, those ratings are a two-way street. So, next time you take a ride, be a good passenger, rate your driver, and help keep the Uber ecosystem running smoothly.

Until next time, happy riding!
