Alright, so Lyft Driver is the app you need to use if you're driving for Lyft, plain and simple. No BS. It tracks your fares, mileage, and all that ja...
Lyft, overall, provides a fantastic app with effective filters. Unfortunately, I don’t trust your “identity verification” process whatsoever. Your own Support/Help documentation states conflicting information. I should never be asked to submit my drivers license beyond the initial provision of said document. The biometric verification photo is understandable, but to continue to ask me to pull over and photograph/scan my drivers license is an overreach and I do not trust any aspect of the process (due to the sheer number of third parties which are involved, ultimately able to retain sensitive information related directly to my identity— there will be breaches, as there already have been). I suggest following the lead of your primary competitor relative to account verification— Uber excels in this process, both for drivers and riders. As such, the platform is safer. Aside from that— Lyft’s app is, overall, superior to its primary competitor’s app. The ability to control one’s area is not been remotely addressed via Uber, as that platform regularly just outright “disregards” any and all settings and preferences as it sees fit. Lyft, on the other hand, will simply “go quiet” under some circumstances (e.g., yielding earnings which vastly exceed the overall median earnings for that particular timeframe in the same overall market, etc.). The Uber algorithm is unparalleled, however (which is both an amazing circumstance as well as one which can be crippling— make no mistake: We are never in “control” despite being given a very strong illusion of control at times). Support on both platforms for issues related to compensation or anything not safety-related is abysmal. Lyft, however, truly provided support beyond what I expected in a moment when I needed it the most (safety-related). I will forever be grateful for the many years I’ve driven these platforms to varying degrees. Simply experiencing the progression as technology advances has been nothing short of amazing. Still, the number one most rewarding aspect is relative to the never-ending variety of humans with whom I come in contact daily. I was part of the whole “gig revolution” when Lyft went nationwide in 2016, and still happily drive ten years later, having safely transported some-odd 40,000 unique individuals over time. 💬 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Lyft, overall, provides a fantastic app with effective filters.

I love this app and use Lyft as a driver and rider. It’s been the most fun part time/full time gig I have ever have. Don’t let the negativity get you down, the controls in the app, rider information, and benefits are great! This is perfect for anyone getting into driving for a living.

I used to Drive for Lyft for 5 years. Until one passenger I was to pick up, wouldn’t get in the Car. Said I had an individual in my car, and it wasn’t my Car. That’s Because it was my Wife who was with me, and after my Profile said, I given 4,182 Rides, that my Car was in Need of 3,700.00 worth of Repairs. So my Car Sat in my Driveway for past 3 years. Now getting mostly Fixed. But you all Fired me. I had my Uber Passengers tell me, She gets a Lot of Drivers Fired. After that, She got fired from the Store she worked at. I picked her up other Times Before. But you sent me a message about me owing me 86.00 ? I Don’t know. But that’s what got me Texting you all. Have a Good Day. I played Banjo, Since I was 11 years old. Still play. I Don’t know if I ever hear from you. But i Didn’t think it was Right to Fire me. Just Because all the Driving you all had me Doing, Caused my Car to Break Down on me. And i Don’t have that kind of money. I’m a Very Honorable Man. Even the State Police told me I’m a Good Driver, and wanted me to apply. I always Loved the Police. So you all Lost a Wonderful Driver who always Cared about the Company, and his Passengers. Have a Good Day. Making things Right, When No one from Lyft would Not hear my Side of the Story. I used to Drive for Lyft for 5 years. Until one passenger I was to pick up, wouldn’t get in the Car.
