Uber Adds Family Profiles for Teen Ride Requests and Live Ride Viewing
Uber is rolling out family profiles for teen accounts, letting parents and guardians request trips, pay for rides, and monitor journeys using Uber safety tools including Audio Recording. A new live-streaming option lets linked parents view rides via the driver’s selfie camera while both driver and teen are notified; access ends when the ride finishes. Uber is also expanding Group Rides in select cities and offering a phone-based option for riders without smartphones in parts of the U.S. and Canada.
