Still has quirks. Brings me close most of the time but still puts me in alleys instead of on the street once in a while. Also has limited construction updates or traffic jam info which would help a bumch. Update: seems to be getting worse. GPS is possessed. Goes berserk during trips. Sometimes i have […]

For several weeks now the app has not been working correctly. There is a delay in ride count and earnings. The navigation system is failing to load. The line rides are not loading pickup locations. The app automatically switches you to a different passenger than the one you select which is terribly inconvenient in vegas. […]

Riders are cancelling because they are not getting an accurate GPS location of my progress to pick them up. I am not getting notifications of the cancellation leading to my wasting gas. I have had several riders say “it was showing you 20 minutes away” when I was right outside. Additionally, I get logged out […]

Lyft is not as busy as Uber. So, it should pay better. Instead of lowering the prices on priority mode, keep prices the same. The Lyft airport queue keeps throwing us to the back of the line or off the queue because the app thinks we’re outside of the staging lot. When I haven’t moved […]

This is by far the SHADIEST company ever. I’ve been driving for about a year and all I can say is that, when you get good rides, the app is working perfectly fine, you will love it. But the moment you have an issue, big or small- you better have great luck because there is […]

I just started driving with Lyft and the app is so frustrating. It lags in every possible way, causing me to be unable to accept rides, GPS lags and/or just dissappears, phone calls connect, but neither the driver nor the rider can hear anything making it impossible to find your rider when the map is […]

Since the latest update, I’ve had numerous issues. The GPS was never the greatest, and now seems to go haywire during a lot of rides. Sometimes it gives a completely wrong location. Driver mode keeps toggling to the off position without warning or notification, so I’m offline when I think I’m online. Tried to request […]

Overall, this app is ok. I give 3 stars because the LYFT Driver GPS navigation is very unreasonable sometimes. There are a lot of better routes that you can sometimes take, and it takes a minute for gps to re-calculate. Another reason for 3 stars is that when you want to speak to a live […]

The App doesn’t work well with Android Auto. It doesn’t mirror the phone app to Android Auto well at all. I’m back and forth from the phone to my vehicle screen. Most of the time it loses sounds and I have to make the trips with vision only. Then it decides to come back in […]

This app is horrible. Nearly everytime I get a ride and accept it, it goes away and I get a message that says “Match in Progress” and then the “ride is no longer available”. Not only that, whoever is creating the GPS directions, needs to be fired. These directions are horrible. They take you through […]

After 7+ years of driving for Lyft, the Deiver app has gone from being occasionally glitchy to completely worthless. Rides are suddenly becoming unavailable for minutes at a time – even when it’s busy – even in so-called “Priority Mode”. Customers say they have been waiting minutes for rides to match, while drivers aren’t getting […]

GPS is borderline dangerous. Recommends illegal turns, doesn’t always give warning of upcoming turns resulting in turns made from wrong lane, can’t differentiate which direction it’s facing. App is very distracting while driving. Doesn’t have easily accessible “last ride” option, so if you need gas you must cancel all pending rides and log out to […]

I give a 3 on the app particularly the navigation. For some reason they have taken away any options to navigate. unfortunately their GPS system navigates us through dark and secluded back roads which not only be scary but very dangerous as well for women and people of color. Lyft you must do better. Back […]

This thing isn’t loading up properly and is running extremely slow. the settings for dark screen always, no longer works. The option to use Google Maps is no longer there. using lyft GPS is boston is an absolute headache. The map literally starts going all over the place, and i don’t know where to go. […]

The “features” on the app has progressively gotten worse as they continue to “update” it. Restricting drivers to use the Lyft version of maps is horrendous. Telling us to make illegal turns, driving on restricted roads, and recently gave directions to a destination that would take over an hour more, rather than a more direct […]

I wish the app had a pause button like Uber (only on Apple devices). Nevertheless, my main issue is that I no longer have access to my account. Previously, I changed my phone number which caused login probs but I was able to solve it. Meanwhile, my scheduled ride access has been reduced I couldn’t […]

As others have mentioned, it’s frustrating that we are forced to use only Lyft maps, which is just plain stupid. I tried to drive for the first time in a while after opening the app, and now I can’t even get the Lyft driver app to work on Android Auto. It keeps crashing and giving […]

After the most recent update the app no longer functions in Android Auto, and the Android Auto implementation was limited at best in the first place. I can’t see why we should still have to keep our phones on a mount in the sun to operate the app when we’ve got a big screen right […]

It’s a good way to earn some extra cash but since we now have to use Lyft’s navigation software, it’s been HORRIBLE. Support told me it was my phone. I did everything they asked me to do while on the phone with them and still no change. I even took my phone to my carriers […]

I was using Waze until last weekend, now I’m stuck with Lyft’s awful navigation. And the Android Auto app is even worse. Shortest route doesn’t mean best, I find myself ignoring the navigation instead of using it until I get close to the destination. Not showing the name of the business I’m heading toward is […]
