Uber might be locked in a heated battle with Lyft, but that isn’t going to stop the company from improving and refining its own services.
Today, Uber announced two simple, but fundamental changes that will affect its rider and driver apps. The first is the ability for customers to give their destination before they’re picked up by a driver.
