Uber to develop a “Scan to match” on the mobile app to match driver + passenger
The Issue
Currently the app shows car plates and driver pic but at night, both are hard to see. Also if the pickup is on a busy street there is usually a rush.
I think if Uber added a smart barcode to the app that would auto generate a unique match barcode for each driver reservation, then when the car stops to pick up, the passenger can use the app to quickly confirm the reservation. I don’t know how they would do it, could be a barcode sticker on front of car or even a QR code generated by the app for both driver and passenger. I’m not a developer, I’m just thinking of an outside the box solution. I do know a solution is possible.
I’m a busy entrepreneur and a mom and I Uber a lot. A young lady died last week, but it could have been me or a lot of folks out there because we are always so rushed we just jump in. I sometimes confirm the car model but on busy streets or night, it’s harder to confirm. I think we need to fix this now. Use technology and the developers to find a match solution to protect driver and passenger.
