Nice presentation and very useful educational video...just one thing,the driver used a very good day for him to show as an example,He made $127.14 in 2h 8m,which really awesome,but I just wanna tell the new drivers don't fall for that and get disappointed if you didn't make the same amount of money in a couple of hours because that's not how it usually works,there was a $25 bonus means the driver made $102 in 2h8m online 5 trips,I know a lot of it is being a pro and have a strategy but also big part of it is good luck
UBER TV 2 bonuses triggered for me that day ($65 WRC & $25 streak bonus), without those bonuses is was a $37 day
Thanks Joe, I just recently went back on LYFT last week and just haven’t had time to use the app yet. It’s been almost a year since I’ve driven for LYFT. 💖
You did an EXCELLENT job within explaining everything!! It's appreciated very much!! Thanks!!
Thank you Crystal!
I learn from your vedios thats why i subscribes you and i am thankful for u because i am thanking to starts my lyf today ....
Thanks for that awesome overview! That needs to be on our actual app! I'm sure glad to have found your TH-cam vids!😉
Thank you that was most useful as I am about to embark with my Lyft driving this week ....what a time to start up , right ?
Great video! Easy to understand. Thanks.
Totally the BEST Tutorial I have tried a lot of tutorials and this is the best one for the first time user Thank you
I’ve been watching your videos and you guys are really good. I signed up with Lyft with your code
Excellent, helpful, informative. video. Thanks for posting 👍😊
My Lyft app doesn’t have all these features, what should I do?
Keante Griggs same here im confused
I am new, but it seems that some of the features are market specific. I know his market and Minneapolis is a large metro area. I drive about 90 miles away in a smaller community and I do not have some of the features he shows. Likely due to my smaller market I drive in.
A great Lyft video.
The Beacon Of Light Driver Stay lit drivers Hey there Nick 💖
UberGirlPaula LA Hey Paula!Informative video here.Nice to see.
The Beacon Of Light Driver Stay lit drivers Definitely Nick as I haven’t been driving for Lyft since last April
For what it’s worth. The picture is too small for us old people
Helpful and now a new version is out changing the use of filters and what else?
Hey Joe.
Your channel is filled with excellent information. Thank you for everything you share with us...its appreciated my friend. I just got a new SUV, and Im having a hard time downloading my documents off the lyft apps documents browse page. Everytime I press the browse pictures to download my registration...it never opens it. Ive tried the help format and the samething happens. After you explain your issue they have another box that asks you to attach a file from their browse box, guess what...it doesnt ope either... what can you recommend since the faster you finish downloading your documents, the faster you can pass their questionnaire and actuallly be allowed to be a driver? I hope you can help me...and probably others who might have come to the same issue? Thanks in advance.
Martin.
Excellent presentation but presented much too fast! PLEASE slow down so your viewer has time to grasp the information before jumping to the next item.
When you rated the passenger you wrote "thanks for the tip!". Question, does the passenger see the comment?
First ride and Lyft's map program appeared to freeze. No voice directions or screen motion when driving. Is there a way to test Lyft's driver app's map program without actually accepting a ride? I don't want to accept rides, then have to cancel them while I try and troubleshoot it. I am updating the iPhone software, which I'm hoping will solve the problem. Anyone else have problems with their map program?
At times when I am in the middle of a ride I get another ride automatically added to my queue, BUT the navigation is turned off. How do I turn back ON the navigation for that ride? Thanks for all your help.
I hope you've figured it out by now but it's the arrow in the top Right of the screen
wheres that expand button, don't have that either. man
👍🏽 Thanks for making this video.🤓
I have a Few questions.
1. In destination mode can you just specify a city as a destination (without a specific address)
2. Is there a penalty if you decline to go pick someone up???
3. Are you required to follow the GPS directions???? (Much Like truck drivers are required to follow a pre-planned route) I ask this because This could be useful in avoiding certain construction areas by choosing my own custom route to get to the same destination for my passenger.
4. And to be clear if you use destination mode without a preset time and you leave it on your whole shift it will always put your drop off (with in reason) in proximity of your destination mode setting....
Joe, what method do you use to track your mileage?...thx, very helpful!
What happens if you push "get help with this ride"?
How do I stop the app from stacking rides on me without asking
Joe Mezzanini You can Select “Stop more trips”
@@UGPVlogsLA Lyft needs to fix that. It's super annoying. With Uber I can see where a trip is coming from and decide on my own.
We don't get streak bonuses out here in CT. It's too busy :(
I started this Friday. Part time. I’m having a hard time with the shared ride. I also had one with 2 destinations. How is it that you made that much?
Thanks a lot. Can you see the destination rider is going to before accepting the ride?
No unfortunately.
I’m new, will be starting soon. So, is the only way to see the destination is if it’s a scheduled pick up? I’m just concerned because I have a job that requires me there at a specific time m-f
Daniella Kemmesies You can see the destination once you arrive. Just tap the passenger profile box.
If you need to be at work at a specific time, give yourself some extra time and put your work address in the destination filter. That way if you don’t happen to Lyft anyone going that way, then you’ll just arrive early.
Good luck!
Hidden In Plain Sight thank you! That’s great advice
I Had a Lyft plus or XL ride but the passenger only requested a lyft or standard ride. When I asked Support to adjust the ride fare they wouldn’t. They said I should have requested the Ryder to change the ride request before I started. When I asked how I would know that, I think they said the color around the profile picture of the passenger would be blue for XL, green for standard. Anyone know if this is true?
Great video.
Why dont i have payment option...is it because im still waiting for approval?
I'm new to Lyft, so I'm still learning the app. Today, I got a ping and I'll be darned if the "turn by turn" navigation never came on. I checked the app, and I do have it toggled on. I guess my question is, after the ping is accepted, doesn't the "turn by turn" nav automatically start? Like it does with Uber. If not, what do i have to do to get it started? You said in this video, the navigation automatically comes on. Are you referring to the VOICE navigation or just the visual without the voice?
5:05 - What's under Navigation? When would I need to know what's under here, and why is "Lyft" an option under Navigation among many?
Very helpful as the app has changed a lot in recent months.
Thank you.
I noticed you like the Nav that utilizes the marriage between Lyft and Google Maps...how well does that do in avoiding/routing around traffic? I always use Waze as it seems to do a better job of that but I've not tried the other in quite some time.
andy164501 Google Navigation is better for driving here in Los Angeles for sure. I find that Waze is just too much of a pain for me. Never liked that navigation at all.
Why not give Google Maps a try. 👍
@@UGPVlogsLA Thanks for the reply. I'd love to interact with someone that, like me, loves and depends on Waze for their day-to-day traveling to get their thoughts on if it's worth jettisoning Waze for G'Maps in the context of the Lyft app. Since I noticed the RS Guy does have Waze installed on his phone I am hoping he'll weight in on the this.
Since I run with 2 phones I recon I could run Waze on my secondary one and compare routes (as a test). If I were a betting man I would bet that Waze is superior in avoiding traffic, police locations, red-light cameras, hazards on the road ahead (objects, potholes, etc.) but clearly having the best/fastest route is what's important when doing rideshare driving.
andy164501 That’s what I do Andy. I have my s9 dedicated to UBER, LYFT, HOPSKIPDRIVE & ZUM. Then my iPhone I have for business calls and also for other navigation if I can’t use the other phone. Have you ever heard of INRIX? However you can’t use it on any of these platforms
andy164501 Also Andy, some platforms monitor your use by touching the phone and that goes against you. Especially on HopSkipDrive. So I only touch my iPhone. It’s for safety purposes, as a few weeks ago I was rated a “B” for touching my phone! I’m now back to being an “A” now. Lol. I like being professional about my business
andy164501 Yesterday I did a livestream on my set up of my car on my channel. My HopSkipDrive videos will be on The Rideshare Guy’s channel very soon! 👍💖
Can you see how much you get paid before accepting the ride?
wow my app shows none of this.
Good job bro
has anyone ever been deactivated for having ur registration close to the expiration date? mine expires on 3/31
Nothing to do with this video but have you seen uber is lowering rates for destination mode trips?
So what’s the destination mode for, when your driving home for? Is it just a gps?
Yes. When your driving home or want to go in a specific destination.
Doesn’t look anything like my app...
Last week one of my rider's draw my attention that her app is showing a totally different car than mine(Make, Model and color) except the license plate was correct, I talked to Uber and they said this should be fixed in 2 hours and today it is day 5 and nothing happened, BTW this issue happens with me every few months? did anyone face such a thing before? knowing that I have the same car since I signed up with Uber before 3.5 years. Thank you.
how much it cost to ride a LYFT within 6miles distance?
Thank you sir!
My app doesn't have those features.
What if u can't go online
So Lyft still has the feature that makes you want to drive to get the extra incentive while Uber on the other hand took that feature away.... features that Uber had originally they now want you to earn which is stupid.
5:13 - What kind of ways does Lyft help with Accessibility?
They recently added a new feature to the Lyft app that, after you accept, it shows the direction of the ride and the time estimated for the ride itself after pickup. It usually is a small box that says something like "southwest 20 minutes" or whatever. You have to have a minimum of 90% acceptance to get these messages
None of the icon shown are available on the latest app that I recently uploaded. Way too advanced for a tutorial.
I guess that’s the difference between living in a big city and not. I’m in Orlando and we get $20 for referring people... not $400 haha
Wonder if all the people complaining about how bad it is to work for Uber and Lyft in all these video comments sections note that this dude is pulling down close to 31$ an hour?
I mean, he's not after you figure in expenses and all that, but that's definitely on the high spectrum of things. I did it for a year and was a lot closer to $10-$15 which is more like the average outside of big city areas I'd say.
Pls just stop calling us for pointless things, PLEASEEEE READ POLICIES before you accept a promo o something else 🚨🚨🚨.
Lol you literally didnt explain anything at all. I see the same thing you do bud
It's not hard to see is it? Great point.
"But it don't make no sense!" Pa cried.
"Not till you see the fella that put out this here bill. You'll see him, or somebody
that's workin' for him. You'll be a-campin' by a ditch, you an' fifty other famblies. An'
he'll look in your tent an' see if you got anything lef' to eat. An' if you got nothin', he
says, 'Wanna job?' An' you'll say, 'I sure do, mister. I'll sure thank you for a chance to
do some work.' An' he'll say, 'I can use you.' An' you'll say, 'When do I start?' An' he'll
tell you where to go, an' what time, an' then he'll go on. Maybe he needs two hunderd
men, so he talks to five hunderd, an' they tell other folks, an' when you get to the place,
they's a thousan' men. This here fella says, 'I'm payin' twenty cents an hour.' An' maybe
half a the men walk off. But they's still five hunderd that's so goddamn hungry they'll
work for nothin' but biscuits. Well, this here fella's got a contract to pick them peaches
or-chop that cotton. You see now? The more fellas he can get, an' the hungrier, less
he's gonna pay. An' he'll get a fella with kids if he can, 'cause-hell, I says I wasn't
gonna fret ya." The circle of faces looked coldly at him. The eyes tested his words. The
ragged man grew self-conscious. "I says I wasn't gonna fret ya, an' here I'm a-doin' it.
You gonna go on. You ain't goin' back."
ATTN DRIVERS AND THOSE THINKING ABOUT DRIVING PLEASE READ: To the rideshare prof and others like him (rideshareguy, uber driver etc) online -- you MUST be getting SOMETHING from uber/lyft to be constantly online pushing the idea of a viable income from these driver-blood sucking companies -- I have driven for the both (95% uber) for over a yr (now I've stopped and no longer will do so)-- I find it **VERY** dishonest of you to - at ANY TIME - be talking about the revenue being generated from driving (forget about the nonsense of the non-existent "referral" income) and NOT mentioning the *HIGH** driving costs of gas!!/ repairs/ depreciation of value on the car/ how screwed drivers will feel from the "expenses" taken by uber/lyft as THEIR portion (in reality a silicon valley modern day mafia)/ and the increased exposure risk to accidents that will be inevitable -- I've driven with a prius and find unfathomable how any NON-hybrid could possibly break even
having driven it DID afford "flexibility" of hrs working but one HAS to drive ridiculous amounts of hrs to be making anything substantive to eek out a living in LA (which is where I've driven) -- there is no "rideSHARE" as that is a way to make this seem "cool" or palatable as a way to "utilize" your car or make an "income" (which it was but uber/lyft take a mafia portion of what is DUE to drivers given DRIVERS are the one putting out all the expenses)
so good luck to anyone but all these ride"share" advocates online **IMHO** MUST be getting some income from uber/lyft to be pushing this as a viable "business" -- it is **NOT** unless you want to work 7 days a week putting in 60+ hrs driving while "making your own hours"
How did you go about getting the airport permit that's required to apply?
Lyft sent me an email after passing vehicle test, with link to permit for ohare airport. Very nice
