I'm not in advertising. Just rides to point A to point B. Another Uber rip off
I average $750 a year with my octopus tablet. I turn it on when my day starts, and I turn it off when I'm done. Anyone that says it's a scam is either lying, ignorant, or really doesn't like making extra money for nothing.
I agree, it's not a scam. Made several hundred dollars in two months. For full time drivers it's worth it. Customers like it or can ignore it.
Not to bad. Which city and state do you drive, how many hours per week?
Did you notice an increase in tips after you installed it ? I live in florida and pick up tourists a lot. They constantly ask me questions about local attractions ,places to eat etc..
Finally a positive comment. Thanks you. I get money too
If I had a TH-cam channel or business, I'd have my own tablet to advertise myself. We gotta be creative :)
Go get your own tablet talk to local business owners and get advertisements on your own. There's no reason to go through but it do this.
DRIVER BE WARNED :For those of you that are thinking this is a good idea, picture this you have one of these tablets in your vehicle need to make a pit stop, take a bathroom break better hide that tablet, don't leave it in your vehicle overnight. These things are more headache then they are worth. I'd rather not have to deal with broken windows, having my car ransacked, filing insurance claims and replacing stolen tablets. Because let's be real your literally putting a target on your back. If you plan on doing anything like this consider the environment you live in and also whether or not you want to deal with the daily upkeep and possible headaches ahead.
Risk not worth these pennies
Damnit man, you must be in a bad area.
Great video! Drivers should earn at least a dollar per trip with the tablets.
My car doesn’t even even Uber/Lyft stickers.
I drive around with the Lyft media tablet almost daily, all I hear is drivers can make $63 more in tips for riding around with it.... To me we should earn $100 per month, I'm sure the ride share company's paid alot of $ to get them made for their own profit...
My passengers have smart phones if they wanna play. Seems like a tired, worn out idea. And if Uber is sponsoring it…😂😂😂
I have a 2020 Chrysler Pacifica Sport AWD with a panoramic roof leather seats and built in TV’s. Riders enjoy watching movies or playing apps on the built in TV’s. I’d never charge them for this experience!!
Do they tip for it?
@@Tch5802 Yes most of my riders tip very well. As an example I had a father with a younger child on a $20.00 comfort ride. They had a blast playing math quizzes on the tablet. The father mentioned how much he appreciated the ride and left me a $20.00 tip!!
No thanks. Most people just get in and stare at your phone the whole time.
Knowing Uber they give you with one hand and take it away with the other hand. They want to control where you drive, how much you make, etc…
I would be more likely to give a rider a poor rating if they used me being stuck in the car with them as an oppurtunity to force me to sit through adverts.
Now an Uber passenger will get advertising in the app
They Pushing desperados drivers that works for pennies...Most trips Uber offers are 3-5$ ... what's shame😢
At first glance i saw the title as "Uber In-Car Toilets". After rereading it, ah tablets, makes more sense.
Play Octopus for over 2 years now $25 -$50 a month. The company has been a pleasure to deal with very reliable unlike Uber/Lyft ! Stay away from them.
My passengers love the games on play octopus. I will not be using Ubers version.
Just know in Marketing Advertisers pay by the CPM (Cost Per Thousand). Most CPM for Billboard is about $7 CPM. Online Display $41-45.
Which means you will need 1000 riders to make that amount. And since Uber is charging the advertiser and not you (The driver) you only getting a small faction of that...like pennies per ride.
NOT Worth It!
Same goes for the New Car Wrapper apps (I forgot the name of it). They ripping off the driver. I seen where drivers made about $100 per week with their car wrapped. I know tens of thousands of people seen there car wrap. So the drivers definitely getting ripped off.
My customers really like playing with the octopus tablet. Most of y’all are so angry about everything. Please DONT use the tablet. That way I will be the only one with a tablet and will remain the coolest Uber driver in my town. Riders tell me often that many Uber drivers are asses with dirty cars.
I get more tips with octopus in my car not to mention the 25 bucks for the 250 points. But with uber they ripping off drivers like lyft taking a lot off the top when drivers do majority of the work. It's a shame.
Indeed. Since drivers are independent contractors Uber shouldn't even be interfering in what drivers use inside their own cars to make extra revenue, the snack box company I mentioned in a post perfect example. Technically if Uber wants to advertise in drivers cars with a tablet, Uber should be paying the driver a fee no different than an advertiser paying a billboard owner.
@@FitnessConnect yeah they definitely screwing us
Lyft’s tablet is offering 10 cent per ad
How does Uber know you even have the tablet mounted. Can you just get it and leave it on in the glove box
No Thanks to either option.
Everything with Uber is temporary and promotional until it becomes comfortable for the drivers.
I was going to say at least $80 a week full time drivers ubers cur should be 7 cents
Forget it...I'm not filling uber's pockets.
Probably lose more on tips than make on the tablet
How do u make sure they jus dont take tablet with them?its in the back seat
Earn more if you do it yourself
I appreciate the earning opportunities advanced technology offers, HOWEVER; enough with the third party, advertising partnerships and revenues big tech companies are generating. First of all, what is our return on investment and costs?
So, I pay XYZ company X dollars by chance of increasing my earnings, XYZ CO receives XX $’s for advertisement slots, app games etc… AND both companies have access to users data for future “research and development”, “consumer profiling” as well as the ability to control the market AND our economy.
Oh and who suffers most when software is exploited, and security is breached, and users devises are exposed to viruses? Lets be honest, it can take years for tech corps be caught, legal cases resolved and victims compensated. Funny thing is, the same old internet profile data has probably been sold several times, its outdated if at all accurate.
Im not buying it. My personal data is mine to sell, not to made vulnerable for a random chance low par returns. My odds of winning the lottery are higher than coming out unscathed. SMH
I got one from Lyft a few months back - think I’ve spent more on wipes to keep it clean than I’ve made out of it
I drive an X/XL town and Country Van. I have cold water for passengers and I also have a Roku device that mirrors my home setup, I have live tv through youtube tv, and Netflix, Hulu, Disney +, etc.. when the Roku isn’t playing, I have a screen saver with slides using photo streams providing info about me, my vehicle, entertainment available, and a personal motto with “tips are appreciated” under it. I have just over 2,500 rides in a year and half with a 5 star rating. Not full time, I average about 18-20 hours a week most weeks. My passengers appreciate what I offer.
NEW NAME FOR ROBBING FOLKS...."DONT MAKE ME UBER YOU"😂😂
All I think about is transparency between the driver and passenger.I rather have a display that shows the passenger on how much the driver is getting out of the gate,and I am sure the passenger is willing to tip more,than have this shenanigans.cause in most city’s right now there is a surplus of drivers and the fares aren’t profitable for a full time driver
Soon uber will make those tablets a way to report your car and you
Anything that involves the brand name of Uber and Lyft, you have to be pretty stupid to give into them. I just wish you drivers would wake up and recognize how both companies are ripping you off.
It seems like Uber it trying to squeeze every penny available out of its embarrassment service. What's wrong with the basic business model? Is it not profitable?
They are already bombing riders with adds in the app for the duration of the ride and nit sharing a penny with the driver.
OK I have one over year . Now I'm Sales so play Octupus was making 25.00 month think . But think more on referal l fees . So want money off this needs ref and get monthly . They app issues sometimes can't see my money . Now want wrap my car . Cause looked at signs I want my car note paid ok more 200 I feel thats low firefly .
I sure as hell don't want to touch a dirty screen!
I calculated the cost to run a tablet that uses 30 watts of power running for 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, for 4 weeks, to be $1.46. I am using my rav4 hybrid's efficiency to calculate this (~35%).
