Are Uber and Uber Eats on the same app?

Interestingly, while customers use two separate apps for Uber rides and Uber Eats, drivers use the same app for both services.



Yes, Uber and Uber Eats are integrated into the same main Uber app, but they are separate services within it.

Here’s how it works:

Key Points:

  1. Single App: You download the standard Uber app (black logo with the white square). Once logged in, you can switch between services like Rides (cars, taxis, bikes) and Eats (food delivery) from the home screen.
  2. Easy Switching: At the top of the app’s home screen, you’ll typically see tabs or a selector to choose between “Ride” and “Eats” (or sometimes “Delivery”). Tapping one changes the interface for that service.
  3. Same Account: You use one account and payment method for both services. Your trip history and food orders will all be in the same place.
  4. Uber One: The subscription membership Uber One provides benefits for both rides and delivery orders, all managed within the same app.

Are There Separate Apps?

  • Uber Eats has its own dedicated app as well. Some users who only order food prefer to download the standalone Uber Eats app (green logo). It functions identically to the Eats section of the main app.
  • Drivers and delivery people use a completely separate app called Uber Driver.

In Summary:

  • For Users: You can do everything in the main Uber app. It’s a two-in-one platform. If you already have the Uber app for rides, you don’t need to download anything else to order food.
