The modern man can do anything with his smartphone. We can communicate with other people around the world, get a job, run our own social networks, and much more. The life of a modern person is simplified as much as possible with the help of various applications and technologies. Even if you want to eat, you don’t have to go and start cooking. In this case, you can help with a variety of services for home food delivery. It is enough to open an application on your smartphone, choose the dish you like, pay for it with your credit card, and soon it will be delivered right to your door. One of the most popular apps in this segment is Uber Eats.
What is Uber Eats
Uber Eats is an online food ordering and delivery platform that Uber launched in 2014. Users of the app can read menus, see restaurant reviews and ratings. Also in the app you can pay for your order online. The app is available on iOS or Android, or in web format. There is also an opportunity to leave a tip for fast and quality delivery. Delivery is made by couriers in cars, bicycles, scooters or even on foot. It is easy to recognize the courier on the street by the green or black Uber bag. Uber Eats is currently available in 32 countries
