Taxi-hailing company Uber Kenya has unveiled a revamped rider application that will makes it easier for riders to use the popular app. The App has so far been well adopted by riders in Kenya with a 68% adoption rate. The revamped Uber app now includes features such as upfront pricing and estimate time of arrival at the destination, so that riders have the information they need to make the best decision for their wallet and schedule. The redesigned rider app is faster, smarter, and is much more personalized than it was before for riders and more reliable than before,” said Kagure Wamunyu, Uber Kenya’s Operations Lead. Uber, which has been in Kenya for two years, has now added a few things to the revamped version of the app, starting with the rider’s destination.
