In the brilliant category, I want to bring this feature of Uber to your attention: Uber Senior. The national senior day, which is today (you know), seemed to me the perfect moment for that.

Uber Senior: the solution for all your transportation problems

At every birthday or Christmas party, the question is: “Who brings grandpa or grandma home?” So you host a home dinner and still end up being the designated driver, because grandpa and grandma prefer not to drive in the dark anymore. Or your father or mother has an appointment with the doctor while you have your contract negotiation with half the board. Now you no longer have to squeeze that meeting with sweaty armpits, but just order an Uber Senior to pick up your father or mother and take them to their destination.

Easily book and pay for your parents

Uber Senior is here to make life easier for the older senior, but also for you. If your parents really aren't handy with the phone, like my dear mother for example, you can as the family organizer book and pay for the rides for your parents. Just a matter of adding your parents or your grandparents to the family profile in the Uber app.

Senior mode for extra ease of use

Are your parents still quite independent, but find some apps (understandably) a bit too complicated? Then you can simplify the Uber app by checking the simple mode. The buttons are larger and you can save favorite places, making them easy to find again.

No more stress about who brings grandpa home

So no more ‘who-drives-grandpa-home’ issues. Just book the Uber Senior and you sip on a drink.

Uber has been active since 2010 with a main goal; making it easy to move people back and forth. So easy that a push of a button is enough. After Uber XL, Uber Eats, Uber Pet, Uber Senior is the next brilliant strategic set to underline this goal.

Good news, right?
