My app on my phone does not let me schedule a ride earlier than the present time. How do I get an updated app? Do I need to delete the old one?
Scheduling is only available in certain markets and locations. If you are in an area Uber feels cannot guarantee you a ride, (even though it isn't guaranteed), they won't offer you an option to schedule.
