Question

I just scheduled a ride. Can I be completely certain they will show up?

Community Answer

In my experience, yes. I tried it this past summer in a rural area of Wisconsin super early on a Sunday morning, and the driver was there waiting ahead of the time I requested.

Question

The clock icon doesn't appear on my Lyft app! What should I do?

Don't despair. If there's no clock icon, this means that the Scheduled Rides feature isn't currently in use in this Lyft city. Close to the pickup time, arrange a ride much like any other ride.

Question

How do I request a certain driver?

Community Answer

There is no way to request a particular driver. The Lyft app doesn't match you with a specific driver.

Question

How do I change my pickup time?

Community Answer

You call the driver by looking at their phone number. You can then inform them directly of your new pickup time.
