I was going on a trip, so I finally broke down and was going to setup a Uber account. Turns out that you can not setup an Uber account on the desktop. Only though the App and even if I have shopping apps on my phone, I don't enter CC info through it/
You also can't schedule a ride at an appointed time the day before, so when I arrived at my destination airport at 2am, I couldn't be sure I would have a ride from Uber. Yeah, maybe that's old fashioned, but those are none starters for me.
Lol ride scheduling is a scam though. Last I saw they don't make any promises that you'll actually get a ride, they just automatically request it for you shortly before your scheduled time and you have to hope a driver is available.
Sure its one less thing to think about, but it's also no different from doing it manually. Same risks.
What's worse is it's also usually more expensive than just doing it at the moment
