Uber has launched special accounts for seniors, following the success of similar accounts for teenagers.
The senior accounts feature larger text and buttons for easier use and can be linked to another user's account for assistance in booking trips.
Trusted relatives or caregivers can manage rides for older users through 'family profiles,' offering support such as live-tracking trips and accessing driver information.
The new feature aims to help older adults stay independent and connected, addressing concerns about technology exclusion among the elderly.
