i've been lyfting on & off for about 2 years, in Charlotte, NC. the app works for me most of the time. the breakdown of your pay is very nice. the other features like "staying within an area" and the incentives are definitely a plus on my end. however, the configuration of the directions is off a lot. i can't change the color of my car on the app regarding what the rider sees. it shows my car as yellow, but it's white. so it gets annoying when i have to send them a message saying it's white.

Mostly decent, but major issues with matchmaking. I can sit in a bonus zone for 30 minutes before getting a ride, which is very frustrating. This happens often. Once a drop-off location was closed, so the riders asked if they could get another ride from me. I was sitting there with my app open and on when they sent out a request, but it matched them with someone 8 minutes away. I did not have another ride queued at the time. Fix it please.

Wrong routes on some trips. Gps has been horrible the last few weeks. It took me to the complete wrong place yesterday. Had to turn around and drive to the complete opposite side of town. Whoever works on the addresses needs fired. Speed limits are wrong on the app as well. I was going down 75, and it's 65 through there, and the app said the speed limit was 50, so it was in red when i was going the actual speed limit,also tried to have me go through a pond and a restricted factory area as well.
