The "features" on the app has progressively gotten worse as they continue to "update" it. Restricting drivers to use the Lyft version of maps is horrendous. Telling us to make illegal turns, driving on restricted roads, and recently gave directions to a destination that would take over an hour more, rather than a more direct route, because it was 10 miles less. The passenger and I got a good laugh out of that, especially since time was a huge factor. Let us use Google again! In a 750k population

I was using Waze until last weekend, now I'm stuck with Lyft's awful navigation. And the Android Auto app is even worse. Shortest route doesn't mean best, I find myself ignoring the navigation instead of using it until I get close to the destination. Not showing the name of the business I'm heading toward is a huge issue. I've lived in my city my entire life, business names are way more useful than the actual address. Especially in areas with many things packed closely together. Not good.

After the most recent update the app no longer functions in Android Auto, and the Android Auto implementation was limited at best in the first place. I can't see why we should still have to keep our phones on a mount in the sun to operate the app when we've got a big screen right there on the dashboard of our cars that's easier to see and doesn't overheat.

It's a good way to earn some extra cash but since we now have to use Lyft's navigation software, it's been HORRIBLE. Support told me it was my phone. I did everything they asked me to do while on the phone with them and still no change. I even took my phone to my carriers store and had It looked at by their techs and everything on my end is fine and up to date. I'm tired of seeing the "Low GPS Signal" and then it doesn't recognize where I am in the middle of a ride. HORRIBLE APP SOFTWARE

As others have mentioned, it's frustrating that we are forced to use only Lyft maps, which is just plain stupid. I tried to drive for the first time in a while after opening the app, and now I can't even get the Lyft driver app to work on Android Auto. It keeps crashing and giving me an error message that says 'Lyft driver has encountered an unexpected error.' This is absolutely ridiculous! I've seen other reviews saying this problem has been going on for nearly a month. Come on, Lyft, you reall

I wish the app had a pause button like Uber (only on Apple devices). Nevertheless, my main issue is that I no longer have access to my account. Previously, I changed my phone number which caused login probs but I was able to solve it. Meanwhile, my scheduled ride access has been reduced I couldn't make several pick-ups due to navigation issues, and it said to call the rider but I couldn't because the app didn't recognize my number. Lastly, adding apartment and building numbers would be great!!
