uber-wpBetter late than never, or so the saying goes. For those of you who are rocking to Windows Phone, you need not fret any longer since Uber is finally available for this particular platform of your choice. Touted to be the “private driver” in over 40 countries, we have heard stories on how Uber is changing the way one commutes to work, although during those moments when you let your hair down, it might end up costing you more instead.

With Uber for Windows Phone, one is able to make a request for a ride using the app, before getting picked up – all in a matter of minutes, which is a boon in the current world where everyone is constantly in a hurry. Apart from that, on-demand service would mean that there are no reservations required, as well as elimination of waiting in taxi lines.

In addition, the Uber app allows you to make a comparison of rates when it comes to different vehicles. You can always add a credit card to your secure account so that you never have to carry too much cash with you – although do keep a lookout on your credit card limit.

New features that are on their way in due time for Uber for Windows Phone include fare quotes within the app, shareable links with trip map and ETA, and the ability to split your fare with friends for a more affordable ride.
