Uber Eats users can now create shareable lists of their favorite meals. Food influencers like Sam Roby are joining the fun, curating lists for Uber Eats. This is the latest in a series of changes, including fresh produce delivery and driverless cars.
Uber Eats has introduced a new feature allowing users to create and share lists of their favorite meals. These lists are curated from local restaurant menus and can be shared with friends and family. This is perfect for times when you’re too busy or sick to handle your own takeout, as others can now see exactly what you prefer and order on your behalf. The lists are shareable by default, meaning anyone can access and enjoy your recommendations.
To make things even more interesting, Uber Eats is partnering with well-known food influencers to create curated lists. Early participants include influencers like Sam Roby from Chicago Food Authority, Ella Kahan, and Emma Matarasso from Chew York City. These influencer lists could give users fresh ideas for meal orders while adding a bit of star power to the process. It remains to be seen how these lists will be received in smaller cities where these influencers might not be as well-known.
Uber Eats has been rolling out several new features recently. In select cities, the platform now offers fresh produce from local farmers markets, helping users access healthy ingredients without leaving home. This is in line with the company’s goal of expanding its service beyond traditional restaurant meals. Uber Eats has also been testing driverless delivery vehicles, aiming to revolutionize the delivery process with cutting-edge technology.
The new list-sharing feature has the potential to elevate everyday Uber Eats users to influencer status. If a user’s list gets enough attention, it could end up featured on the app's home page, making them a local celebrity for the day. This gives users a fun way to participate in their local food scene while adding a social aspect to meal delivery. Whether for influencers or everyday users, Uber Eats continues to push the boundaries of what a food delivery service can offer.
