Deleting Uber History

Currently, Uber does not allow you to delete your ride history because it’s part of your account’s data. However, if you delete your Uber account, your ride history will be deleted along with it.

Starting Over with Uber

If you want a fresh start with Uber, you’ll need to delete your current account (as outlined in the sections above) and create a new one:

1. Delete Your Current Uber Account: Follow the steps above to delete your current Uber account.
2. Create a New Account: Once your old account is deleted, you can create a new one. Open the Uber app or website, select ‘Sign Up,’ and enter your information.

Please note that you’ll need a different email address and phone number from your old account to create a new one.

In conclusion

Whether you’re a rider or driver, deleting your Uber account can be done in a few simple steps. Although certain account information, like your ride history, cannot be individually deleted, it will be erased when your account is deleted.

If you’re looking to start fresh, deleting your old account and signing up again with new credentials will give you a clean slate. Happy riding with Uber!
