Log out on the Uber app by tapping your profile picture, then Account, then Sign Out

Open the Uber app on your phone. Tap the profile icon in the bottom right corner (it looks like a person's head and shoulders). Scroll down and tap Account. At the bottom of that screen, you will see Sign Out — tap it. The app will ask you to confirm; tap Sign Out again. You are now logged out.

On a web browser, go to uber.com, click your profile picture in the top right corner, and select Sign Out from the dropdown menu. You will be logged out when ready.

After you sign out, the app or website will return you to the login screen. You will need your email address and password to log back in.

Key Takeaways

  • On the Uber app, tap your profile picture, select Account, then tap Sign Out at the bottom of the screen.
  • On the Uber website, click your profile picture in the top right corner and select Sign Out from the menu.
  • You will need your email and password to log back in after signing out.
  • Signing out on one device does not automatically sign you out on other devices where you are logged in.
  • If you forget your password after signing out, use the "Forgot password?" link on the login screen to reset it.

Sign out on all devices at once from your account settings

If you are logged into Uber on multiple phones or browsers, you can sign out of all of them from one place. On the app, go to your profile, tap Account, then scroll down and tap Security. Look for Sign out of all devices or Active sessions (the exact wording varies by app version). Tap it, and confirm when prompted.

On the website, click your profile picture, select Account Settings, then find Security or Login & Security. You should see an option to view or manage active sessions. Select the option to sign out everywhere or end all sessions.

This action signs you out when ready on every device and browser where you were logged in. You will need to log back in on each device separately if you want to use Uber again.

What happens to your account information after you sign out

Once you sign out, your payment methods, saved addresses, and ride history remain stored in your Uber account. They will not be deleted. When you log back in with your email and password, all your information will be there exactly as you left it.

You will not receive notifications about promotions, ride reminders, or driver updates while you are signed out. If you have an active ride when you sign out, that ride will be cancelled and you may be charged a cancellation fee depending on how far the driver has travelled.

If you want to delete your account entirely rather than just sign out, that is a separate process through Account Settings, but signing out alone does not remove your account or your data.

Reasons to sign out of your Uber account

You might sign out if you are using a shared device or a public computer and do not want to leave your account accessible to someone else. Signing out is faster and safer than staying logged in on a device you do not own.

You may also sign out if you are troubleshooting a problem with the app — signing out and logging back in can clear temporary glitches. Some users sign out before traveling internationally to avoid location-based issues or to switch to a different Uber account for a different country.

If you suspect someone else has accessed your account, signing out of all devices and then changing your password is a good first step to find it again.

How to reset your password if you cannot log back in

On the Uber login screen, tap or click Forgot password? Enter your email address, and Uber will send you a link to reset your password. Check your email inbox and spam folder for the message from Uber.

Click the link in the email to open the password reset page. Create a new password that is different from your old one, then confirm it. Once you have saved your new password, return to the login screen and log in with your email address and the new password.

If you do not receive the password reset email within a few minutes, check that you entered the correct email address associated with your Uber account. You can also try requesting the reset link again.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will signing out cancel my current ride?

Yes. If you have an active ride when you sign out, the ride will be cancelled when ready. The driver will be notified, and you may be charged a cancellation fee depending on how far the driver has already travelled toward your pickup location.

Can I sign out without using the app or website?

No. You must sign out through the Uber app or website. There is no phone number to call or other method to sign out remotely. If you cannot access your account, you can reset your password using the "Forgot password?" link on the login screen.

Does signing out on my phone also sign me out on my computer?

No. Signing out on one device only logs you out on that device. You will still be logged in on your computer, tablet, or any other device. To sign out everywhere at once, use the "Sign out of all devices" option in your Account or Security settings.

Is it safe to stay logged in on my phone?

It is generally safe if your phone is password-protected and you are the only person who uses it. If you share your phone or are concerned about security, signing out when you are done using Uber is the safer choice.

What should I do if I think someone else logged into my account?

Sign out of all devices when ready using the "Sign out of all devices" option in your Security settings. Then reset your password to something new that only you know. If you see rides or charges you did not make, contact Uber support through the app or website to report the unauthorized activity.
