Getting into your Uber Eats driver account
To log into Uber Eats as a driver, open the Uber Driver app on your phone and enter the phone number or email address linked to your account, then enter your password. If you have two-factor authentication turned on, you'll receive a code by text or email that you'll need to enter to complete login. The app will then show you available delivery requests in your area.
You can only log in through the Uber Driver app — there is no separate website login for drivers. Make sure you're using the Uber Driver app, not the regular Uber app (which is for passengers) or the Uber Eats app (which is for customers ordering food).
Key Takeaways
- Log in using the Uber Driver app with your phone number or email and password.
- If you set up two-factor authentication, you'll need to enter a code sent to your phone or email each time you log in.
- Resetting your password requires access to the email or phone number on your account.
- You can switch between Uber rides and Uber Eats deliveries from the same driver account if you're signed up for both services.
What to do if you forgot your password
On the Uber Driver app login screen, tap "Trouble logging in?" or "Forgot password?" Enter the phone number or email address on your account. Uber will send you a link to reset your password — check your email inbox or text messages depending on which method you chose.
Click or tap the reset link within 30 minutes. You'll be taken to a page where you can create a new password. Make your new password at least 8 characters long and include a mix of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols for security. After you save the new password, return to the login screen and sign in with your new credentials.
Two-factor authentication and security codes
Two-factor authentication adds an extra security step to your login. After you enter your password correctly, Uber sends a six-digit code to your phone number or email address. You have 10 minutes to enter that code on the app before it expires.
If you don't receive the code, check your spam or junk folder — sometimes the text or email lands there by mistake. You can also tap "Resend code" to request a new one. If you change your phone number, update it in your account settings before you need to log in again, or you won't be able to receive the security code.
Logging in on a new phone or device
read the Uber Driver app from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, depending on whether you have an iPhone or Android phone. Open the app and enter your login information the same way you would on any other device. If you have two-factor authentication enabled, you'll receive a security code just like normal.
You don't need to do anything special to "transfer" your account — your driver account exists in Uber's system, not on your old phone. As long as you log in with the correct phone number or email and password, you'll see your account, your earnings history, and your ratings on the new device.
Switching between Uber rides and Uber Eats
If you're signed up to drive for both Uber (passenger rides) and Uber Eats (food delivery), you use the same Uber Driver app and the same login. Once you're logged in, you can toggle between the two services using the buttons at the bottom of the app screen. You can turn on Uber, turn on Uber Eats, or turn on both at the same time.
Your earnings, ratings, and account settings are shared across both services. If you turn off your driver status entirely, you'll stop receiving requests for both Uber rides and Uber Eats deliveries.
Account access issues and locked accounts
If you enter your password incorrectly multiple times in a row, Uber may temporarily lock your account for security reasons. Wait 15 to 30 minutes and try again, or use the "Forgot password?" option to reset your password even if you remember it. This often unlocks the account faster than waiting.
If your account has been deactivated by Uber (for example, due to ratings or policy violations), you won't be able to log in at all. The login screen will show a message explaining that your account is not active. In that case, you'll need to contact Uber support through the app or website to understand why and what options are available to you.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I log into the Uber Driver app on multiple phones at the same time?
Yes, you can log into your account on more than one device simultaneously. However, you can only be actively online and receiving delivery requests on one device at a time. If you go online on a second device, you'll automatically go offline on the first one.
What if I don't remember which email or phone number I used to create my account?
Try logging in with the phone number or email you think is most likely. If that doesn't work, tap "Trouble logging in?" and try other contact information you may have used. If you still can't find it, contact Uber support — they can look up your account using your name and other details.
Do I need to log in every time I want to deliver?
No. Once you log in, the Uber Driver app keeps you logged in until you manually log out. You can close the app and reopen it later, and you'll still be logged in. You only need to log in again if you log out, uninstall the app, or your session expires due to inactivity.
Is the Uber Driver app login the same as my Uber passenger account?
No. Your driver account and any passenger account you may have are separate. They may use the same phone number or email, but they have different passwords and different login flows. Always use the Uber Driver app to log in as a driver.
