Signing In to Uber Eats on Your Phone or Computer
To sign in to Uber Eats, open the app or go to ubereats.com, tap or click the account icon (usually at the bottom right of the screen), and select "Log In". Enter the email address or phone number connected 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 next.
The process is the same whether you're using an iPhone, Android phone, or a web browser on a computer. After you sign in successfully, you'll see your saved addresses, payment methods, and order history on your account page.
Key Takeaways
- You can sign in with either the email address or phone number you used when you created your account.
- If you forget your password, tap "Forgot password?" on the login screen and follow the reset instructions sent to your email.
- Two-factor authentication adds a security step by requiring a code sent to your phone or email each time you sign in.
- You can stay signed in on your device so you don't have to enter your password every time you order.
What to Do If You Forgot Your Password
On the login screen, tap or click "Forgot password?" below the password field. Uber Eats will send a password reset link to the email address or phone number associated with your account. Open that link and create a new password—it should be at least 8 characters long and include a mix of letters, numbers, and symbols for better security.
If you don't see the reset email in your inbox within a few minutes, check your spam or junk folder. After you've reset your password, you can sign back in with your new one right away.
Staying Signed In vs. Signing Out
When you sign in, Uber Eats usually offers a "Stay signed in" option. If you check this box, your account will remain open on that device, and you won't have to enter your password the next time you open the app or website. This is convenient for personal devices but not recommended on shared computers or phones.
To sign out, go to your account settings, scroll to the bottom, and tap or click "Log Out". This closes your account on that device. You'll need to sign in again the next time you want to order. If you're using a shared device, always sign out when you're done.
Using Your Google or Apple Account to Sign In
Instead of entering your email and password, you can sign in with your Google account (on any device) or your Apple ID (on iPhones and iPads). On the login screen, look for the "Continue with Google" or "Continue with Apple" button. Tap it, and you'll be taken to Google or Apple's login page to confirm your identity.
This method is faster and means you don't have to remember a separate Uber Eats password. Your Uber Eats account will be linked to whichever Google or Apple account you choose. If you later want to sign in a different way, you can change this in your account settings.
Two-Factor Authentication and Account Security
Two-factor authentication (often called 2FA) is an extra security layer that requires you to confirm your identity in two ways. After you enter your password, Uber Eats sends a code to your phone or email. You must enter this code to finish signing in. This protects your account even if someone learns your password.
You can turn two-factor authentication on or off in your account settings under "Security". If you turn it on, make sure the phone number or email address where you receive codes is one you can access regularly. If you lose access to that phone or email, you may have trouble signing in and should contact Uber Eats support.
Signing In on Multiple Devices
You can be signed in to your Uber Eats account on more than one device at the same time—for example, on your phone and your computer. Each device stores its own session, so signing out on one device doesn't sign you out on the others. If you want to sign out everywhere at once, go to your account settings and look for an option like "Sign out of all devices" or "Manage active sessions".
If you see a device listed that you don't recognize, you can remove it from your active sessions. This is a good security practice if you've used a shared computer or if you've sold or given away an old phone.
Troubleshooting Common Sign-In Problems
If you can't sign in, first check that you're using the correct email address or phone number. Uber Eats is case-sensitive for passwords, so make sure Caps Lock is off. If you're still stuck, try clearing your browser's cache and cookies (on a computer) or uninstalling and reinstalling the app (on a phone), then try signing in again.
If you're getting an error message that says your account is locked or suspended, it usually means Uber Eats detected unusual activity. Check your email for a message from Uber Eats explaining what happened. You may need to verify your identity or change your password before you can sign in again. If you don't see an email, contact Uber Eats support through the app or website.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I sign in with a different email than the one I used to create my account?
No. You must sign in with the email address or phone number you registered with. If you want to change the email on your account, go to your account settings and update it there. After you change it, you'll sign in with the new email going forward.
What if I'm getting a "password incorrect" message but I'm sure it's right?
Passwords are case-sensitive, so check that Caps Lock is off. Also make sure you're not including extra spaces before or after your password. If you're still having trouble, use the "Forgot password?" option to reset it. You'll receive a link by email that lets you create a new password.
Do I need to sign in every time I order?
No. If you check "Stay signed in" when you log in, your account will remain open on that device. You'll only need to sign in again if you manually sign out, if the app is uninstalled, or if your session expires due to inactivity over a long period.
Is it safe to use "Continue with Google" or "Continue with Apple"?
Yes. These sign-in methods are find and widely used. Your Google or Apple password is never shared with Uber Eats—you enter it directly on Google's or Apple's website. You can disconnect your Uber Eats account from Google or Apple anytime in your account settings.
What should I do if I think someone else is using my account?
Change your password when ready using the "Forgot password?" option. Then go to your account settings and check "Manage active sessions" or "Sign out of all devices" to remove any sessions you don't recognize. If you see orders you didn't place, contact Uber Eats support and report the unauthorized activity.
