Sprint announced today that it will be adding a new app to its lineup of pre-installed software on “most” new Android phones: Uber. Sprint subscribers new to Uber in the month of December will also get a credit of up to $20 from Sprint to be used on their first ride through the service.
The ridesharing app will now be loaded on new devices from two of the four major US carriers, following AT&T’s similar announcement this summer.
We can all use a hand every now and then. Imagine having your arms full of packages after a long day of holiday shopping and simply tapping an app on your smartphone, a car arrives, you get in, enjoy a comfortable ride and when you arrive at your destination you don’t even need to worry about pulling out cash or a credit card to pay your driver. That’s just one scenario that illustrates the convenience of Uber – a technology platform that matches individuals who are looking for rides with pre-screened drivers.
Or you’re at a holiday party and everyone is enjoying a few cocktails. An Uber driver and a safe ride home is only a touch away – meaning you won’t have to worry about getting behind the wheel after a night out.
Now offered in more than 140 U.S. cities and more than 45 countries, Uber is a helpful and efficient way to get around while traveling this holiday season.
Deal on First Uber Ride
During December Sprint customers who establish a new Uber account will receive $20 off their first Uber ride using the offer code SPRINT.1 Customers must visit the registration site and use the offer code SPRINT when completing registration.
How to get the app:
Customers activating select Sprint Android smartphones will find the Uber app already on their device home screen and can click on the app icon, which will take them to Google Play to download the app.
The free Uber app is available to download for Android, iOS and Windows Phones.
The Uber app can also be found in the Sprint Zone application.
