Your first shift, in 5 steps
The short answer
On your phone: start a shift when you leave home, pause for breaks, end it when you’re done, add your fares, then read the recap.
These steps are for your phone. On a computer, Drive says Start your shift on your phone: start it there, or log it afterwards from Shift History with Add a past shift.
- Open Drive and tap Start shift when you leave home.
- Stopping for a break? Tap Pause, then Confirm Pause. Tap Resume shift when you set off again.
- At the end, tap End shift. Enter your end odometer or the km you drove.
- Enter each app’s running day total under Earnings by platform, or leave it blank if the fares aren’t in yet. Tap Complete Shift.
- Read the recap: your fares, what came out of them, and your take-home for the shift.
Never use your phone while the car is moving. Every step here is for when you’ve stopped.
