As the title says..  From yesterday, April 8, Uber no longer operates here. It was bought out by grab, so you need to have the Grab App on your phone to use the service.  Pity, I liked Uber, their prices were nearly always lower than Grab, and the local taxis.

I'm in the USA right now, and just installed the Grab App. but every time I try to open it I get a message that says looks like we weren't able to connect to server. and I tried Grab driver app but they were asking for a lot of permissions like access to my pics, witch I wasn't comfortable with

I don't know about the US.. Uber gave up on SE Asia, and accepted a merger deal with Grab, for about 27% equity in the merged company..

monopoly time.

less competition the higher the price.

sad news
