EverydayUBER - Analyze workflow + identify opportunity

DESIGN INQUIRY
Analyze UBER's existing workflow and identify one new area of opportunity. Think about the customer's journey and look for gaps or disjointed experiences in that journey. Try to find a new use case and flesh out a new feature that you think would be great for UBER to develop.

OPPORTUNITY
 
Step 7: User is waiting for the car to arrive. Why is this an opportunity? Because wait times and fares are inconsistent even as the journey itself remains the same.

- Users who use ridesharing apps tend to have a fixed set of destinations - i.e. work, home, gym etc. 
 
- Saving time and convenience are the major reasons why people use ridesharing apps
ANNOTATED WIREFRAMES
I used the wireframes I produced for the original UBER workflow to make some preliminary sketches of how this feature could be incorporated.
