Latest Update: Video Ads Will Be Shown Up

While waiting for a ride to show up or in transit, you will see video ads in Uber and the ads will be up to 90 seconds long. This will be applied to users in the US starting this week, with planned expansion to the UK, France, Australia, and other markets later this year. The video ads in the apps will be muted by default and you don’t need to worry about the noise it might cause.
