Hey there @BDGR, it's nice to see you here! How you doing?
Use the Uber app on your phone to set any preset locations, such as your home or work address. For instructions, see Uber’s help article.

Thank you, Madre. I still, have a problem changing to an alternate pickup or destination address. I have saved three or four addresses in the Uber app as favorites, but they don't come up. All I see are the default work and home locations.

Likewise - doesn't work. I can't set a destination other than work / home

Thanks for stopping by @TEP46! As it has been mentioned previously, your watch uses your preset home and work addresses as your default pickup and destination locations. To change either location, tap it and select a different address.
Important: You can select your current location, detected using your phone’s GPS signal, a preset address you set through the Uber app, or a recently used address.
The address you want to add: has been detected using your phone's GPS signal? Was set previously over the Uber app? In case was a recently used address, please ensure to add it via GPS or the Uber app.
I look forward to your reply, in order to investigate further.

Hi MarreFitbit,
I had submitted a new idea to add new features to the Fitbit Uber app. Right the features available are too limited.
Best regards,

Hi, I've got saved favourites in the Uber app but they do not appear on the watch - I can only select work or home, nowhere else.
I can set my destination as my present location using GPS but only the above as my destination.

As the others have stated, this feature is not working correctly in the Uber app on the fitbit versa. It has to be something on either fitbit or uber's end. When will this be fixed as I would like to be able to utilize the uber app on my watch for destinations other than just work and home. I have added multiple destinations on the uber app, but they do not sync over to the fitbit.

@Chelsea.Sierra Welcome to the Fitbit Community! Thanks for reporting that you are also experiencing the same situation with the Uber app on your Fitbit watch.
Uber is an app that requires access to the internet. This is how it transfers the destinations to the app on your watch. Make sure your phone is nearby with the Fitbit app running in the background and Bluetooth turned on. Also, make sure all of the app permissions are enabled.
If non of that will work, have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app?
Hope this helps. Keep me posted!

As stated before, nothing works. not uninstalling, re-downloading, or anything. This is a technical problem on either uber or fitbits end. Very frustrating that this issue still has not been resolved with multiple people stating that they are having the same problem.

Hey there @Chelsea.Sierra, thanks for getting back! I'm sorry to hear about the inconveniences you've been having with the Uber app.
I'd recommend taking a look at: How do I set up and troubleshoot apps on my Fitbit device?
If you're still having inconveniences after following the tips and recommendations, I'd appreciate if you can send me a screen shot of what you're getting when trying to change the destination on the Uber app. Also, did you check if the Uber app does not have a pending update?
I'll be around!
