Late Sunday night, Uber changed the website so that this hack was no longer accessible. No fun, Uber.
Uber relies on a system that allows driver and passenger to rate one another, and while passengers can see drivers' ratings, they can't see their own.
Until now! Developer Aaron Landy figured out a neat hack which you can try out here:
1. Log into your account on Chrome and then open console by pressing CMD + Option + J on Chrome.
if(window.Uber.pingData === false) { location.reload(); } else { alert("Name : " + window.Uber.pingData.client.firstName + " " + window.Uber.pingData.client.lastName + "\nEmail : "+ window.Uber.pingData.client.email + "\nPassenger rating is : "+ window.Uber.pingData.client.rating); }
3. After the code is pasted, the window will reload. Leave the console open and repaste the Javascript code, which should yield a pop-up window with your rating:
What's your Uber passenger rating? https://t.co/UL6o132Q7A
Many people on Twitter were excited to share their ratings:
My Uber "passenger rating" is 5 https://t.co/5rTEwV72xY
I have a 4.8 Uber rating
Although some people were too scared to find out their scores:
Too afraid to check my rating; I farted in an uber once.
I am genuinely nervous to get my Uber passenger rating. This is like report card day. http://t.co/SIRTr1BEbe
And some people were very understanding of why their ratings were so low:
My Uber passenger rating is 2.4 probably because I munch on a reheated tupperware container of leftover garlic and cumin pasta in every ride
While other people were disappointed to find out their scores weren't higher:
