Log out of Uber on your phone or computer in under one minute
To log out of the Uber app, open the app, tap the account icon (usually your profile picture or initials in the bottom right corner), scroll down, and tap "Log Out" or "Sign Out". On the web version at uber.com, click your profile picture in the top right, then select "Log Out". The app will return to the login screen when ready.
You should log out if you're using a shared device, borrowing someone else's phone, or selling a device. Logging out removes your payment methods, saved addresses, and ride history from that device — but your account itself stays active and your data remains safe in Uber's servers.
If you can't find the logout button or the app is frozen, force-closing the app and clearing your session data will also sign you out. This guide covers the standard logout process for all devices and what to do if you run into problems.
Key Takeaways
- The logout button is in your account settings, accessible through your profile picture or initials at the bottom right of the app.
- Logging out on one device does not log you out on other devices — you must log out separately on each phone, tablet, or computer.
- If you've lost access to a device, you can remotely sign out all active sessions from your account settings on any other device or the web.
- Logging out is different from deleting your account — your Uber account and all your data remain intact after you log out.
How to log out on iPhone or iPad
Open the Uber app and look for your profile picture or initials in a circle at the bottom right of the screen. Tap it to open your account menu. Scroll down through the menu until you see "Log Out" or "Sign Out" — the exact wording depends on your app version.
Tap "Log Out". A confirmation message may appear asking if you're sure. Tap "Log Out" again to confirm. The app will close your session and return you to the login screen. Your payment methods and saved addresses will no longer appear on this device.
If the button doesn't appear, make sure you've scrolled all the way to the bottom of the menu. Some versions of the app place it below settings like "Preferences" or "Help".
How to log out on Android
Open the Uber app and tap your profile picture or initials at the bottom right corner. This opens your account menu. Scroll down until you find "Log Out" or "Sign Out".
Tap the logout button. You may see a confirmation asking if you want to log out. Confirm by tapping "Log Out" again. The app will sign you out and return to the login screen.
Android devices sometimes cache app data differently than iPhones, so if you don't see the logout button after scrolling, try closing the app completely (swipe it away in your recent apps list) and opening it again. This refreshes the menu.
How to log out on the Uber website
Go to uber.com in any web browser and sign in if you're not already. Look for your profile picture or initials in the top right corner of the page. Click it to open a dropdown menu.
Click "Log Out" from the dropdown. Your session will end and you'll be returned to the Uber homepage. You can also click "Account Settings" first if you want to review your information before logging out.
Logging out on the website does not log you out on the mobile app — you must log out separately on each device.
What to do if you can't find the logout button
If you've scrolled through your account menu and don't see a logout option, the app may be outdated. Go to the App Store (iPhone) or Google Play Store (Android), search for Uber, and check if an update is available. Install any pending updates and try again.
If updating doesn't help, force-close the app and clear its cache. On iPhone, go to Settings > General > iPhone Storage, find Uber, and tap "Offload App" (this removes the app but keeps your data). Then reinstall it from the App Store. On Android, go to Settings > Apps > Uber > Storage > Clear Cache. Reopen the app and try logging out again.
If you still cannot log out, you can remotely sign out from another device or from the web version. Log in to your account on a different phone or at uber.com, go to Account Settings or Security, and look for an option to "Sign out of all devices" or "End all sessions". This will log you out everywhere at once.
How to remotely log out if you've lost a device
If you've lost your phone or given it away and want to log out without access to that device, sign in to your Uber account on another phone, tablet, or computer. Go to your account settings or security settings.
Look for an option labeled "Active Sessions", "Devices", "Sign Out Everywhere", or "End All Sessions". Click or tap it. This will sign you out of your Uber account on every device at once. You'll need to log back in on any device you still use.
If you can't find this option in settings, contact Uber support through the app or website and tell them you need to sign out of a lost device. They can do this for you.
The difference between logging out and deleting your account
Logging out removes your session from that specific device. Your account, payment methods, ride history, and saved addresses remain in Uber's system and are not affected. You can log back in anytime from any device using your email and password.
Deleting your account is permanent. It removes all your data from Uber's servers, cancels any active rides, and closes your account. You cannot undo this action. If you only want to stop using Uber on one device, log out instead of deleting your account.
If you want to delete your account entirely, go to Account Settings, scroll to the bottom, and look for "Delete Account" or "Close Account". Uber will ask you to confirm and may ask why you're leaving. After deletion, you cannot use that email address to create a new Uber account for 30 days.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does logging out on my phone also log me out on my computer?
No. Logging out on one device does not affect your session on other devices. If you use Uber on your phone, tablet, and computer, you must log out separately on each one. This is intentional — it lets you stay logged in on devices you use regularly while logging out on shared or borrowed devices.
Will I lose my saved addresses and payment methods when I log out?
Your saved addresses and payment methods will disappear from that specific device, but they remain in your Uber account. When you log back in on any device, they will reappear. Your data is stored on Uber's servers, not on your phone.
What happens to my active ride if I log out?
You cannot log out while a ride is in progress. The logout button will be unavailable or grayed out. Wait until your ride is complete, then log out. If you force-close the app during a ride, your driver may not be able to reach you.
Can I log out without knowing my password?
Yes. You don't need your password to log out — you only need access to the device where you're logged in. Just tap your profile picture and select "Log Out". If you want to log out remotely on a device you no longer have, you'll need to log in on another device first, which may require your password.
Is it safe to stay logged in on a shared device?
No. If you use Uber on a shared device, always log out when you're done. Anyone with access to that device can see your saved addresses, payment methods, and ride history. They could also request a ride using your account and payment method. Log out every time you finish using the app on a shared device.
