Update profile photo

To protect everyone using the platform, your profile photo can only be uploaded if your appearance has changed making you unrecognizable, such as:

• Significant weight changes
• Facial deformation
• Medical conditions
• Plastic or cosmetic surgery

Uber automatically crops profile photos to display a face-focused view. If your photo appears off-center or incorrectly cropped, or if your appearance has changed since taking your original photo, please chat with us below to request an update.

Remember, a good profile photo should have the following elements:

• No hats or sunglasses (eyeglasses and religious garments are allowed)
• Full face and top of shoulders
• Good lighting
• Not blurry
• Only one person in the photo
• Face is centered in the frame and directly facing the camera
• No filters, photos of a photo, or photoshopped images

If you’re transgender or transitioning, please see I need to update my profile photo for help with changing your profile photo.
