In the ultimate 'fuck you' to customers, you will get cheaper rides on Uber under Android if you have the Lyft app installed...
- omeid2 7y agoBecause on iOS they can't detect apps, as far as I know.
- bigiain 7y agoNot using App Store legal APIs anyway. But its not like they've let _that_ stop them in the past...
- arcticbull 7y agoAFAIK what they do on iOS is track 'behaviors' -- i.e. you get to the quote screen, app-switch, then come back a few seconds later, they know you're price-shopping and can re-quote and lower their prices.
- masonic 7y agoIf Uber has access to file storage, can't it look for file names specific to Lyft?
- omeid2 7y agoUber does not, iOS apps are sandboxed. Further more, if you use `canOpenURL` trick to check for anything but trying to fallback when you're actually trying to open the url/app, they will flag you during the review.
