Is Lyft down for everyone or just you?

Our automated checks are reaching Lyft normally right now, and it answered our last one in 98ms. That makes any trouble you are hitting more likely to be local to your connection, account or network than a full outage, which usually means you can fix it from your end.

What to do if Lyft is down for just you

  • Force-quit and reopen the app. These apps hold a long-lived session that goes stale and returns errors on every request until it is refreshed.
  • Check whether the website works when the app does not. The two use different clients against the same backend and often fail apart.
  • Turn location services off and on. A stale or refused location fix reads as no restaurants or drivers available rather than as an error.
  • Retry the payment method rather than the order. A declined card mid-checkout looks identical to the service being unavailable.
