One thing I've never understood, Uber drivers keep complaining about the 25% commission but they still stick to the app.

Why don't they create a local app and urge people to move to it?

There are local apps such as Little Cab, but customers are stuck in Uber and Bolt. Ni ka Airtel and Telcom providing cheaper options but customers don't give a damn about them.

I think it's the duty of the Uber and Bolt drivers to educate customers why they want people to move with them to the new apps. Otherwise they will continue suffering and nobody will pay these off app rates.
 
Siku za kwanza ya ride hailing apps, pesa ilikuwa kwa wingi and well regulated. For example, one couldn't enroll a kadudu on Uber before Taxify, now Bolt came and changed the game. I remember making enough from a Tiida in 2016 till it bought another vehicle.

Years later, over saturation of the cabs especially with the intro of <1,000 CC cars means the principle of higher supply leading to a decrease in price is at play.

Alafu if you are just an investor and not behind the wheel, those you employ usually will show you dust ata hutaamini. In fact, if you're an owner, you prefer card payments as they're automated. Kadere yeye anafanya kitu inaitwa Karura where the rider cancels and they agree on a price. That and other michezo have contributed to this mess.

4k after expenses is good money. They need a good strategy of how they will manage move the people to the new app.
