Uber has finally rolled out scheduled rides in Singapore, allowing users to pre-book a ride up to a month in advance.
The feature was previously available in June only for business users (https://www.techinasia.com/uber-finally-lets-schedule-rides-time-catch) here.

With the feature, riders will get to schedule their trip 15 minutes to 30 days in advance. This is aimed at getting more people to rely on ride-sharing services for trips at odd hours — such as early morning flights — where drivers may **t be on standby to pick up a ride request.
Uber unlocked the feature for consumers in Singapore shortly after neighbouring Malaysia got it last week (http://www.themalaymailonline.com/drive/article/uber-rolls-out-scheduled-rides-at-the-tap-of-a-button-get-your-ride-when-yo). Last month, the ride-sharing firm rolled it out in New York City (https://hameed.nwar.uk/vb/mashable.com/2016/09/22/uber-scheduled-rides-nyc/?utm_campaign=&utm_context=textlink&utm_medium=rss&utm_source=) and Australia (http://mashable.com/2016/09/14/uber-scheduled-rides-australia/?utm_campaign=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&utm_cid=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial). In August, the U.K. became the first country in Europe (http://mashable.com/2016/08/25/uber-london-scheduled-rides/?utm_campaign=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&utm_cid=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial) to receive scheduled rides, and some other European countries, including Romania and Croatia, have recently gotten the feature.
