Uber app - Allow Access

When setting up the Uber app for the first time they give you a heads up about the benefits of allowing notifications.

Planner app - Onboarding

These are screen grabs from Planner app. 

Screen 1


Screen 2


Screen 3


When I tapped the "Get started" button on the previous screen, the allow access pop-over appeared. 


When I tapped allow, this is what I saw. 


This flow of Allow Access pop-over can be startling since they have not expressed any benefits of allowing notifications.

Tim Hortons - Allow Access

When first setting up the Tim Horton's app they trigger a branded pop-over:

When I tapped "Allow" that triggered the system's allow access pop-over to appear. 

This approach is good since it eases the user into allowing access. 

I am curious to know what would have happened if I clicked "Don't Allow" on the branded pop-over, maybe they would ask me later.

Waze App - Taking HOV lane or toll road?

When I opened the Waze app this pop-over appeared.

When I tapped the "Add pass" button I was directed to this screen.

I know they want to promote a new feature to everyone, but shouldn't they know if I travel along HOV and toll roads from my route history? 

Kudos to them however for showing the Local passes right away and then hiding the other, probably less used, passes under a button.
