Riders

To change your profile avatar:

  1. Open the Hitchhyke app.
  2. Tap 'Edit Profile'.
  3. Tap the edit icon next to your avatar.
  4. Select a new avatar from the library.
  5. Follow the on-screen prompts to confirm your selection.

Drivers

Drivers have both a profile photo and an avatar. The profile photo is visible to passengers after they request a ride, while the avatar is used similarly to how Riders select theirs.

To update your avatar:

  1. Open the Hitchhyke Driver app.
  2. Tap 'Edit Profile'.
  3. Tap the edit icon next to your avatar.
  4. Select a new avatar from the library.
