"Women+ Connect puts women and nonbinary people in the driver's seat — literally — by letting them choose to match with more women and nonbinary riders," the ride-share company said in its blog on Tuesday. The feature would be a preference that both drivers and riders would need to opt into, and Lyft noted that it won’t necessarily guarantee a match.
Women and nonbinary riders who want to take advantage of the feature must go to their user profile and tap the "gender" button. At the bottom of the page, users can then toggle on the Women+ Connect option to increase the chances of matching with women and nonbinary drivers.
