Not every time. If the driver is friendly, the car is clean, and the ride goes smoothly, I usually leave a tip. But if the service is poor or the driver is rude, I don\'t feel obligated to tip just because the app asks me to. For me, tips should reflect the quality of the service, not be automatic.
