To schedule a ride with Lyft
Open the App and enter your pickup location.

In the same window to the right of your pickup location is a tiny little clock.

Tap the little clock and you will see to the left a scrolling window that will let you pick the day of your pickup. This will go out up to 7 days.

To the left, you will set the time of your pickup. Pickup times are in increments of 10-minute windows.

Double check your pickup date and time.
Set your destination as usual.

If all looks good, hit Schedule Lyft in the app.

You can cancel the scheduled pickup any time up to approximately 15 minutes before the pickup time. (This time may change or vary, so if you do need to cancel, be sure to do it ASAP to avoid a cancellation fee). The cancellation fee($10 usually) goes into effect if your driver has started your way and invested time in picking you up and you cancel during this time frame.

You can cancel by opening the Lyft app and tapping on the box on the upper right-hand corner that has your scheduled ride listed.
