CTOnews.com At its annual Go / Get product showcase yesterday, Uber announced a series of updates and upgrades to its app and platform, including new features for teenagers, family profiles, Uber car seats and more.

Family profiles allow people to link multiple Uber accounts together so users can receive real-time location updates while paying for rides and Uber takeaways from one account.

CTOnews.com learned from Uber's official blog that the teen service, which will launch May 22 in a dozen cities in the U.S. and Canada, allows parents of children aged 13 to 17 to contact drivers directly during trips, ensures that only highly rated drivers pick up their children and report problems on their behalf. Drivers can also choose not to pick up teenagers.

Uber wrote in a blog post about the feature: "We designed accounts for teenagers with built-in privacy security features, including trip verification, trip checking and recording. In addition, real-time travel tracking allows parents to track the progress of travel so they know exactly where their child is going and who is driving. "
