This page aggregates measured, corroborated evidence: donors' iPhones recorded apps contacting this domain, every claim below was reported by separate accepted donations and published under a human verdict (later rows for an approved app inherit its verdict). A contact is a measurement, not an accusation — it does not show what data was sent.

What our research panel found AI-drafted · human-reviewed
We ask several independent AI models the same question and publish their answers separately — cross-vendor agreement is evidence against fabrication, and disagreement is worth seeing. 3 of 3 models answered, overall confidence high. A human reviewed this domain's claims before anything here published.
Anthropic Claude — first-party
api.lyft.com is the first-party backend API domain for the Lyft app itself (bundle com.zimride.instant is Lyft's known bundle ID), so the contact is inherent to the app's core functionality. The app's label already declares collection of location, account, and device identifier data, so this flow implies nothing beyond the declared label.
OpenAI — first-party
api.lyft.com is a Lyft-branded API domain and most likely first-party infrastructure for the Lyft app. The privacy label declares extensive collection and sharing categories, so this contact alone does not imply an undeclared data flow.
Google Gemini — first-party
api.lyft.com is a first-party API domain belonging to Lyft for its core service functionality. The contact matches the app's own domain and does not indicate undisclosed third-party tracking or data sharing.
