To be ???? ????? ????? ??????more specific, DoorDash added a new feature this summer that nudges users who haven't left a tip to, well, leave a tip, according to an Insider report on the subject. It was part of a larger update originally rolled out in late June that lets people juice up a tip for up to a month after a delivery order. Instacart and UberEats also have similar tip nudging features, per Insider.
