> Do they allow you to set a destination area so that your fares are limited to this, or do you just get to review and accept fares so you can choose ones in the right direction?

Uber didn't last I checked, but Lyft does.

Uber has had this feature since I started driving with them in December 2016.

You can only use it twice a day, however.

Ostensibly this is for use at the beginning & end of your shift to help with the “commute”. But you’ll probably be find yourself out in the sticks with a choice of waiting long periods for each local ride request (~$2-$3 keep per ride), or using the destination geofence in the middle of the shift to avoid double-digits is deadheading.

It's also great for literally carpooling on your real-job commute. You'll be online at peak times and with the destination set in the most popular directions.
