Not enough drivers. I've been to Munich twice this year - the first time, I took an Uber from the airport, but it took a while for him (15+ min) to pick me up. On my second trip, I took the S-Bahn to city center, which is a better idea anyway.

And in both trips, when I opened up the Uber app while in or near the city center, there might be one car, but it usually said "no cars available."
