Helpful tips! Helped me in Mykonos!
Our party of 4 had a fairly pleasant experience using Aegean Taxi. The app is surprisingly easy to use and not dissimilar to using Uber with a few caveats, which I’ll list here:
1) you pay after finishing your ride, like all other Taxis on the island;
2) the app doesn’t show your driver’s ETA after confirming you’ll be picked up, instead a car icon will be shown en-route to you on the map;
3) I used a popular spot for Taxi drop off and pick-up in Little Venice and there were no issues — look at a local Mykonos map to find the taxi drop off / pickup spot;
4) I was asked to sign a waiver before our ride started, I’m sure this is standard but it was all in Greek so I don’t know;
5) There are multiple options for the type of ride — by economy car, van, boat, etc. we chose van.
Overall the experience with the app was pleasant. You’re not required to give much information up-front other than your cell phone number, name, and phone location.

Terrible app
Don’t bother they don’t tell you if driver rejects booking
Scam
Refuses to use the taxi meter, charges 3x the prices displayed on their site, and tried to tell you the fixed price is better, just another way for bad people in this country to rip off tourists, they should all go out of business.
Unreliable
I pre booked a taxi for 7:30 AM as I had an appointment collect my son from Rhodes the airport via hire car. I received confirmation via the app the previous evening of who the taxi driver would be. On the morning, no taxi arrived. I attempted to contact someone through the telephone number which was not answered. After waiting for 15 minutes past the scheduled pick up time a different cab had to be ordered via alternative company. The whole scenario made me very late. I have received no communication, explanation or apology despite writing an email and message via instagram. Avoid using this app and book taxi’s via more reliable methods.
