### 3/5 — Today was bad

*2025-01-17, version 6.17.0*

13 year old cab with 150,000 miles and badly stained seats. Previous 2 rides excellent.

### 4/5 — It’s pretty good but..

*2018-11-14, version 5.5.32*

It would be better if cabs actually answered the call. I had to start taking Uber which just made me feel dirty but beats waiting for 30 minutes.

### 2/5 — Good attempt

*2015-02-05, version 1.5.27.4*

Apps not terrible but it had a hard time getting my final location. Downloaded this because über was in surge and no cab companies were answering their phones... Got a cab assigned very fast. He was right around the corner! He stayed parked for 10 minutes not moving. I canceled and paid the über surge. I was in my über x within 2 minutes. On my über ride I literally drove by the cab assigned  to me. Long story short, still picky cab drivers who won't pick up for certain locations. It's not the only app that's killing cab companies.  It's the drivers too.

### 5/5 — Very reliable

*2014-06-22, version 1.3.25*

Cabs come much faster when using the app versus calling dispatch. This is my go to app for getting taxis. It might not be as flashy as uber, but at least you know the drivers aren't sketchy.

### 3/5 — Fine but buggy

*2014-04-30, version 1.3.25*

It's nothing fancy and works well most of the time. The company is reliable and usually right on time. Be careful if you ever get an error message though. I got an error this morning that told me the app couldn't complete the booking and gave me the number for dispatch. So I tired the app again, same error. And again...same error. So I finally called in and ordered a cab. Turns out my "uncompleted" bookings went through and I had ordered 5 cabs in total. Dispatch - and the cabbies - we're not happy.

### 5/5 — Always works for me!

*2014-04-08, version 1.3.25*

Great for ordering cabs in advance, which you can't do with any of the new companies !

### 5/5 — Ville girl

*2014-03-22, version 1.3.25*

I use this app all the time. I've used Uber and have been overcharged with surge prices. This is the real deal. It gives confirmation and reminders. Love, love this service. Company is 1st rate!!

### 3/5 — Has potential

*2014-03-21, version 1.3.25*

I want this app to drive my business from the anti-taxi companies, I do. But it won't let me input addresses, doesn't update car gps & doesn't allow for charging to my card through the app (with the option to add tip if one could dream....). It doesn't search for locations when you try to do that, either. But you can book a cab without calling, and you can note that you'll be paying by card. So.

Please, devs get it to work for real!

### 5/5 — Great Cab Company!

*2013-12-17, version 1.3.25*

I travel every week.  Even though I live in Cambridge, I now use Green and Yellow Cab of Somerville exclusively.  I really like them because I can make a reservation in advance and be sure that a cab will show up on time to take me to the airport.  Even when I call at the last minute, a cab comes within 10 minutes.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2024-10-21, version 6.16.0*

When I try to arrange a pick up from my apartment, right up the street from a very busy metropolitan area teeming with tourists, I get a “we don’t service that area” message.  When I try to arrange a pick up from another location, I get a “We’re sorry! Something went wrong!  Please try again.” message.

### 1/5 — If u want us not to use uber get your app up to speed

*2017-06-12, version 3.17.637*

App is buggy

### 1/5 — Doesn't work with ios9

*2015-09-28, version 2.0.13*

Plz fix! Waited 8 minutes for someone to answer the phone!

### 1/5 — Avoid at all cost!

*2015-03-18, version 2.0.13*

Driver will take you through unnecessary routes to make money! Don't use this service!

### 1/5 — This app no longer works

*2015-03-01, version 1.5.27.4*

As one other reviewer said, it's unusable. It requires a destination to book the cab, but when I enter my destination it takes forever to register. Bottom line - it's faster to call.

### 1/5 — Was cool...

*2015-02-12, version 1.5.27.4*

Use to love this app but now it's completely unusable.  Moving onto Uber.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2014-03-09, version 1.3.25*

Cabs are super unreliable. Booked for a 1 o clock pickup and got a conformation email saying the cab would be there at 3 O clock. And sure enough 1 came and went and no taxi. Terrible service. Please don't waste your time or money with this company.

### 1/5 — Awful

*2014-02-28, version 1.3.25*

Don't call when theyre here and there are no alerts on the app.  Hung up on when tried to get another cab. Don't use this app unless you're willing to wait outside for a cab in a Boston winter.

### 1/5 — Worst taxy company

*2013-11-24, version 1.3.25*

This is the worst cab company i know, most of the drivers are rude and don't even speak English, some times i rather walk then take one of this cabs!

### 2/5 — Problems

*2016-09-30, version 2.4.5*

I don't know if the issue is with the app or with the company, but I've had nothing but trouble with this. It takes forever to get a cab assigned, and when they do, sometimes the assigned cab just disappears on its way. Or says it's picked you up (so you can't cancel or do anything) or says your ride was completed while you're still standing in the rain in your original location. Definitely needs some serious work if it ever wants to compete with Uber!

### 5/5 — Great local Somerville can

*2025-11-05, version 6.23.0*

The app makes it as convenient as uber and Lyft

### 5/5 — Logan from Charlestown Navy Yard

*2025-10-21, version 6.23.0*

I really like using this service because they drop you off right at your terminal. This really helpful if you have extra luggage. My ride showed up right on time.

### 5/5 — Green Cab Review

*2024-10-19, version 6.16.0*

Excellent service.

### 5/5 — Wonderful

*2023-05-10, version 6.6.1*

He came early to pick me up and the service was great.  
Thank you

### 5/5 — More than driver

*2022-12-05, version 6.3.0*

He is a wonderful guy that he always helps me lot.

### 5/5 — Very Reliable

*2022-11-01, version 6.3.0*

We use Green & Yellow cab for early morning trips from Somerville to the airport. They are always very reliable. My main complaint is the condition of some of the cabs. We have been in a few that are downright filthy.

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2022-10-12, version 6.3.0*

The app is convenient and user friendly.

### 5/5 — Great Cab Company but App needs Work

*2019-08-11, version 5.5.32*

I used this App for the about the fourth time since I installed it, but for first Time in about a year the other day. 
The comment section does not transmit to the driver. The driver did not get my instructions for finding my house and the office claimed that I didn’t enter any instructions into the App at all, which I absolutely did. 

The other thing that’s been happening since the App was released is that after booking a cab via the App, I will get notices, including within my emailed confirmation and receipts, that “next time please book using our App”. In other words I get chastised for not using the App when I just DID use the App.

The overall functionality is good, but occasionally buggy as well.
For example, i made an error in the address of my destination but it was hard to correct. Its also cumbersome to cancel a request prior to submitting it. 

This being said, this is by far my favorite Cab Company. Just fix your App please!

### 5/5 — LOVE THE APP

*2015-02-12, version 1.5.27.4*

This app is amazing. Instead of me calling, I can use this app to book my cab. I can even find out where the cab is. This app is great to use!! 😉👍

### 5/5 — Awesome App

*2014-12-20, version 1.5.271*

I travel a lot for work and this app makes it easy! I make a reservation days before I'm flying out and my cab is waiting for me when I walk out the door. I know I'm getting a licensed, insured driver.
