### 5/5 — Amazing tool!

*2026-03-26*

This app is fabulous for comparing rideshare services and works as described!

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2026-03-20*

Just needs Robotaxi and Zoox added and then it will be my one stop shop for ride hailing

**Developer response:** Hi, please send an email to support@hackney.app.

### 5/5 — Very Useful

*2026-03-06*

Love this app! saved my wallet a bunch of times ngl

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2026-02-25*

Works, would like support for bolt though whenever I am in Europe!

### 5/5 — Incredible

*2026-02-23*

Thank you so much for making this! I've been thinking about how much I wanted this, cause I'm always comparing Uber, Lyft, and Waymo. The best part is that you OAuth with your account so you get your own personalized price, discounts and all included. Absolutely incredible. So glad this app exists, and works perfectly. Cheers!

### 5/5 — Waymo Broken, Robotaxi & Zoox missing

*2026-02-21*

this app is great but Waymo was working fine until I downloaded the latest update which supposedly fixes Waymo and now it is broken for me. The app needs to add Robotaxi and Zoox ASAP and then it will be my one stop shop for ride hailing

**Developer response:** Hi, please send an email to support@hackney.app.

### 5/5 — Curb is generally the cheapest

*2026-01-25*

Been using this app, great app as Curb generally is the cheapest and the rides are insured!

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2026-01-25*

Nice job, Developer! Thanks for making it easier to get around town!

### 5/5 — Impressively done!

*2026-01-25*

Swish and smart. Thanks for solving a pain point.

### 5/5 — Saw on Reddit, Amazing app

*2026-01-25*

Such a great app that needs to be more well known. I will definitely be sharing this with my friends and family.

### 5/5 — Can’t Get Waymo Login to Work

*2026-01-24*

I can't get Waymo to work. I typically use a passkey, which errors out to a Google "Something went wrong page"

When I use a password it does 2FA through my Gmail app or a recovery code (I tried both). That goes through, but when I return to Hackney the account isn't connected

Uber works

### 1/5 — Waymo won’t connect

*2026-02-08*

I read about this on Reddit and was excited to sign up. Connecting Uber and Lyft was seamless, but after half a dozen tries to connect Waymo, where the system failed each time, I gave up. Perhaps they’re having auth issues between their system, Google and Waymo. 🤷🏼‍♀️

**Developer response:** This has been fixed in the latest update. Please update the app and try again.

### 1/5 — Failed to link up correctly

*2026-02-07*

Awful. Wouldn’t link up to Lyft. Kept saying I had the wrong number and password but I put in the code they sent to my messages.  I don’t have time for this.

**Developer response:** Hi, can you send an email to support@hackney.app?

### 1/5 — App is garbage

*2026-02-06*

It won’t connect my Lyft account because 6 years ago I once drove for Lyft and it says I have a “driver account”.  There is no separate driver app or account, you use Lyft as a commuter with the same login, etc.  Hackney won’t recognize my Waymo login.  This renders the app virtually useless as I need to log into way to see the price separately from Hackney and I have to login to Lyft to see my price separately…. All the app does is show my estimated Uber cost…. So I’m STILL opening 3 apps to see the price.  Don’t bother downloading this garbage

**Developer response:** The app does not yet support Lyft driver accounts, but we may add support in the future. Even though you don’t drive for Lyft anymore, Lyft’s systems differentiate between accounts that are rider-only and accounts that have signed up as a driver. As for Waymo, the issue you experienced has been fixed in the latest update.

### 2/5 — Lyft and Waymo logins didn’t work for me - only Uber

*2026-02-06*

My Lyft account is both rider and driver. App will not let me choose rider profile/account and blocks me from connecting. This is a common use case that should be addressed.

**Developer response:** The issue with Waymo login has been fixed in the latest update. Lyft driver accounts aren’t yet supported.

### 3/5 — Great idea, sketchy transparency

*2026-08-21*

It’s so hard to really trust an app like this because you are giving it the ability to operate on your behalf with your own security credentials. You also run the risk of all the ride share companies shutting down your personal accounts for abusing their APIs. If the developer open sourced the codebase it would do a lot for increasing trust and transparency

### 4/5 — great idea but not accurate enough

*2026-06-28*

product is a great idea and I would totally use it except it is not good at getting the price right for example Lyft has a flash sale and the price does not account for that and gives the base price which is just not right and since lyft does that pretty often i find that checking Uber and then Lyft isn't that arduous of a task and is usually easier for me to do that instead of using hackney because I can't be confident that it's correct

### 5/5 — App of my dreams

*2026-06-22*

This app is unbelievable. I had something like this back in 2016 but it was shut down. I’m so glad that somebody brought this back! It works so well.

### 5/5 — Good but Lyft doesn’t work

*2026-05-04*

App is great for Uber and Waymo, but Lyft integration does not work. I enter my phone number but then never get a text code to enter. 

Update: I worked with the developer and they fixed my problem, changing rating to 5 stars! Great app.
