### 4/5 — Well done

*2014-04-08, version 2.2*

This is a clone of the top hk taxi app, but i can't deny this is a good app, even better with some unique functions. My request served fast. Everything are implemented very seriously.

### 5/5 — Thank you. Good App

*2014-03-23, version 2.2*

Thanks for your quick reply on my request :)  The speak in cantonese works well in my iphone5s.

Easy to use, huge library of addresses, speech function works perfectly, any personal request is done perfectly as well

### 5/5 — A must

*2013-12-18, version 2.1*

Very useful if you live in or visit Hong Kong as many taxi drivers understand the Cantonese name only. Also fast and efficient reply to any specific request.

### 5/5 — Collaboration requests are great

*2013-11-28, version 2.1*

Staying in Hong Kong on business and had trouble getting taxis to understand where I wanted to go.
Added a request for my office address via the app and after a quick response and question the street was added.
Great concept.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2013-11-26*

Lots off addresses in the database, almost daily update with new places! That's exactly what I needed for living here in Hong Kong!

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2013-11-08, version 2.0*

This app is fantastic! If you need an address they don't have use the request feature and they normally update it in the same day! Really great app and really handy to have!

### 5/5 — GreatApp

*2013-10-24, version 1.4*

Will definitely tell friends who will visit HK.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — The website has many bugs and is useless

*2023-10-10, version 4.0*

The website wouldn’t work and would exit when I tried to enter it. There were many bugs and lags which is very inconvenient as the only time you use this app is when you are in the taxi. Also just use google translate it isn’ that hard mate.

### 1/5 — Do not buy this app!

*2023-10-09*

It never worked for me, very buggy. Should be taken off the App Store IMO.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2019-09-14, version 3.2*

Speak function doesn’t work. Pretty useless.

### 1/5 — Waste of Money, Very Few Addresses

*2019-08-12*

I paid the $2 for this app and it did not have a single address i needed. Not even major hotels in central parts of the city, or popular restaurants. I wish i could get my money back because i was not able to use it even a single time.

### 1/5 — Does not work.

*2018-08-04, version 3.2*

Waste of money

### 1/5 — Still doesn’t work

*2018-03-24, version 3.2*

Downloaded this app months ago and it never worked. Just kept showing loading option. 
Thought the recent data download bug was fixed but still same. Keeps showing 2. Unzipping file forever. Super disappointed with this paid app.

### 1/5 — Not iOS 11 compatible!

*2018-02-21, version 3.1*

Don’t download, freezes immediately and can’t be used, waste of $15. Tested on iPad Pro2 and iPhone 6, on launching app loads a spinning wheel which can’t be interrupted and freezes all functions. Restart does not work, neither does deleting and re-installing the app.

### 1/5 — Taxi card

*2013-10-27, version 1.4*

Speak function doesn't seem to work at all on my iPhone 5.  Completely useless without speech function.

### 3/5 — Went away, had to delete

*2015-06-29*

It asked me to rate it. I clicked ok and got a white screen. Had to delete the app and reload. Lost all my saved cards.

### 4/5 — Good App

*2014-04-30, version 2.2*

Impressive translation service, sent the request this morning and got it at noon. Most places i would go are covered. Really worth more than 0.99. One more, I like the speech function, if could use a male voice, i would give 5 stars.

### 5/5 — So useful!

*2024-07-14*

I use this app all the time. The spoken cards is especially useful since sometimes I don’t know how to say the name of where I want to go. I recommend this to all my friends who don’t speak Cantonese. Also, they are pretty quick to respond if you have a request to translate a place. 

I have one frustration: if you don’t spell or write the name of what you are searching for absolutely correctly, the app is not smart enough to help you guess and give you suggestions. It makes it frustrating and there isn’t a way to ever find what you are looking for! 
Can this be improved?

### 5/5 — Absolute game changer

*2022-08-19*

Best HK app! Life is sooo much easier 👍

### 5/5 — So useful!

*2017-04-28, version 2.2*

I use this app all the time. The spoken cards is especially useful.  They are pretty quick to respond if you have a request.

### 5/5 — Best app for foreigners traveling by taxi

*2015-04-25, version 2.2*

This is the best app for translating addresses to taxi cards. A must have for every foreigner who travels by taxi in Hong Kong. Very fast response to requests, even if they are a bit vague.

### 5/5 — You need this app!

*2014-12-21*

Most useful app if you're traveling to HK!! Written and spoken translations are super helpful if your driver doesn't speak English.

### 5/5 — Awesome app

*2014-11-27, version 2.2*

A friend in your pocket and all you need to get around Hong Kong by taxi.

If the place isn't listed you can submit a request and they'll add it - and quickly as well!

### 5/5 — Someone Is Listening

*2014-10-01*

I asked for an update for a small specific hotel and a few hours later it appeared!

Great app!  Thank you!

### 5/5 — The only way to get around.

*2014-09-02, version 2.2*

Living in HK for 10 years, my canto is not so good. 

Although most taxi drivers speak English, this app is perfect for times when you need help!

Being able to save favorites is great for quick reference. 

Also love the ability to insert a street number in with most address. 

My work building name was not on the list so I emailed the developers, within a few days there it was on the app. 

One of the most useful apps ever in HK

### 5/5 — Quick response to request

*2014-06-23, version 2.2*

Very fast response to requests! Very practical.
Tips for user: remember to turn on the speaker (ringer) when using the speak function; and it works with google map.

### 5/5 — Fantastic App

*2014-04-20, version 2.2*

If you find an address they don't have, use the request function. They would add  the address on the same day. Really handy.
