### 2/5 — Unable to get a ride after Update

*2025-06-18, version 3.0.0*

Unable to get a ride after Update

### 1/5 — Great in theory…

*2025-03-31, version 2.1.1*

Unfortunately there is apparently only one driver for the whole city of Toronto. That’s what I usually see, anyway. Sometimes there are none!

### 3/5 — Please fix bugs

*2025-03-22, version 2.1.1*

Like previous commenter, lots of bugs and gaps in service in this app.  Backwards arrow to return to previous screen doesn’t work on iPhone16. Can’t store more than one credit card so can’t keep track of personal vs business expenses.  I’ll use it because it’s Canadian and price is about the same but please improve so more people will use it.

### 3/5 — Map not easily manipulated

*2025-03-21, version 2.1.1*

I could not reduce the map scale by squeezing in with my middle finger and thumb. If I tap the map twice the map scale increases . But I could not figure out how to reduce the scale .

### 1/5 — Can’t get past the splash screen

*2025-03-14, version 2.1*

I haven’t been able to get the app to even load for me. It shows the splash screen after asking for location access but never goes anywhere.

### 3/5 — Needs Updates

*2025-02-22, version 2.1*

Honestly, Uber and Lyft outclass this app. The primary issues are that the app is not optimized for modern iPhone screens, the menues are not always responsive, and the estimated travel times are inconsistent. I use this app because I want to support Canadian services. I will continue to do so, but please consider updates and improved QOL to make the user experience better.

### 3/5 — Fix your OTP

*2025-01-25, version 2.0.9*

Once fixed I will write 5 stars thanks

### 4/5 — Good idea but too expensive

*2025-01-10, version 2.0.9*

This app will absolutely steal significant market share from uber and Lyft if they can combine 
1)offering their drivers a good share of the profits
2) cheaper rides for consumers

The Ubers and Lyfts of the world have gotten greedy and I can definitely see myself using this moving forward, just needs to improve a bit competitively

### 1/5 — Asks for verification code but never sends it

*2024-12-10, version 2.0.9*

Can’t truly give a real review because I was never able to use the app - I couldn’t get past the verification code step because they never sent a code.  Not sure what’s the point of developing an app that cannot be accessed.

### 1/5 — Refuses to send me otp

*2024-12-08, version 2.0.9*

Title says it all. Couldn’t get code after trying for 2 days

### 1/5 — No OTP code

*2024-12-07, version 2.0.9*

I don’t understand how you can release an app and have the OTP code process not work for multiple users (myself and my friend).

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2024-12-07, version 2.0.9*

Cannot get passed phone verification. Will try again in a couple weeks and update accordingly.

### 1/5 — Worthless app! Could not log in with CORRECT code!

*2024-10-03, version 2.0.8*

Worthless app! Could not log in with the CORRECT text code!

### 2/5 — Hidden costs

*2024-09-25, version 2.0.8*

I unfortunately have to agree with the sentiments expressed here in other reviews. I decided to try the app out and booked a ride with a great 50% discount. It took a little longer than Uber/Lyft but at that price I didn’t mind. It was advertised as $8 but I paid nearly $14 in the end. Still a good price for the journey and competitive, but they could benefit from making their pricing more transparent beforehand. I like the concept of paying drivers their fair share so I hope HOVR emerges as a viable competitor in the rideshare market but for now I’ll stick to the more established apps, especially since the toll/heavy traffic fees will add up and make it very expensive in busy cities such as Toronto.

### 2/5 — Good potential, flawed app

*2024-09-16, version 2.0.8*

I like the underlying idea, and tried to set up the app. But the process for saving addresses is badly designed. It sometimes adds extra characters, and insists on multiple entry of house number. Plus it requires the user to fill in a ‘landmark’ field - even when none is relevant. Fix these annoying flaws and I might give it a try….

### 1/5 — How to delete profile?

*2026-04-17, version 3.1.7*

I understand that the app is not available in my area BC, but I can’t use the app at all, I want to delete my data but there’s no web version of the app. Please fix this.

### 1/5 — Great in theory…

*2026-02-04, version 3.1.5*

Unfortunately there is apparently only one driver for the whole city of Toronto. That’s what I usually see, anyway. Sometimes there are none!

Update: it took them a year to respond to my comment. Sounds about right.

### 1/5 — No Rides Available

*2025-08-30, version 3.0.5*

No service on Saturday August 30th 2025 5:41 PM. Impossible to buy Canadian services if it’s not available. Hopefully this changes soon!

### 1/5 — No Rides Available After Update 3.0.2

*2025-07-02, version 3.0.2*

No rides show as available after update 3.0.2. I cannot use the app to travel. I am forced to use a competitor app.

### 1/5 — Code

*2025-06-15, version 3.0.0*

Doesn't send any code

### 1/5 — Latest version does not work, insufficient service

*2025-06-14, version 3.0.0*

Can’t get pass the authentication page and developers and Customer Service do not reply to emails, ever!

A useless service. All hype, older app never provided rides. Not enough drivers, vastly underfunded we guess.

### 1/5 — OTP - a hidden treasure that’s never found

*2025-06-03, version 2.1.2*

I tried multiple times to log into the app using my phone number. It shows all the animations around sending of OTP and waiting for resending OTP. But you’ll never receive the OTP. Seems like a fake app.

### 1/5 — Can’t match drivers with riders. Please improve!!

*2025-05-31, version 2.1.2*

I really hope you succeed & improve because I don’t want to support US-based Uber.  But your app is absolutely terrible right now.  Tried three times to find driver, all cancelled after waiting almost 10 minutes.  Today called from Pearson, said driver was 2 minutes away but was actually right in front of me.  Then driver couldn’t start the ride because app thought I was too far away.  Pls fix this so I can support you!!

### 1/5 — What a joke

*2025-05-25, version 2.1.2*

I signed up for this app because they claimed to pay drivers better and they were Canadian. Never a driver available, wait times ridiculous (25 minutes+) and no way to contact customer support. Terrible. Wish they were better but will most likely delete.

### 1/5 — Lack of drivers

*2025-04-11, version 2.1.2*

I don’t know, where are your 10k drivers. I am trying to use this app yesterday for getting a ride after 3 hours i gave up. I don’t get any available driver near by. You don’t have any drivers. I think drivers download numbers are scam.

### 5/5 — Fair Rideshare with Real Growth.

*2026-03-06, version 3.1.5*

I’m giving HOVR 5 stars because they do what others don’t—drivers get 100% fair pay. Unlike those who grow by exploiting, HOVR’s growth is about fairness. Yes, it takes patience. But if you believe in this, check their site—invest in their growth. Together, we can build a rideshare that’s fair and strong.

### 5/5 — Friendly drivers

*2025-06-13, version 3.0.0*

I’ve used this app a few times now and every ride I’ve been on had the most friendly drivers. I had such a great experience and will continue to use Hovr moving forward.

### 5/5 — peak.

*2025-03-12, version 2.1*

works perfectly!!!!! way cheaper than uber too

### 5/5 — Good effort. App needs some polishing up.

*2025-01-29, version 2.0.9*

If you guys can fix this when in app example adding payment
 method the back button is way high into the top bezel of the screen and is unpressable thanks. 16 pro max

### 5/5 — Great service!

*2025-01-25, version 2.0.9*

My experience with HOVR has been great, as a rider - I appreciate that HOVR gives drivers 100% of the fare. I look forward to continue our local drivers! 🚀🚀🚀

### 5/5 — Great Experience with HOVR!

*2024-08-28, version 2.0.8*

I had a great experience using the HOVR app! It’s easy to navigate, and the rides are quick and affordable. The interface is clean, and booking a ride is simple and hassle-free. I love how convenient it is to get around the city with HOVR. Although, I would like the wait times to be a bit quicker. Overall, Highly recommend!

### 5/5 — Cheap Rides

*2024-08-28, version 2.0.8*

I’ve found it a lot more convenient and less expensive to take a ride downtown instead of driving.

### 5/5 — Great experience

*2024-06-30, version 2.0.8*

Honestly love the app! Keep it up!

### 5/5 — Cheaper
