### 1/5 — Adding card payment

*2026-07-19, version 1.32.0*

Why would it deduct money from my account as soon as I decided to put a card payment option. Very suspicious. Send an explanation please.

### 1/5 — Be careful!

*2026-07-10, version 1.32.0*

Driver pretended to pick me up and charged me, though he didn't. I complained for days to the otaxi service for days and never received a single response. Horrible company, no customer support...

### 5/5 — Great ride

I enjoy every ride with otaxi

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-02-11, version 1.28.0*

As soon as I requested the ride my driver quickly came. Really recommend this app keep this in mind whenever you come to Oman.

### 5/5 — Very good driver

*2026-01-07, version 1.28.0*

Taxi arrived even although I wasn’t sure if I had ordered it and took us to where we wanted to go. 
Strange but perfect.

### 1/5 — Kein Code

*2026-01-01, version 1.28.0*

Keine Registrierung möglich, da der Code an die Handynummer nicht zugestellt wird

### 1/5 — Foreign phone? Not for you!

*2025-12-31, version 1.28.0*

Otaxi’s Yango interface does not send the SMS or WhatsApp registration code to foreign phones. Result: the app is unusable. Muscat Taxi and Tasleem worked for me.
