Flow Taxi is a personal taxi fare meter that helps you check estimated taxi fares before and during a ride. It calculates an estimate from the selected regional fare table, GPS trip distance, and low-speed travel time. Key features • Select a taxi fare table for supported areas • Check standard, deluxe, and large-taxi availability by area • Track GPS-based trip distance, current speed, stopped time, and estimated fare • See when night and out-of-city surcharges may apply • Save a memo and toll charge when a trip ends • Create receipts with the estimated fare, tolls, distance, and duration • Save or share receipt images • Review trip history by date and delete records when needed • Available in Korean and English With Flow Taxi Pro, you can use additional regional fare tables and save custom fare tables. Configure the base fare, included distance, distance fare, time fare, night surcharge, and out-of-city surcharge to fit your needs. Fare information is offered for areas verified against publicly available local-government or public-agency sources. Actual fares, surcharge conditions, call fees, and road conditions can vary by area and trip. Flow Taxi is intended for estimated-fare reference and personal trip records. It is not an official vehicle meter or payment service. Please rely on the vehicle meter and payment receipt for the final fare.
