User Reviews

Users report that Checker Cabs Calgary app is plagued by reliability problems including slow loading, glitches, and inaccurate GPS leading to wrong pickup locations. The fare locking feature often fails, charging more than the locked price. Despite these issues, the app has a fare lock feature appreciated by users and some commend the drivers. Overall, frequent late pickups, poor communication, and questionable app permissions impact user trust and satisfaction.

Pros

Ability to lock in estimated fare price providing price certainty.
When the app functions properly, it offers reliable time estimates and functionality.
Some drivers are praised as great and helpful.

Cons

The app is glitchy and often unreliable: freezes, crashes, and loads very slowly or not at all.
Fare locking feature is unreliable causing users to be charged more than the locked-in price.
GPS and location features frequently malfunction, resulting in wrong pickup addresses and lost rides.
Poor booking service with late or missing pickups and lack of live updates on cab status.
Questionable app permissions, such as requiring access to contacts without a clear reason.

Recent reviews

Requires access to contacts to show driver location. Lies about pick up estimate, whatever time they show double or triple it. Driver was great but price in app is completely unrelated to actual price. Cannot pay with Google pay, you have to give them your credit card directly.

Checker in my opinion has some of the worst drivers in the city of Calgary, the app seems to reflect that. Glitchy, never seems to be on track with eta's and the drivers arrival with the gps. I gave 2 stars because of the very few good guys working there, and I very much like the lock your estimated fare price down. Lock it, thats what you pay regardless of traffic, weather etc.
