User Reviews

Users see potential in Yellow Cab Co's app due to features like showing wait times and taxi location and a simple, one-tap way to hail a cab. However, repeated issues dominate: frequent crashes and errors that prevent booking, unreliable payments, and fear of being charged hidden or higher-than-quoted fees. Several reviews indicate the app is limited to Des Moines and not nationwide, with reservations canceled or taxis not arriving. Compatibility problems with older iOS versions also recur. Overall, the app offers promising functionality but is perceived as unreliable and costly.
Pros
  • Shows wait time and taxi location in-app, helping you plan pickup.
  • One-tap hail dispatch sends a taxi quickly.
  • Simple and straightforward user experience for hailing a cab.
Cons
  • Frequent crashes or errors that prevent booking and disrupt use.
  • Hidden fees and higher-than-quoted charges, sometimes double-charging.
  • Limited geographic availability (Des Moines-focused, not nationwide).
  • Reservations canceled or taxis not arriving, indicating reliability issues.
  • Compatibility/update problems on older iOS versions (requires update, may crash on iOS 9).

I am reconsidering using this service ever again, due to unfair fees. I was charged extra fees for tolls and wait time? There was no waiting and no tolls charged anywhere! I got to work in less than 5 minutes for $27+. Lucky Cab was $15 plus tip.

They will charge you significantly over the quoted price, along with hidden “service fees”
