Features & Capabilities

Taxiapp UK is the only black taxi app run by London cab drivers, providing a seamless ride-hailing experience across the capital. Booking a traditional London black cab is simple: confirm your pickup, select your destination, and track your driver's arrival in real-time.

User Reviews

Taxiapp UK: Passenger is appreciated for supporting local black taxi drivers with useful features like real-time tracking and wheelchair accessibility. However, multiple users report frequent last-minute ride cancellations without clear explanations, poor notification systems, and technical glitches, including payment and registration issues. These problems cause significant inconvenience, especially for scheduled rides, leading some users to switch to alternative ride apps. While the app has potential and some positive aspects, reliability and communication remain major concerns for many users.

Offers real-time tracking, pre-booking, and easy payment features including payment method saving and emergency contacts.

Professional drivers with spotless cars and good prices noted by some users.
Convenient for early morning rides and planning trips to airports.

Cons

Frequent cancellation of pre-booked rides without explanation, causing user frustration and inconvenience.
Lack of reliable notifications and communication from the app regarding booking status and cancellations.
App technical issues such as failing to add card details, slow performance, and buggy UI (losing input destination).
Verification and sign-up problems, especially with non-UK phone numbers.
Unreliable service leading to users having to switch to alternative apps like Uber or Gett.

Recent reviews

Prebooked a taxi, taxi was confirmed, when I called the taxi driver with the number provided he said he'd never accepted a booking from me. Absolutely terrible.
