What happened with this app?

I would have rated much higher because it was very convenient when I didn’t know where I was going, but now anytime I place an order it either is extremely slow, or it will say no taxis are available..
Great App Great Service

Super easy and convenient. Seamless transaction and saved us a 1km walk with luggage through Tokyo in late August. Will definitely use again.
Is it really made for foreigners ?

Tried to set it up and made it through the profile, however, in the name field it had the cryptic option of ‘ put your name in katakana, if you can’ Well, for obvious reasons, I can’t! So I used Standard alphabet. After everything completed, the register button was grayed out! Checked everything, all fields got a blue tick, except my name had a red exclamation mark. Which did nothing, after pressing it several times. Now, the last field is for a coupon code, which I don’t have/need! Besides that, all error messages are in katakana! This whole thing reminds me of most other so called ‘foreigner friendly ‘ Japanese apps! I tried it on an iPhone 8 and an iPad 4 Wow, just got info through Apple that the developer replied to my review . As sure as gold, the link took me straight to a contact page in Japanese!!! Didn’t help at all! Not for foreigners!!
Works well, but ....

Works well, but you can’t sign up with your Western name. You need to translate it into Katakana before you can complete the sign up. Its not clear in the app which makes that seem optional (“if you can”). It’s understandable as the driver needs to identify you at pickup. Fortunately Google Translate is the solution!
Better than Uber - best Taxi app for Americans

Uber or Lyft it is Not!

A good idea, but poor implementation and plenty of bugs. I had nothing but problems each time I tried to use it. On 3 different occasions trying to use it in major parts of Kyoto it only worked and that was only after the 2nd attempt as the first cab never showed up. I would often get "no can available at this location" or the app would simply not respond when attempting to request a taxi.
Fraudulent Activity!

As soon as I downloaded and registered this app, my bank immediately contacted me due to fraudulent transactions totaling more than $500! I only used my card once while in town and that was to securely catch taxis in the area with this app. Wow! In all the time I’ve lived in Japan, I’ve never had an issue with my account being compromised until I downloaded and processed payment on this app. BEWARE!
Great Job in Sapporo Japan!

Super thankful for this app! It works well with no current bugs that I’ve noticed. It really helped my mother and auntie travel around. Their bodies are not as strong and for us to get a ride around town was great!
Must use in Tokyo!

I have taken multiple rides already. Cars are much nicer. The ability to enter a destination is a big plus. Taxi drivers are very friendly. Taxi rates are cheaper than Uber.
