Ratings and reviews

Have been using this app for about 5 years now. Never had any issues until now. I leave my meter on the dashboard and it can't connect to GPS. Meter will not turn on because of GPS issue. And if it does turn on, it'll work for a few minutes then the message comes up again "waiting on GPS fix". Really frustrating. Took a fare to the airport in what should've been a $60 fare, got to the airport and it said $24. Had to go back to the good ol calculator and calculate the fare for them. Deleting app👎

Great app in the time I've used and recommended. Lately GPS fix is near impossible, especially with my Samsung. Recommended this app to a friend who has the same issue with Samsung. WHY? GPS is GPS. Why is Samsung different? Today, I get a license error? Get it together, folks. May delete soon if no fix. I also suggest allowing concurrent, time cutoff speed, and time accumulation to per tariff, instead of across the board. This forced me to pay two separate fees for different setups. Total BS.

Been using Planet Coops Taximeter for about 4 years, absolutely great, works just like an MR400, and Stuart sorts out the tariffs, he is an absolute whizz, takes him no time at all to write me a tariff. Cannot reccomend highly enough, and the knowledge of the Taximeter is superb. I have found that nothing is too much trouble for them if you just take the time to contact them.
