TakeTaxi - HK Taxi Translator

ANEW Creation Limited

About this app

Living in Hong Kong? Just visiting? Try HK’s favorite address translator to search addresses in English and translate them into Cantonese in easy-to-read text. Show the address to your taxi driver and be on your way. Plus, see the estimated price, time, and Cantonese pronunciation for your trip!

You won't need screenshots of hotel addresses, unreadable business cards, or confusing conversations with your driver. With TakeTaxi, you can take any taxi you see and be on your way.

Note: TakeTaxi is not a ride hailing service and does not connect you with drivers or order a taxi. It is meant for people who want the ability to hop in a taxi on the street and show the driver an address in Chinese.

★ App Features ★
‣ Search in English, get results in Cantonese
‣ View the estimated taxi fare, distance, and duration of your ride
‣ Star your favorite locations for faster viewing
‣ Save quick-access locations onto the app's main screen
‣ Learn the Cantonese pronunciation in Jyutping and Yale

(Note that all prices, times, routes, etc., are estimates and may differ from the route your driver chooses and/or traffic. GPS function must be enabled to access these features and to save routes to your trip history. Some addresses may not translate; if so, we suggest searching for the building name.)

Ratings and reviews

Every time I head for Hong Kong I make sure to download this app. It has facilitated travel in and around the city in ways I couldn't have easily accomplished without it, smoothly and seamlessly. It's simple to use and it's my go-to app when coming to Hong Kong!

A must have for non-Chinese speakers. I tell every new expat I meet. I would be willing to pay a few bucks for this. It should be download-able like Translate. There have been some outages recently, probably only when I need it.

Great app! Love that it includes Jyutping. Works so quickly and flawlessly. Would it be possible to make the Chinese text selectable? It would be nice to be able to practice common destinations in Pleco. Thanks for the great work!
