About this app

Taking a taxi in Hong Kong just got easier. 🚕

Whether you live in Hong Kong or are just visiting, TakeTaxi helps bridge the language gap between you and your taxi driver. Search for an address in English and get the Chinese address in easy-to-read text that you can simply show your driver.

No more hunting for screenshots of hotel addresses, carrying around business cards, or struggling to explain your destination. Just find where you want to go, show your driver, and be on your way.

★ IMPORTANT TO KNOW ★

TakeTaxi is not a ride-hailing service. We don't connect you with drivers or order taxis. TakeTaxi is designed for those times when you simply want to hop into a Hong Kong taxi and easily show the driver where you want to go.

Fare, distance, journey time, routes, and other trip information are estimates and may differ based on traffic, the route taken by your driver, and other conditions. Some addresses may not translate correctly or may not be available; if you can't find an address, try searching for the building, hotel, attraction, or place name instead.

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!
