Hailo app review

Introduction

Hailo by Hailo Network Ltd, which is featured on our list of the Best taxi apps for the iPhone, is a travel app that lets you hail a cab in NYC, Boston, or Chicago: wherever you are, whenever you want.

This app will automatically pay the fair and email a receipt for your records, allowing you to conveniently exit the cab upon arrival. Standing in the rain waiting for a cab is a thing of the past thanks to this app. Hail from the comfort of your office, home, or restaurant: cabs now come to you. This is the world’s largest taxi app, containing over 3,500 reviews and a great star rating. If you’re a cab driver then go to hailocab.com/drivers to have the app start making you money. Keep in mind this app only works for the NYC, Boston, and Chicago areas.

More Details

Hailo was updated to Version 2.3 on February 21, 2013. It has a total of 248 customer ratings with an average of 4.5 out of five stars. Feedback comments are primarily positive with users thrilled by the app's convenient and efficient way of providing a taxi to your doorstep. Users from Boston seem to have some issues finding cabs; Boston users report the app showing taxi stands but not individual cars.

The app would be handy if I found myself in one of the supported cities often enough. I like the promo codes offering users a $5 discount off the fare price. If you live in or travel to NYC, Boston, or Chicago and frequently use a cab, then I would recommend checking out this app today!
