Great   This app actually works, unlike some of the other taxi apps that can't even find your location.

Great idea, poor execution.   I live in a moderately sized town with a (single) local taxi service (but worth noting the 10th largest in my state). "Closest" taxi service listed is in a small town over 90 miles away, which google estimates is a 2 hour drive! If this isn't bad enough, it didn't even manage to list any of the taxi companies in the major city that is only about 50 miles away (1 hour); nor any of the other cities/towns closer. They either need to do a better job of seeding the application with data or make it MUCH easier for user's to update the database. It's not like I expected it to be perfect (it is after all free), but it doesn't appear that they have made even a semi-legitimate effort to seed their database with information; nor was there any easy way for me to provide them with the information (ala urbanspoon). Maybe after it's been out for a long time the database will be much better, but maybe not; because I'm going to drop it like a hot potato and not bother trying to do their work for them.

booooo   Finds my location, but no taxi info - tried multiple times...! Loaded Vicinity selected TAXI and found all taxi companies. Another bad application... Get Vicinity 100% better. - Taxi review by Traveler-x
Doesn't work!!!   I live in Colorado Springs which is a fairly large city with no less than 3 taxi companies, but this app never brought up a single one. Even tried rebooting iPhone, but only got as far as finding city (Colorado Springs) and nearest street intersection (Astoria & Flag Way) but never made it to an actual listing for any taxis. Seems like a great simple app, if only it worked everywhere. Heck, fix it and I might even pay for it!! - Taxi review by Strega
Simple, beautiful taxi app   Great graphic design combined with exactly the functionality I need makes this the perfect taxi companion. I launched the app and it immediately knew which city I was in, nice touch. No need to enter any user information.I live in San Francisco and always need to call up a Taxi but never want to call the dreaded 333-3333 number because they never pick me up. Now I can get a taxi anywhere.I imagine half the users of this application will probably be using it after they go to the bar and can't find a taxi number in their Address Book. I'm sure they won't have any issues though, "Taxi" is so easy even a drunk person could use it! - Taxi review by sugarcube
poor   It shows me only one taxi firm, and there are in fact dozens (98052). The right thing to do is show "top 10 ordered by distance", not "anything within fixed distance". Also, when it told me where I am, it gave a wrong intersection. The least it could do is show a map and ask.I will use Locly instead. - Taxi review by DenNukem
Good so far   I've used it only once, but it worked well. A big improvement over my previous method of calling 411 and scrambling to jott down numbers of companies that failed to answer anyway. - Taxi review by jeveleth
Essential For Travelers and Frequent Taxi Riders!   Taxi exemplifies the perfect iPhone utility application -- simple, specific, and relevant. Sure, you could type t-a-x-i into some other search application. But why would you want to do that when Taxi will connect you with a dispatcher in just one tap? Taxi does exactly what I want, when I want it, and without any extra fuss. - Taxi review by thaljef
Um ... taxi's ??   Kind of surprised to see a "data free" as well as a "support free" app. If there's only data for certain cities why not state that up front? Phx metro seems to be "taxi free" :-( - Taxi review by payolla
Wow!   I just got ten phone numbers on my first try here in Downtown Brooklyn.
This will be handy in NYC. - Taxi review by PRBurns

It doesn't really work   It doesn't really work, it finds your location, but shows no Taxi info. Tried several times from several different locations. Yellow pages could find it much faster.... - Taxi review by AB49
Not working   Great app if it worked. Updates location but does not load any cab companies. - Taxi review by G1G4BYTES
Taxi   Would be a convenient app to have if it worked. It located my area but won't load any results. I'd give it 5 stars if it would load results. This will be a nice app to have handy when it works! - Taxi review by TonyM239
hmmmm   don't work in my iPhone, I don't allow geolocate and then quits the app.. :( - Taxi review by the dark eye
great app   i travel weekly and taxi is much easier than having to locate a number in my contacts, keep things discrete and functional. interface is so easy to use and gets results every time. great work! - Taxi review by trace_c
Garbage   I live in a large metro area and unless I'm practically downtown it doesn't find anything. I.E. It doesn't work in the 'burbs! - Taxi review by ape mummy
Bad!   Bad app, even for being free. Never found any taxis in any city that I've traveled to. - Taxi review by Jedmo
