taxi app

Summon a cab

A taxi app is a smartphone application for summoning rides from drivers, typically showing available cars nearby, estimated fares, and arrival times.

Uber and Lyft popularized the model, though traditional taxi companies now offer their own apps.

The term covers both rideshare services and conventional taxi booking: I'll just get a taxi app to pick us up.
