Karhoo: compare cabs and book for Android
Whether it’s price, speed, availability or style that is most important to you, Karhoo lets you compare all your local cab options at a single glance in one app.
From licensed London taxis to minicabs and executive cars, with Karhoo you get more cars and more choice, so you’re free to book the ride that suits you best, every time.
More cabs, more choice
Karhoo works with local suppliers to provide both licensed taxis and private hire cars near you.
You can see fixed fares for immediate pickup, so you know the price you are going to pay. It’s your choice whether you prefer the convenience of a cheap minicab, the professionalism of a London taxi or to arrive in style in an exec car.
You can also pre-book a cab – perfect for airport transfers; currently we’re in London and serve Heathrow Airport, Gatwick Airport, Luton Airport, City Airport, and Stansted Airport.
You can filter your search by vehicle type and if we don’t happen to have availability, we will find nearby companies for you to call. All sorted through the app.
Fairer fares
By comparing your options before you book, you’re more likely to get the ride you want. Karhoo lets you filter by speed, for times when you just need to get from A to B fast or price, for when cost matters most.
You get a fixed-price quote so you know exactly what you are going to pay, whether it’s a quick trip up the road or a long run down to the airport.
The smarter way to travel
Karhoo makes getting a ride more convenient.
Not only can you see all options available, but bookings and payments are managed through the app, so there’s no need to worry about finding a local supplier or carrying cash.
And we only work with trusted, licensed partners so you can rely on safe, hassle-free rides every time.
Does not allow you to proceed with the app unless location services are enabled so I stopped using. Should be able to key in a postcode for example
Given other reviews, not happy to give card details to Karhoo at this stage, therefore cannot use to book even if happy with quote. Need to provide reassurance re removal of card details if app is uninstalled.
Love the simplicity and choices (between various companies) of Karhoo. Easy to use. Got a taxi within 10 minutes, twice. Nice to have a guilt-free alternative to uber.
Just downloaded and used REUBE661 to get £10 credit!
And the 2 firms that I usually use, are not even listed. I'll stick to calling them. And went to do a "test fare". Seen that it would have cost me 7 quid for a fare that I know only costs me 4.
Full overview of all options is the way forward. Uber emerged offering a better alternative so I used it, now karhoo has changed the game again. Great app
The app said 6 min. wait. After 46 min. noone came so I cancelled. Now they are charging me. It is more like a scan.
I used this app and all was good. But then I got an error message telling me to contact support. I have contacted support around 5 times now. I keep getting told they are sorry and will look into the problem. But still the problem remains. And the "support" seems to have ended.
Wouldn't let me create an account despite entering all my details correctly. Uninstalled, complete waste of time, will use Uber instead.
Great App!! fast and easy to use. Great pre-book functionality.
Easy to use, fast service
Hi guys. I'm a black cab so how do I sign up?
App seems okay but quoted me £17 for a journey that only costs me £9 with uber!
Well done guys! That's absolutely the best app to travel in London.
Happy we have better option then uber
App feels slow
Not good don't trust
Super easy to work with and I really liked the price comparisons and all the different options. Took a few rides, from different locations and at different times, all trips were smooth.
Big waste of time. Booked a cab to pick up from airport, the fleet cancelled at the last minute, I then wanted to delete my card details before uninstalling the app but it says I cannot delete because I have payment pending!! While they cancelled my booking!! Totally unreliable, avoid this app like a plague
Nice app, simple quick to use, cab came in mins.
This app is a rip off they took money out my account and all now I can't see my money back 1 month later and still
I am a london taxi driver and I used it to get a minicab from Chingford to woodford. Came in minutes and the drivers are better than uber and English and insured
Major companies that can service your needs quickly have their own apps. Why use this app to get to the company that ultimately pick you up? You made an app to use other people's hard working companies while you get rich not producing any service yourself, pathetic.
Great app, easy user experience!
Great app. No surge pricing
Hope premier will join soon !
downloaded the app for two days now but still awaiting my acct to be activated.... i go support uber or grabcar better...
It is wicked man
Love it - works brilliantly
Fat lot of good if in Stafford
Don't trust what I can only assume are their employees leaving reviews service is terrible and app is not as good as others in the market
2 of my local firms not on the list. Just googled them instead.
MS isn't that bad!
Drains battery like mad. After uninstalling the app, my battery life went back from lasting 12 hours to 32.
App ain't working people
awesum app

I ordered a cab using this app for the first time, advised the cab would be 15 minutes and my request has been recieved, got a text to confirm. After 30 minutes and 2 calls to the cab company I was advised to call customer services... I would have, if I could find a contact number. I realised I would be better off getting an uber, so I did! I tried to cancel my booking but kept getting an error message. I'd ideally like to delete my profile but 9 hours later.... My ride is "still in progress".
