Highly recommended for travellers to Japan. Uber works but Go has a larger fleet of cars, more competitive pricing and is often more flexible in terms of pickup locations whereas Uber was trying to restrict us to designated pickup spots. Works seamlessly with an international credit card or you can also pay with cash/Japanese IC card. App was relatively glitch free and easy to use. You can register using non-Japanese phone number too but only after landing and connecting to a Japanese network.

I downloaded this app as I needed a taxi at short notice. It was straightforward to download, see taxis nearby and book a trip. Unfortunately the total fee was not the same as the quoted fare as fees and charges were added which I think should be in the quoted price.

Easy to use but be careful, the driver might over charge if you pay by app. My estimated fee was 1080 yen but the driver charged 1500 yen in one occasion.

Do not use this app!!! Just use Uber. when you start a ride it gives you a price and when you end it it's another. We started our ride with $32, and it ended in almost $100. this is because if the driver takes a longer way than what the app says, it will charge you more.
