Common Questions Addressed:

1. I was charged £39 from the Airport to my destination. Was it a fair fare? Was I overcharged?
2. I am traveling to a new city for the first time. What would be the estimated fare from the Airport to my destination?
3. Can I receive an estimated cab fare between two different locations in the city, instead of just understanding how the meter works?
4. Where can I find a taxi or cab fare calculator for my current city?

TaxoFare effectively answers these queries by providing estimated fares and comparisons prior to travel, ensuring clarity and transparency with detailed route mappings.

The app also allows users to calculate live fares without an internet connection, enhancing its utility in various situations.

Note: Prolonged use of GPS in the background may significantly reduce battery life.
