As an American unfamiliar with Tokyo and I don't speak or read Japanese, it was very intuitive and easy to use. Everything in the English version was very similar to Uber.
Very useful in Okinawa where the public transport isn't as great as on the mainland. If you have a foreign bank account make sure they know you're travelling otherwise the payment may be declined. Highly recommended.
Installed this as Uber failed to find driver at Chiba, Funabashi Station. Was able to register using UK SNS verification, followed by a 1円 credit card verification. There is driver tip function minimum 200円, but I wonder if all tips go to the driver
I was finally able to come back to Japan and try the app again. It works great with a US phone number and credit card! 👍🎉 Super convenient!
If you have issues downloading the app, connect to your hotel wifi, then do it! I am 7 days into a 21-day trip to Japan, and I just discovered this app! Better and cheaper than Uber, my next 14 days just got easier!
