See what a taxi ride may cost as it happens
Taxometer helps passengers make an independent, approximate fare calculation. Enter the rates used in your city, start tracking, and compare the estimate with the price quoted or charged by a taxi.
For personal comparison only. Taxometer is not a certified or fiscal taximeter and an estimate alone does not prove overcharging.
How it works
A transparent estimate in three steps
The app does not guess a universal taxi price. You configure the rules that apply locally and remain in control of the comparison.
02
Track the ride
With your permission, foreground and background GPS estimate travelled distance and charged time while the ride is active.
03
Compare the result
See the approximate running total and compare it with the amount quoted or charged. Local supplements and taxi rules may still change the final fare.
Core tools
Built for a clear, independent comparison
Taxometer keeps the tariff, live estimate, trip history, and optional receipt details in one place without requiring an account.
•
Custom city tariffs
Create single or zoned tariff sets with day, night, Sunday, and holiday variants.
•
Distance and time calculation
Estimate the fare using GPS distance, waiting or low-speed time, minimum fare, and included distance.
•
Agreed-price comparison
Record a price agreed before the ride and keep the metered estimate visible as a separate comparison.
•
Local history and receipts
Keep trips, discounts, statistics, and non-fiscal receipts locally on your device.
Visible during the ride
Follow the estimate without keeping the app open
Native surfaces keep the most important ride information close at hand while tracking continues in the background.
•
Dynamic Island and Live Activity
On supported iPhones, see the current estimate in the Dynamic Island and on the Lock Screen during an active ride.
•
iPhone Home Screen widgets
Small, medium, and large widgets can show fare, time, distance, and the active tariff at a glance.
•
Android floating window
An optional overlay keeps the live fare, time, distance, and tariff visible above other apps.
•
Background GPS tracking
With permission, the active ride continues to update when the screen is locked or another app is open.

Roadmap
Working toward an official, compliant product
The long-term goal is to make Taxometer suitable for lawful professional use in supported markets. That requires much more than an accurate GPS calculation, so the work is being approached in stages.
Today: independent, approximate, non-commercial fare estimation.
01
Legal and technical requirements
Map the requirements of each target market, including passenger information, tariff rules, data integrity, inspection, and privacy.
02
Auditable and protected trip records
Develop controlled updates, traceable calculations, stronger integrity protections, and the operational flows expected from a regulated product.
03
Certification and fiscal integration
Work with qualified partners on any required certified fiscal system, authority approvals, testing, and market-specific launch process.
Responsible use
An estimate is a useful signal, not a legal verdict
Taxi prices can depend on official local rules, supplements, traffic, route choice, waiting time, GPS quality, and the tariff entered by the user.
Taxometer is not currently a certified, legally approved, or fiscal taximeter.
It is not intended to calculate or collect commercial passenger fares.
Do not replace legally required licensed equipment or fiscal systems with this app.
An estimate does not by itself prove that a driver or taxi operator acted dishonestly.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Can Taxometer tell me whether a taxi is cheating?
It can provide an independent approximate comparison. A difference may point to a tariff, route, supplement, waiting-time, or GPS issue, but the estimate alone is not proof of fraud or overcharging.
Does the app know my city tariff automatically?
Not in every city. You can enter and edit the applicable local tariff yourself. Some built-in presets may be available, but official local sources should always be checked.
Can a driver use it as a commercial taximeter?
Not as a replacement for legally required equipment or fiscal systems. Professional use is permitted only where local law expressly allows it and all required approvals are in place.
Where is trip data stored?
Current app data is stored locally on the device. The app does not require an account or send trip routes to a developer-operated backend.
Support and transparency
Questions about a tariff, estimate, or the roadmap?
Contact the developer for technical help or feedback. Support cannot determine the legally correct fare or resolve a dispute with a taxi operator.
