Cabbie’s Mate iOS and Android apps October POI update:

All iOS iPhone – iPad and Android Cabbie’s Mate PREMIUM SUBSCRIPTION Apps customers will receive the October POI update automatically. If you have not received any notification, please open the app, tap on ‘i’ info button and tap on ‘downloads’. Please note: Standard subscription customers only receive our April POI update with new maps we release in Spring, around April.

iOS 11 and iPhone 8:

Please be aware that you MUST download the Cabbie’s Mate app and maps via a secure Wi-Fi at home and NOT via 3G/4G. You must also have strong Wi-Fi signal and 2 GB free space. If something goes wrong, you must delete the app, RE START device and download again. Make sure your device has at least 50% charge or connected to a charger.

Cabbie’s Mate subscription app has been tested and working perfectly on iPhone 6, 7 and iPads running iOS 11.

We have also tested our Subscription Cabbie’s Mate app on the new iPhone 8 and it’s working perfectly.

The Cabbie’s Mate NON-subscription app is not compatible with iOS 11 and cannot be updated.

Dropping off and collecting your repaired Cabbie’s Mate unit from JVBrights:

When you drop your unit off at JVBrights for repair, please let them know if you will be away for a while or not able to collect when notified. We are more than happy to delay the delivery to suit you, but once we have delivered, we expect the drivers to collect within 48 hours. This is to avoid any units going missing or getting damaged while they are at the shop. Repairs are usually completed within 3 working days.

For a device inspection, the set fee is £30. Should your device require physical repair this amount will be included in the repair fee and will not be additional.

For those who are not sure of the location, JVBrights is at 47/51 Gt Suffolk St. SE1 0BS the taxi spare parts shop by the canteen and the petrol station.

A-Z Map or POI updates can be done online, at home or at JVBrights (JVBrights will charge an additional £5 for POI update and £10 for A-Z map with POI update for their labour).

We always appreciate any feedback. Your positive reviews power our development and support teams. It only takes a minute to review and helps us make the Cabbie’s Mate app better.

If you wish to comment further or for any suggestions, you can always contact us through our website or through your Cabbie’s Mate app. Thanking you in advance.

Please remember, although the functionality of both iOS and Android Cabbie’s Mate app is same, it performs much better on iPhones and iPads.

Advice on Phone or Tablet Preference for Cabbie’s Mate A-Z app

If you are going to purchase a device, our recommendation, based on our experience, would be an iOS device such as the iPhone 6 plus, 6S plus, 7 plus or the iPad. We are better placed to recommend our iOS App as there is only one manufacturer which is Apple and less versions of the operating system to work with. We know that our App works well on iOS. You will need to have a 3G (cellular) iPad for the app to work accurately; you will not need a 3G sim.

Unfortunately we cannot recommend a specific Android device as there are over 18,000 distinct Android devices on the market, device brands and models vary making it difficult for us to predict and recommend which devices and operating systems will be compatible with our app.
