Dear valued customer,

We hope you and your family are safely and well.

We realise there is a tough time ahead for the taxi trade. Like all other businesses in the taxi trade, we are also trying to do what we can to help our customers. It will be tough, but the taxi trade will survive as always. Remember, our health is more important.

New 2020-21 October version A-Z map update has been released for all Cabbie’s Mate devices and Apps:

New A-Z maps include road changes in the City, Shoreditch, Haggerston, Hackney, Homerton, Islington, Camden, Kennington, Oval and Victoria. For LTN (Low traffic neighbourhood) changes, we mainly focused within Central London.

ALL iOS iPhone – iPad and Android Cabbie’s Mate STANDARD and PREMIUM SUBSCRIPTION customers will receive the latest A-Z maps, but only PREMIUM subscription customers will receive the October POI update. STANDARD subscription customers only receive April POI update once a year. If you have not received any notification, please open the app, tap on ‘i’ info button and tap on ‘downloads’.

We have been updating our A-Z maps TWICE A YEAR to keep up with changes. The first release is in Spring and the second is in Autumn. Cabbie’s Mate subscription customers receive both map updates automatically when released.

We have made a substantial investment on both iOS and Android Cabbie’s Mate apps and are redeveloping more technologically advanced apps with many more useful functions. We are aiming to release these apps in the new year. These will replace current apps at no extra cost.

Until the end of 2020, all online map updates will be £45 instead of £65 for all Cabbie’s Mate UNITS and will include lifetime A-Z POI update.

Please notify us by email of any new points you come across with location and of any changes to the names of points already in our database to allow us to maintain the quality of information and service which we constantly seek to achieve for our valued customers.

Cabbie’s Mate iOS app compatibility

Cabbie’s Mate subscription app has been tested and working perfectly on iPhone 6, 7, 8, X, 11 and iPads running iOS 12, 13 and 14. The app is no longer compatible with older ios versions since Apple no longer support older iOS versions. Cabbie’s Mate app will always be compatible with the last 3 iOS versions as this is the standard practice for apps.

The Cabbie’s Mate NON-subscription iOS app is not compatible and it is discontinued since Apple no longer supports older iOS versions.

Please remember, although the functionality of both iOS and Android Cabbie’s Mate app is same, it performs much better on iPhones and iPads 3G/4G/5G.
