Accessibility Comments

While there have been some vast accessibility improvements in the app, This app goes through accessibility phases, but the app is mostly very accessible 98% of the time. A quick email to support usually fixes VoiceOver problems in the next version. The place that seems to constantly not get any accessibility attention is the spot where you track drivers within the app.

VoiceOver Performance

VoiceOver reads most page elements.

Button Labeling

Most buttons are clearly labeled.

Usability

The app is fully accessible with VoiceOver, but the interface could be easier to navigate and use.

Other Comments

Despite the quirks, Overall, I love the fact I can use cabs in my state with this app and not have to use Lyft or Uber. The ability to pay via multiple payment methods is a nice touch. My phones always freeze or act sluggish when I try and track my driver, no matter what generation of phone I use at the time. Send your questions, feedback or suggestions to support@gocurb.com

I had this ap in the past but have not used it in a long time. I have forgotten my password. I asked to reset my password. I followed all the prompts and got the response "instructions will be sent to your email". No instructions have sent for more than 7 (seven) hours. I emailed the company and asked for help. No response has been received. I used the email in the post. Any suggestions?

I eventually had to do it from the website. That worked once for me, but I ended up remembering my password anyway. I'd try the website.

Thanks for the website suggestion. As it turns out, Curb doesn't operate in Kansas City, Mo. At least according to the list on the website.
I was looking for an addition to Uber or Lyft since many of their drivers are no longer working.
