Lost in Guangzhou? Well, youre not alone - we speak Mandarin and we still find it hard to get around! Taxi drivers don’t speak English, and you don’t know the Chinese address for the restaurant you wanted to go to. Add on the fact that Guangzhou is constantly changing and you soon realize—you’re lost! Thats why we created the Taxi Guide series – directories filled with big, bold-faced addresses in Chinese that show the driver exactly where you want to go.
FEATURES
✓ Taxi Cards: Just hold up your iPhone - the big, bold addresses in Chinese tell the driver exactly where you want to go. No more charades and no more getting lost!
✓ Offline Maps: Ever find yourself wishing for a map but didnt have or want to pay for a data connection? Your wish has been granted - CITYCITYCITY Taxi Guide now has fully cached, zoomable, scrollable Offline Maps! And if you have a device with a GPS chip (iPhone or iPad with 3G radio) it will display your current location as well.
✓ Search: Want to find a specific place? Search for it! With over 3000 locations and hundreds of hotels, its probably in here! If not, let us know, and well include it in the next release.
✓ Distance Sorting: Sort the locations by distance to quickly find things around you.
✓ CardShare. Friends envious of your iPhone and that you have the Beijing Taxi Guide? At least you can share the Chinese address with them via Email, SMS, or just by copying and pasting it into your program of choice.
✓ Custom Cards. Ask your local friends to input your private addresses and have every card you need with you at all times!
✓ Notes. Trying to remember why you love that hutong shop on the corner? Make a note of it and youll never forget.
✓ Integrated MapView so you dont have to exit the app to see smooth zoomable, scrollable Google Maps!*
✓ Integrated WebView so you can read view reviews from the web from inside the app!*
And don’t worry; it doesn’t need an internet connection, so you won’t get dinged with roaming fees. (*Please note that mapping and internet browsing of reviews require an internet connection and will use data). Well be providing constant updates, since the app is offline and Guangzhou changes so quickly, so stay tuned, add your hotel to the favorites, and enjoy Guangzhou!

Latest reviews of Guangzhou Taxi Guide and Offline Maps app for iPhone and iPad
please update new stations of metro.
Why cant a user enter a custom location? Ive been living in guangzhou a month and know of many places I wish I could create a taxi card for. Why do many of the restaraunts no longer actually exist? The formatting is fantastic for taxis in guangzhou but I also want to enter my own locations. For $9.99 I expected more, please deliver in an update and ill be happy to reccomend this app to all friends who visit. Thanks
