Reply to comment by Civil-Broccoli-4588 in FYI for anyone trying to take an Uber/Lyft from LGA on Sunday by RevolutionaryAd5176

surprised how quickly uber turned into literally just yellow cabs with an app. all the same problems, except i dont have to stand on the corner to get one.

Welp, you're in luck, because you can use an app for Yellow cabs too... Download Arro...

1.9 star review on the play store.

Does this take care of my fear of getting scammed by cabs? I'd gladly pay extra for Uber/Lyft knowing ahead of time what I'm paying and their customer support.

You gotta figure, the definition of "scammed" varies quite a lot.

My personal experience using Arro: it works as expected. You use it to request a cab, the cab comes. You use it to pay when you're done, it takes the payment. Basically, it worked like Uber, but for regular taxis.
