You're absolutely right. I don't know what OP is going on about but no there were 0 taxis with apps at least in Birmingham.

I just checked with my friends too and not one person remembers using an app to call a cab before uber. It is possible that some company possibly offered it but it certainly wasn't a popular option before Uber and it was just awful using the taxis here.

Blueline taxis had one in Newcastle - you could also send a text message and they’d come pick you up

Star Cars in Birmingham had an app before Uber.
