Uber to shut down FlyTaxi app in Hong Kong, integrating acquired taxi platform

Uber will shut down the standalone FlyTaxi app in Hong Kong by end of 2026, six months after acquiring the metered taxi platform, fully integrating its services into Uber's own app. This marks the second such closure of an acquired taxi platform in Hong Kong, signaling consolidation of Uber's taxi operations. The move is a corporate restructuring with limited market impact beyond local ride-hailing competition.
