iPhone users, now Siri can book Ola cab for you!

Using just their voice, iPhone and iPad users running iOS 10 can simply say, “Hey Siri, get me an Olacab” to book their next ride. Yes, you read it right. Now you can book an Ola cab with Siri, the most publicized artificial intelligence agent of Apple.

Ola, the ride-hailing app has rolled out its latest update for iOS 10 that will include Siri and Apple Maps integration. This integration makes Ola’s growing focus on making cab booking even more accessible and convenient for iPhone and iPad users in India.

Ola has also launched an Independent app on Apple Watch to ensure a consistent experience across all Apple devices.

Ankit Bhati, Co-founder, and CTO, Ola, said, “Technology is at the core of all our solutions aimed at providing enhanced mobility to our customers. Integrating our app with iOS 10 is a step towards redefining customer experience. We are proud to be one of the early adopters of Sirikit and Mapkit in the world and we are confident that customers using Apple devices will benefit from this refreshed experience.”

He further added, “With this update, Apple users will also get access to Ola directly from Apple Maps when searching for their destination.”

Ola's this move comes within weeks of Uber, its biggest rival, launching the same services for the Apple users.
