About Ola
Ola, the ride app run by ANI Technologies Private Limited, books cabs, autos, bike rides, outstation trips and rentals across India. Its office is at the Ola Campus in Koramangala, Bengaluru.
Under Ola's current India terms, effective 15 October 2025, the app works as a platform that connects riders with drivers. Rides, payments and support all run inside the Ola app, whose SOS button connects to the police in an emergency.

Update the Ola app An old Ola version can hang on the booking screen. Update it and open it fresh.
-
Allow precise location Ola needs precise location to find drivers. Check the permission in your phone settings.
-
Try another ride type If cabs are not accepting, try an auto or bike in the same app.
-
Switch the network Toggle between mobile data and Wi-Fi if the map or booking screen will not load.
-
Check the live status on this page Many riders reporting Ola together means the service is down. Wait a few minutes and retry.
Other ways to access Ola

Questions
Reports from Ola riders and our check of olacabs.com sit together on this page. If many riders in different cities report the app within minutes, Ola is down. If the app opens but no driver accepts near you, try an auto or bike in the same app, or wait a few minutes.
A server problem shows as the app not opening, an endless loading screen or an error at booking. "No cabs available" is different: the app works, but no driver nearby has taken the ride yet.
Update the Ola app, restart the phone and allow location access. If it still does not open, reinstall it and log in with your registered mobile number.
Turn on location and give Ola precise location permission in phone settings. Move the pickup pin by hand to a road the driver can reach.
No. This page covers the Ola ride app for cabs, autos and bikes. An Ola Electric scooter has its own app and support.
