When putting in my CC details, do I need to have my CC on hand to pay him or it goes automatically off from the app? and do I need to pick mehadrin before every drive or I can set it for all my upcoming trips?

What was your one star reason?
Was the one of the first few times i used it, and the driver on the app didn't match the driver but the car did, so i took it but my wife bugged out and made me give him one star

as long as you select the option to pay by credit card when ordering the taxi, its automatically in the system. You don't need to give the driver your cc.
I think you have to select mehadrin every time.

There are still certain companies who you know you aren't getting an Arab. I've stopped using Gett recently and I only use Bar Ilan now.

Bar Ilan have now Arab drivers,because a lot of drivers are going over to get taxi.
Looks like get taxi is taking over the whole shuk give it a year or two.
They are coming out now with a new offer for a short time to have a set price for local,I think 15 shek
and over that the company will pay the driver,this is what I heard form a driver.

Bad move on their part. It was one of their selling points

Good luck! Strange I didn't receive the first 2 lines of your post in the email I received... ::)
:) Never claimed I did.

App looks interesting. No maps for my current location.  Anyone use it before?

Yup. Quite often and I personally think the 'public transport' option in the Google Maps apps is much more user friendly and easier to use and gives the same results.

I've found many times that Google maps just couldn't find that ride I wanted when moovit did but for general transportation I always use Google maps.

I use moovit for buses over Google maps

Just used it a couple of times lately, and I was very happy with the service. Most trips were only ₪15-₪20 which is a real bargain, and it can also be ordered ahead of time . If anyone needs a referral please PM me.

Are the rates any better than the regular cabs?

They have a fixed rate for certain neighborhoods, which are dirty cheap.

Eta: for example from Geula to the Tachana Hamerkazit could cost around 40-45, and when available with the app it's 15.

When you sign up through Groupon, you get a ₪80 credit which can be used for multiple rides, for ₪20.
