Useless if foreigner

If you are in your country where you are able to receive a SMS, the app prevents the registration as you are not in Japan, but when in Japan, you cannot receive the SMS… so is just an app for Japanese phones…

Tourist don’t download

It’s basically useless. You need to get a SIM card that has a phone number (which no tourist will ever use, and I don’t know if you can find any). Only having internet is not enough. Just go to the street and call a random taxi. Or have roaming in Japan. Good luck.
