Dublin Bikes Service for Android
Doesn't have the polish but it works fairly smooth
Won't even open! Worst app ever
Doesn't work on Xperia Z1
Thanks for the update guys! Now the map is opening properly and I love the new dual option: walking (and looking for a bike) or on a bike (and looking for a station to put it).
Works well with Google maps now. map loads immediately. Also really easy to read and use. Thanks
When this app first came out in liked it and I scored it highly. But now, the map never loads, which is really annoying. Instead all you can see is a jumble of bike icons on a blank grid. I am uninstalling until this is fixed.
Why the designer chose not to use Google maps api is beyond me. The mapping used is incredibly slow and is very prone to freezing and crashing. I don't think it's fit for purpose in current form. Needs major overhaul.
Recently the app has stopped displaying stations and only displays a blank map. Over the course of the last 8 - 10 months the app would never opens on first attempt. It always crashes then opens on attempt two. I have uninstalled and reinstalled more than once & no change in performance. When it works this is an extremely useful app. Accessed via an s3.
The station list is comprehensive but the street map has never loaded. Uninstalling now that there are much better Dublin bikes apps out there.
Map does not load
Bad map
Has been touched by developer in ages. Map didn't even load for me?
It just loads a graphic of the bike stands against a blank background (no street maps). It cannot find my location even though my phone location tracking is on. I cannot even see how to mark my home bike stand as a favourite. The only redeeming feature is that the display of available bikes does seem to be accurate. Not worth downloading.
Bike stations overlaid on a blank background .... map will not load.
One thing great is all new stations are showing in the app. But I can't see the locations. Then just work with the stations that I already know and saved as favorite.
this is fairly useless as a tourist. Every time I have tried to use it I only get a grid, no map. There are other apps out that give the map.
Good updates to include recent stations coming online however map regularly a problem and just doesn't load (even zooming in and out doesn't help). Not usable without map.
The map does not load at all , please fix it otherwise the app is useless
A location based app that can't regenerate a map, even with a 4G connection, is not up to much. Much better apps available that do the same thing way better
Map just does not load so where is the point in using app

If you know what station you are going to already its good to see availability. If you're looking for a station its a waste of time because the maps don't show up at all.
Mapping is very slow, often incomplete and has a poor maximum zoom level. When the map did work, it didn't show any Dublin bikes stations anywhere in the city.
The app doesn't use the Google maps api. Whatever maps software the developers sent with is not for for purpose. The map loads initially but disappears once you try to adjust the zoom leaving you with just the pointers for the bike station locations. Fairly crap to be honest.
Doesn't load map data so finding the station you want is a pain.
The app is nicely designed but there is a major issue; the map titles do not get displayed, about 50% of the map is grey. So if I zoom in on a bike I have no idea where it is. Tested on HTC sensation and HTC one x
No use without map.
Incredible app...
The app is in general good but the map is very very lazy!
Poor functionality, and map doesn't load. Pity because this could be a really useful app.
Map won't display properly, only stations appear yet a lot missing and some included are not finished stops. Wasted my time and effort
Map quality is pretty poor and the interface needs some work.
Doesn't have the polish but it works fairly smooth
Map is awful, the application is usrful though.
Great Little app very easy to use
