Univelo New York - Citi Bike for Android
I compared 6 Android Citibike apps. Sometimes it seems that this one refreshes regularly, without requiring the user to request it. Other times, I have to force quit and reopen it, and then it immediately has the right up to date info. A plus: you can see at a glance the state of various stations -- no need to tap on every single one. Though it would be nice to see return station availability too, without requiring toggling!
Nice design. You can find HOW many available bikes are at each location just simply launching this app. Great job.

fails to update bike counts
Exactly what I wanted in an app. The docks have numbers on the maps so you can see what is available without clicking into each dock like the Citibike app. Favorites screen fits many stations. Most importantly you know when the data was updated
Wish there was a widget for my favorite station!
Super convenient! Solid code.
Would not even show any maps, just a blank screen. My guess is this was because was indoors and it couldn't get a GPS fix. Internet connection was working great.
