What are users saying about B-cycle Now

Q70%
by Q####:

It can be very difficult to get the menu to open, as you need to hold down on an extremely narrow button/bar at the left edge of the screen. It can be even more difficult if your phone has a case on it. Moreover, the app doesn't remember the region you select, which can be pretty frustrating if you're, say, investigating biking options in a city you'll be visiting in the future.

But it would be better if B-Cycle just had all their locations put onto Google Maps. Too many individual apps.

En mi dispositivo Samsung Galaxy s6 edge no muestra la ruta para llegar a una parada ya que cuando saca los datos de maps lo hace por bicicleta y este no lo muestra. Favor arreglar eso.

Android 2.0 called they want their app back

Z70%

It says station unavailable a lot when you click on a station and data can be stale where you head to a station that says it has a bike but doesn't. Also, maybe a picture or street view of the station may help spotting new station. Other than that it is decent at where the stations are and generally letting you know approximately how many bikes or spots are open. The recent update seemed to fix the station unavailable status but we'll see if that sticks...

It locks up my phone as soon as it's launched. No crash, just a blank screen and the phone becomes unresponsive. I'm on Android 5.1 on a Nexus 6

all stations on map are unavailable...why bother with app

I70%

Was in Denver for a couple days and got around mostly by using this app. Didn't have any problems.

Z70%
by Z####:

Displays out-of-service stations the same way as in-service stations. Fortunately, the station in question accepted our bikes, but to get back home we had to walk over a mile to the next station, which was fortuitously functional.

A70%
by A####:

Could see the stations but when selected one showed "station unavailable" for every one.

R70%
by R####:

Used to crash 100%. Now works - sorta - but only on first launch. Map shows each station and count of bikes at each. But touching a station - any station - shows 'Station unavailable' pop-up. On subsequent launches, each station on map shows '?' for bike count and that never gets better until phone restarted. Samsung Galaxy S4 (TMobile), Kitkat 4.4.4

by G####:

Bcycle shows ALL stations, including those that are "coming soon" or deactivated. Not useful when you're looking to find where to pick up or dock your bike only to realize there docking station isn't even there yet. Also no way to manually refresh the data. And all stations show "Station Unavailable" even for those that are fully functional...again, not very useful when already out and looking for a bike or dock. There are better apps out there but Bcycle doesn't share their data very easily so we're stuck using this app for now.

New service here in Fargo, but I can't get the App to work. When it does work, I ride to a location that shows several open bays, just to find out they are all full. Using a Samsung G3 and having nothing but issues. Also, I keep hitting the "report" button every time I receive the "Unfortunately..."

On my phone using Lollipop, the number of open slots at bike stations is not available. Works correctly on my iPhone though. Otherwise, a nice app.

X70%
by X####:

No longer crashes. Works as advertised. Wish list of cities was based on city and state, not "branding" which isn't obvious to out-of-towners

X70%

Often I'll load the app and see it shows the station nearest me is unavailable. But when I load the website for my local share, that station shows as online. Quitting and re-opening the app doesn't always seem to help. It seems the app is caching information and not really giving you the most up to date, which means it's not really a good alternative to the website. ----- Would be really nice if I could log into my bcycle account and see my ride history. Specifically it'd be nice to see how much time is remaining on my current checkout. Our system is small and the bikes have integrated locks, so it's common to take one to a restaurant for lunch. An integrated timer would help determine if I need to hurry up or not.

X70%
by X####:

Not organized geographically. Some bikes are listed by city, others by company. If your city isn't listed and you don't happen to know the local bike company by name, there's no way to find a bike near you. There's no way to select all bikes on a single view, so even GPS location or map searching doesn't help. Bad, bad, bad design!

Great application for tracking bicycles and identifying stations! I prefer this version over the Spot cycle application.

F70%

Doesn't work at all. HTC one and it crashes every time you try and find a station or list all stations

Z70%
by Z####:

Much better than the official app

B70%

Its pretty good. The map to find the available docks was a bit confusing but all in all I like it.
