Password reset is frustratingly down all the time
Password reset is impossible
Half-baked
Best thing about it I don't need to use it to use the e-bike.
Nice to see exact battery charge though would be better to see esimates of usable battery remaining based in usage patterns as they accumulate. Also, app is useless to optimize charging for batter health (eg connect to battery while charging to see % charge and charging time remaining).
Only thing I use it for is to keep track of distance ridden for my maintenance records so I can create reminders to inspect or replace certain parts at certain ride distances.
Finally, pushes controller firmware updates without release notes...who has done that for the last 10 years?

No Diagnostics
It would be very helpful if the app could give some more technical information. My motor completely died and turned out to be faulty but the app said nothing. Being able to give diagnostics to a bike shop over the phone would save time and effort. Also flagging issues that could lead to a fault would be incredibly useful.

Great but needs tweaking
I like my phone mounted on the handlebars and this app is useful for showing power and battery levels. The slight danger is if you forget your password. So far I’ve done it twice and had to re register because their ‘reset password’ link does not work.
Apple Watch Integration
I second the comment by another user that an Apple Watch app to modify the assist level would be fantastic. There is not much room on the bike, with the battery in front, for a phone and water bottle holder, so using the Apple Watch to ‘offload’ would be ideal.
Does the job
I don’t use the app a ton while riding. I do reference it from time to time and appreciate the service reminders and log.
Would LOVE an Apple Watch version for adjusting assist level. Same sort of interface as on phone, just a quick swipe in the wrist would be fantastic.

Missing features
Looks like a good start, but I don’t have a Brompton Electric (yet). I just wanted to see how the app worked as I consider the bike. There is no demo mode. Once you create an account, the only option is to add a bike.
Additionally, I unintentionally typo’d my last name while creating the account. Neither can I can find an option to change any of my profile settings, nor can I delete the account. Nothing on the Brompton web site, either. I don’t think that meets GDPR.

Not bad, but logs you out and is lacking overall
Main bugbear after nearly a year is that, on some fluctuating schedule, the app logs me out. This is the only non-finance app I have that does this. Why does it need to do this?
As noted it would be great if it can cache battery level etc, and Watch integration would be ace

Works well. There is room for improvement.
The app insists on a web account login and doesn’t appear to support OAuth. This means the app will forget your password at the most inconvenient time meaning a frustrating delay to retrieve my password from the password manager.
Accessibility and dynamic font sizing could improved to help long sighted users with a plus/ max sized iPhone mounted on the bike handlebar.
Stores menu does not show favourites by default nor does it prompt you to set one initially for service.
No service notification for upgrades
No iCloud sync for bike details photos etc.
No way to mark service notifications as completed
Shortcuts support would be a welcome addition.
