### 1/5 — Unusable

*2026-01-24, version 2.40.14*

It was great on my android but the app must be faulty on Apple because it won’t let me log in. I’ve deleted and reinstalled it. I’ve logged in on my browser so I know my password is all correct. Basically a glitchy app that they don’t seem to want to fix. Look at the reviews. Useless unfortunately

### 3/5 — Landscape for iPad?

*2025-03-27, version 2.40.14*

Please add Landscape mode for iPad.

### 3/5 — Cannot Update Settings

*2024-08-20, version 2.40.8*

Concept is very good. Registration of bike (or multiple bikes) is straightforward. However the fact that you cannot add your phone number where it requests to add your phone number leaves one questioning the overall effectiveness & reliability of the program. Please correct this so we know it’s just an overlooked minor bug.

### 1/5 — Instantly deleted

*2024-08-13, version 2.40.8*

I downloaded and opened the app, and it prompted me to sign in. I tapped in the email field and got the keyboard, but no option to autofill. That’s a red flag for me. If the developer can’t get that right, what are the chances that the rest of the app is any good?

### 1/5 — Registration stuck at photo of bike

*2024-04-15, version 2.40.4*

All controls unresponsive except for the exit and help buttons

### 1/5 — App needs work

*2024-03-27, version 2.40.03*

This app needs work.  Signed up properly and now unable to log in - terrible app.

### 5/5 — Love the concept - want to see it grow

*2024-03-01, version 2.40.02*

The app isn’t anything out of this world but I love the idea behind registry’s and would love to see this grow.
 I think their must’ve been an update because my app has worked fine. Registered 3 of my bikes and I didn’t have any issues during the process. Pictures were easy to upload. Ordered their little decals for my bikes. Hope I never have to use it 🫣

### 1/5 — Cardboard, tape & a logo

*2023-12-26, version 2.40.00*

This is the app. 

Very unstable.

Bugs aren’t even explained identified by codes.

There was potential.

Please, do stand behind your app.

Make something that is at least functional…

### 3/5 — Account gone

*2023-12-20, version 2.40.00*

I had first signed up and registered my bike. Then I deleted the app. Then I tried to reinstall the app and get back in, but my account was gone. This all happened within a few months. Does one need to keep an app on the phone when it may be months or years in between before a theft happens. Why automatically delete peoples accounts? I assume that was what happened.

### 4/5 — Found bikes section

*2023-07-12, version 2.25.04*

I feel like the apps is missing a found bikes section. Maybe a feed, like on the website?
