  • Tulsa OK visitor blown away

    OMG what an awesome way to bounce from bike station to station, take a quick walking tour at each stop, hit a pub, a park, the museum. Helps you nail it EASILY to get a -0- charge for the day!!! Loved, loved it.
  • Good app but one big problem

    App works great if you want to know if there's a bike available next to you, but it doesn't allow me to see if a bike dock is open where I'm biking to if its not close.

    The app would be terrific if it had the option to use my location "while using the app" but it requires my location "always". This kills my battery, this needs to change.

    Developer Response

    The app no longer asks for "Always" permissions unless you want to have background updates enabled.
  • Integrate with Toronto Bike Map?

    This app provides great info on the bike sharing system. But what is missing for the occasional user are the recommended routes to get from one station to another. Is there any way to integrate it with the bikeways map so that when I click on a destination it will give me a suggested route? Construction detours would also be helpful :)
  • Data frequently incorrect

    I use the app to identify stations with available bikes and racks. The app consistently has incorrect data about the number of racks, causing me to waste time in real life hunting down available racks. I will change to 5 stars when this is fixed.

    Developer Response

    We get our data directly from Toronto Bike Share, so if they are inaccurate (as they are from time to time), we are as well.
  • Awesome streamlined interface

    Toronto Bikes really makes finding the few closest docks super easy… especially when using one handed on a bike.
  • Excellent app

    Works as described and had better user experience that I had expected. Great work!
