Hard to use

It’s pretty clunky. Needs sorting. Also can’t just look without putting in card details (when signing up)

Terrible UI & Authentication

Simply doesn’t work

Unusable app

Dreadful. Still not working

Can’t login, can’t hire a bike. Just a blank screen when I try. Just a complete waste of time. Avoid.

Good idea poorly executed.

I like the idea and I can see the advantages; widened transport possibilities for users and expanded exposure for the Brompton brand. Down side is the iPhone app, which plain just will not load due to difficulties with the registration process. This needs fixing and soon.
