### 1/5 — Worst experience ever. Stole my money

*2026-08-13, version 26.5.1*

The pickup and return process is so complicated. It allowed me to take only 2 at a time while it said the limit was more (4 think). 

They need your phone and yourself to be physically present at the place of returning for it to work. For example you can’t rent for your kid or friend and let them return at a hub without your presence. They need so many pictures and GPS and all that and it’s just horrible. 

Also my wife’s phone had a GPS issue and the app failed to locate her for her to correctly return. But it didn’t have a problem in letting her pick it up. GPS issue was never a problem for pickup but a problem when you return. How convenient. 

This caused major delays and it charged extra due to the delays. 

Avoid at all costs.

### 1/5 — Renting but led on this app is not a good idea

*2026-08-04, version 26.5.1*

I rented bikes in West Concord Massachusetts and it took over 40 minutes to unlock four bikes. After our bike ride, it took forever to return the bikes. The app wouldn’t let me end the ride in order to lock the bikes back up. Customer service was not helpful. They would tell me the steps to returning and locking but couldn’t understand that these steps weren’t working. There’s no one to speak to, only a chat options that takes a long time to communicate back and forth. I will never rent using this app again. Hopefully the Town of Concord can find another company to use to rent bikes.

### 3/5 — Glitchy app, fun rental

*2026-08-01, version 26.5.1*

I used this on a kayak rental in Kansas. It was fun check out worked well. App just froze on one of the instruction slides.

Then return the camera through the app kept going black, my camera app worked fine but was black in the app. So my friend logged in on his phone to do the return. Got one returned and put away then the second didn’t take so we had to remove it all from the lockers again take the pics and it took the second time.

### 5/5 — Bike Rentals

*2026-07-31, version 26.5.1*

The Movatic app allows you to rent bike lockers in various cities. It’s easy to use! They have a good customer support that helped me when I experienced an issue. I think this is a great idea and service to encourage people to bike more! :)

### 1/5 — Trash app that doesn’t work

*2026-07-18, version 26.5.1*

I rented a kayak but there was nowhere in the app to start the return. All the kayak lockers had issues. Some don’t lock at all. Customer service kept telling me to re-rent it so I could end it. Couldn’t re-rent, couldn’t end.  If I get charged for extra time, I’m going to be soooo livid.

### 1/5 — Terrible Experience

*2026-07-09, version 26.5.1*

I rented a bike on the waterfront in Newburyport.  When I returned the bike there were 3 slots open to return it to, but all 3 of the cables were broken.  I had to wait an hour until someone rented one of the other bikes that had an unbroken cable.  After I finally locked it and left, I started getting messages from Movaic saying that I needed to return the bike.  It’s 24 hours later now and I’m still getting the messages.  There’s no one to call to clear up the mess.  I’ll never rent another bike through them.

### 1/5 — horrible

*2026-07-08, version 26.5.1*

the app never works properly, i just had to wait 10+ minutes for the app to load just so i can end my rental.

once my phone nearly died while i was trying to end the rental after 20 minutes of trying to get to lock to work when putting the bike away. i tried to contact help, it told me i would get a real person, instead i got an ai who told me to “try locking the bike” after i explained it would not lock even after looking up tutorials and doing everything right.

it would be very helpful to have a app like this if the app bothered working

### 2/5 — Glitchy app, lots of kayaks in maintenance mode, very heavy

*2026-07-06, version 26.5.1*

Used for the first time and I signed up for the annual membership. I was able to reserve 1 kayak and tried reserving the other 3 and kept having issues. Reached out to support, apparently it was my bank denying it. Reached out to my bank, they said everything was fine. I could only reserve the other 3 if I unchecked ‘join’ on the membership option each time. By the time I finally got them reserved, the first was into 30 minutes or so. If I’m paying $100 for 4 kayaks to use once, I’d be better off paying $99 a yearly membership but it wouldn’t work. I’m just going to avoid this app as much as possible

### 1/5 — Can’t cancel

*2026-07-01, version 26.5.1*

Within the app the can auto renew is nonfunctional. There is no way to confirm cancellation. You can only report problems to a chat internal to the app. It’s useless. They forward it “to the team” but tell you they can’t cancel on their end. Feels like a scam.

### 1/5 — Very unresponsive

*2026-06-25, version 26.5.1*

The concept behind the app may be fine, but the app itself is sluggish and unresponsive like it was built by an amateur
