### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2026-07-03, version 5.48.0*

I made sure all of my info and my credit card information was correct multiple times but it still wouldn’t let me unlock a bike.  The rating for this app is a 1.5.  Get your stuff together.

### 2/5 — Unusable because doesn’t go to payment screen

*2026-07-03, version 5.48.0*

App seems generally good but when trying to activate a pass it never goes to the payment screen and just errors out. Needed to use an alternate app for bikes in Monaco.

### 1/5 — DO NOT USE IN HAWAII

*2026-07-03, version 5.48.0*

NONE OF THE DOCKING STATIONS WORK!! YOU WILL GET STRANDED WITH THE BIKE AND GET OVERCHARGED!!! horrible, unmaintained service.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-05-18, version 5.48.0*

It’s like using the internet in 1995. You have to fill out a ton of different form Fields none of which will auto fill and then manually type in a credit card. No Apple Pay no Google pay no Shopify. The time it took me to rent a bike, my other friends walked and got there before me.

### 1/5 — Biki - Hawaii DO NOT PURCHASE

*2026-05-07, version 5.48.0*

There are almost no stations that work in Honolulu. The ones that do work are almost always empty and if there are bikes they are unusable and need repairs. There was one customer service rep who was friendly, although still unhelpful. The rest were very grumpy everytime I called.

### 1/5 — A huge scam

*2026-04-27, version 5.48.0*

Charged $50 for a 3hr ride

### 1/5 — No good

*2026-04-26, version 5.48.0*

Works like a**

### 1/5 — System Broken had to get an uber

*2026-04-17*

the first bike stand that I got to (302) was full of good bikes, but the app said that it was empty so I couldn’t unlock any of them. went to the next stand across the canal down the street that the app said was full and it was full of bikes with flat tires and rusted chains. also noteworthy, these bikes don’t have any kind of integrated parking lock so you can’t make any stops unless there’s a docking stand nearby

### 1/5 — Unusable app design

*2026-04-08, version 5.48.0*

The field to enter the credit card expiration month/year uses a scroll wheel, but the lowest number on the month-wheel is a 4. So you can't enroll if you have a credit card that expires any year during the months Jan-March.

### 1/5 — Sucks

*2026-04-04, version 5.48.0*

I would have given this app a zero star possible yeah I’m one of those people
