Garbage. Do not use

Used one of these bikes in Oahu to get to a boat ride in the morning. The app wouldn’t let me and my partner park the bikes because they were in “no parking zones”. There was also no map within the app that showed us where we could park. We rode around for 20minutes trying to find a spot where the app would let us park (including designated bike parking areas in Oahu). Finally, my partner was able to get her bike to end ride but in the EXACT SAME LOCATION, I wasn’t able to do the same. Had to end up leaving the bike running because I wasn’t able to park and was about to miss my boat ride. Total charge: $65 usd for a bike ride that was supposed to be 20minutes.

Fun but parking confusing

It didn’t really explain that you have to park next to the other scooters. As a first time user the app kept saying ‘park in the green circle’—I was in the green circle… finally realized I had to park with the other scooters and then the app wouldn’t recognize that I was swiping to end the ride. I had to kill my wifi and kill the app, THEN it let me stop the timer. It’s still cool, but I wish the parking was emphasized when I opened the app or something. At least I know now, user error, but the app timer still going after I parked correctly is an extra drag.

Scam!

Looked easy but it wasn’t! We were not able to end the ride. There were no locations provided on the maps. Kept on saying no parking zone. The site mentioned “check the maps below for the parking areas” guess what no maps were provided. Finally we just had to leave them very far from where we actually wanted. We tried different bicycle stands, places away from the buildings and what not! Never doing it again.
