Love using these bikes. And the app is great. Never had any issues.

Works wonderfully. Parking Mode during a ride is also no problem. I've had different experiences with other providers.

I discovered the app when I moved from the country to the city for my studies and couldn't take my bike with me. It's quick and easy, even better than I thought. Great idea!
