Stopped showing the bicing stations on the map, which makes it pretty useless for me.
by Fabian Venga, 2024-12-14

UPDATE: Now the new version of the app is draining the battery: 28% in 24h . Why?? Can you please hire competent developers? Bicing service needs an improvement!! Most of the time stations are either empty or full. Electrical bikes are often out of order. You know when one station is close to be full/empty why don't you manage it properly?

Two updates in as many weeks and neither can fix the fact the bike stations no longer show on the map. Very very poor
