Stopped showing the bicing stations on the map, which makes it pretty useless for me.

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

Last update ruined the app. Bicing stations dont appear anymore on the map, not even with the usual tricks of switching between views or restarting the app. And with availability if bikes and empty spaces at stations being highly unreliable makes it pretty much an unusable service

They shall call it the immobility app. Worst ever experience every single time! Stations always full. not possible to book extra minutes as it says 1 free space is available while it is broken. Make it more expensive but functional!

Garbage app, unfortunately have to use it every day. Bad use of my taxes.

Surely one of the worst bike rental services in Europe. The bikes are extremely heavy and often in dangerously bad shape (e.g. slippery rubber tires, failing brakes, bent pedals), it is extremely difficult to report issues with bikes through the app, and they lock you out for 10 minutes if you try to get a replacement, empty/full stations are common, customer service is near non-existent, the app takes forever to load, locking the bikes often requires force which is noisy and unreliable....

This service is an absolute disgrace. Don't ever, ever use it - get your own bike. Good luck ever finding a parking space, or a bike when you need it. On top of that, they've bought fake reviews to get them to 4 stars. I'd rather wipe my arse with sandpaper than use Bicing again. Sort it out. Get some more bikes and put in some more parking spaces.

The app is not working. I was next to another person wanting to take a bike same issue, the app doesn't work. Don't buy the subscription is a waste of money.

The prices are the only good thing about this service. The app is slow, unresponsive, lacks animations and crashes often. The bikes are quite often missing brakes. Some areas of the city never have electric bikes and when they do those are marked as out of service. During summer the areas near the sea always either have no bikes or no spots left. Pretty terrible really...
