What the app does

🚲

Find the Right Bike

Filter by classic bikes, e-bikes, or bikes with a child seat. Each e-bike shows its current battery level so you know how far it can take you before you even leave.

📊

Know Before You Go

Check typical availability for any hour of the day. If your regular station tends to be empty during the morning rush, the app will tell you so you can plan ahead.

🔔

Never Miss a Bike

Tap the bell on any station to set a notification. The moment a bike becomes available there, you’ll get an alert. Useful for peak hours when stations empty out fast.

🗺️

Walking Routes with Lane Info

Walking directions to the nearest station, with the cycling infrastructure along your route: separated bike paths, marked lanes, or shared spaces. No surprises once you’re on the bike.

Smart Suggestions

Does it work in English?

Yes. The app is fully available in English, Deutsch, Español, Français, Italiano, Nederlands, and Русский. It switches automatically based on your device language.
