Ratings and reviews

App is generally easy to use and smooth. Updates on number of bikes or docks available is reasonably current/ precise. The process for notifying Mobi of a problem with a bike is terrible though. It takes you out of the app and requires you to enter all of your info again. I'm sure their maintenance would be better if they made it easy for users to flag bikes in need of repair.

The app has been majorly updated and is now super easy and intuitive to use. My favourite feature is the ability to filter for the kind of bike you're looking for (ebike vs regular pedal bike), or if you're looking for an available dock, it can show that on the map as well. I honestly do not leave home without checking this app first for bike availability in my area - it majorly helps me plan my trip/route. If you're a regular Mobi user, this app is pretty much indispensable.

Aaargh - the app doesn't show your location! Finding a mobi parking can be stressful because of that. There are a few more painful usability issues, such as the map being completely covered with icons if zoomed out (!?). The service itself is useful in some locations but flawed (too few stations and/or too many bikes (can't park)) The pricing scheme is ridiculous. When biking a long distance you have to make "fake swaps" along the way to avoid the +30 minute penalty (!?)
