About this app

Official mobile application for Montreal metropolitan area’s bike share system.

It allows users to purchase one-way passes and memberships and to rent a bike. A map of the stations shows, in real time, the number of bikes and docking points available at each station so you can plan your routes. Access your personal space to learn more about your trips and usage statistics.

Ratings and reviews

Although not perfect in UI and UX, gets the job done. I would have given it 5 stars but around my area there almost none classic bikes, so I always have to go further and that constantly changes my plans. Customer service is great, though! I've had trouble docking a few times and they have solved the situations appropriately. All in all, is worth it for $22 to not to have to fix your own bike or even invest in one, considering the weather here (Montréal) is so harsh for 60% of the year 😂

Far and away the best way to get around Montreal on a budget. Bixi locations are also integrated into Google maps so if you have wireless earbuds you can navigate the city via audio prompts. The manual bikes are geared easily enough for most and the electric bikes are great if you need a boost. The system is super simple to use on a trip by trip basis, or with a monthly membership.

After recent version update with the new interface, the application is slower, loading app takes longer, clicking scan takes 5 sec to load the camera, when clicking on a station to see availability it takes 2-3 seconds and sometimes I think I didn't click so it receiving twice click so it close the menu, so annoying, these updates just make the user expirence just worst.. The new icons are now smaller than before (station icons) This app should be light and fast. It's a 1 star for the app.
