Ratings and reviews

This app is by far the worst of all the escooters. It has the potential to be good but it has so many weird quirks. Why the loading bar when you unlock a scooter? It moves so slowly and I've never seen it get past 6% before the scooter unlocks. When you end the ride, instead of taking you directly to the camera, it adds an extra tap in case you want to "Add a photo from the gallery." In what use case would I ever need to do that lmao. Why would I have a photo of my parked scooter already in my gallery. Feel like it should also use an in-app camera view, rather than taking you to the native camera app. Lime and bird do this better. Then the loading bar again after you take the photo! It's never gone past 4% when locking. A lot of pretty unprofessional screens in the app as well, like the contact screen which is... Just a list of email addresses. And why are all the speedometers in kilometers per hour? The whole product feels like it was launched when it was only 75% finished. Just a bit more work and it could be up to par with the rest of the scooters.

Used to be my favorite app for scooters. It is now the worst. Issues with rides and ending them (scooters stopping unexpectedly), the in-app map is not clear, the colors sometimes don't show up, misleading you to believe an area is operational although it is not (after being available for years), and parking spots being barely visible. Support is buggy, you dont get notifications for incoming messages, and you cannot send (.heic) images (which are the default format for most modern smartphones).

Not worth it. Parking spot isn't clearly indicated and took me a while to understand it was in a subterranean parking lot. The scooter itself is nice but service is expensive and not very helpful. Edit: I forgot to mention that the "first unlock free" is a lie. The minimum charge is $10, $6 for a quick ride and $4 for the time it takes to find parking
