Now a Must Have Before it was useful for finding stations but the mapping and location features just weren't good enough. Its still a little jerky, despite running on KitKat, but now miles better. Finding your location is now much more accurate, you can set home and work locations, favourite stations etc. Top routes adds a nice finish. Overall now a must have if you use Barclay's Bikes.

Not able to remove or change destinations Very good app!! The only reason why i dont give 5* is because if you add a destination you cannot change it or delete it. Which is a bit annoying. Is it possible at all?
★★★★★
Great way to find a ride Found the app easy to use and information accurate.
★★☆☆☆
Could be useful The app is very nice when it works, unfortunately that's not that often. The map doesn't load properly a lot of the time, and then the app eventually crashes.
★★☆☆☆
Doesn't work The app doesn't even open....crashes every time...useless
★★☆☆☆
Just doesn't work! The map wouldn't load any nearby docking stations, and when it finally did the docking station turned out to be full despite the app saying there were enough spaces.. Horrible, clunky experience. . Avoid!
★★☆☆☆
Often fails to update Works for a bit, then stops updating my location/location of bike racks. Not very useful
