Extremely convenient. Perfect tool for the summer in Mtl🤩

Tourists be careful. Bixis billing practices are quite dodgy and make you end up spending much more than expected. It’s easy to signup for BIXI unlimited but almost impossible to cancel you have to do it from the website, not the app and they make it confusing, the electric bikes are very expensive and not included in BIXI membership, and most important of all be careful to make sure the bixis properly dock as the docks are finicky or you’ll continue to be charged for hours and hours, I ended up spending nearly $50usd just for a few short rides would have been way better off just renting a bike from the hotel. The rides also bill you after 45 minutes. It’s easy to end yo spending much more then you expected you have to make sure you 1. Cancel on website minute you leave Montreal 2. Make sure all rides are under 45 min and 3. Make absolute sure when you dock your bike you see the little green light, sometimes it “seems” docked but it will actually blink red and keep billing you. Buyer beware

No brainer. This is a must for Montreal!

Never works!!. Just doesn’t work, won’t let me check out, gives random error messages

it’s great. Love this app, very convenient!

UNDISCLOSED CHARGING. Membership maybe fair but if you do not have a membership and you use for a one time use you will have 100 dollars taken out of your account for 10 days maybe more depending on your bank. Note they will take 100 dollars every use so if you use 3 times they will take out 100 dollars 3 times. This is not disclosed vividly when downloading and using the app.

Poorly conceived and limited, use a 3rd party app. Congratulations to the Bixi team on finally releasing an official app for the iPhone. Third party apps have only been available for at least two years so I'm happy to see you staying current. My favorite part of the app was when I opened it for the first time and it asked for access to my location which I granted. Guess what it asked next? Which city's bike service I want to use, even though I was standing three feet away from a bike station in Montreal. The start page has seven icons, only three are actually useful and of course they can't be rearranged or removed. Things don't get better at this point. Both the Telus and SkyMotion items open Safari, i.e. take me out of the Bixi app. Would it have been so hard to build a browser into the app like thousands of other apps seem to do? The Settings item only has one setting, which city's service I want to use. The About should really have been buried under Settings. Bixi Perks actually sounds cool until you open it up and see that there are only six participating businesses in Montreal. Honestly six isn't even worth bothering with, what was the sales team doing all winter? The two important items List and Map are simply different ways of viewing the same information. One item would have been fine especially since there's already a toggle once you are viewing the stations. Much like the 3rd party apps there is a list of stations which can also be viewed on a map, all sorted by proximity to you. All the other apps manage to display both available bikes and available docks at one time with requiring me to toggle between them, why can't you do that? What's up with the Timer function in the station list, shouldn't that be a separate icon on the home screen? Max time is 60 minutes and can only be set in 15 min increments, seems far too limited. Now on the Bixi website there is a map with six different colors of pins representing things. On the website, red pins represent "In Service" from the app, red pins with an X represent "unavailable stations". From the app, green pins represent functional stations with bikes or docks available depending on what you are viewing, meanwhile on the website, green pins represent Communauto stations. "To Come", "Sponsored", "Special Event", "Blocked" and "Communauto" indications simply don't exist in the app. Let's pause for a moment and exit the app and head over to the Settins app. Scroll through the list of apps and you'll see Bixi there. Opening that up allows you to select a city. I can select New York or Chattanooga even though neither of those cities are available from within the app, and neither of them is the city I'd like. I was originally looking for a way to change the language of the app to French, but apparently that's not possible. Since the main purpose of the app is to find Bixi bikes, shouldn't the app launch into the Station list? Or perhaps launch to where I was when I last exited the app? How about giving me a basic intro on Bixi, especially important for the tourists so they don't have to try to decipher the instructions on the station computers. How about letting me pay for Bixi service within the app and just display my 4-digit code on my phone? As a Bixi subscriber, why can't I log into my Bixi account and see the same information that I see when I use the website? There's also no link to the Bixi website, there's no News section displaying recent blog entries. There's nothing linking to the Bixi Facebook or Twitter accounts, there's nothing providing info about becoming a member or trying to sell a membership to me. There's nothing for the Bixi store either. Overall what would have been considered a poor app three years ago now looks downright disgraceful for an "official" app. I really hope something more substantial and better conceived is coming in the near future.

Good system. Still needs some tweaking. Some of the E bikes are locked and some of them don’t operate too well. I’m an experienced Ebike rider/Commuter, 4000 miles a year, visiting from the states. Also the seat posts are sometimes too loose and can’t be adjusted by hand easily shouldHave that corrected.

Best experience ever!. Thanks to Bixi bikes and app, I’ve spent 5 days visiting an ill loved one at the Neurological Institute & Hospital while getting into shape, easing my worried mind and enjoying the beautiful weather.

Useless app. Unable to change phone number, unable to change cc info… so basically a useless app. Impressive

Easy to use. Great app and service. Just make sure you park the bike every 45 min.

App STINKS!!!!. Bixi's app is worse than useless. It only works for three days and then it stops working unless you purchase a membership. I called customer service while I was standing in the street at the bike rack trying to rent a bike. When I finally got a service rep on the phone she attempted to "upgrade" me to a membership too. All I wanted to do was rent one bike; my credit card info was already entered in the app. I deleted the app and just swiped my card in the card reader station at the other end of the bike rack; that worked. Do not waste your time on this useless app. Just rent a bike the old fashioned way.

Glitchy app, broken bicycles.. I tried a Bixi subscription for a couple months and decided to delete. I usually spend 20 minutes walking around to different stations. I find either bikes in disrepair, no bikes at all, or experience technical issues unlocking a bike. A good idea but very poor execution in Montreal.

Garbage. This app is garbage. It doesn’t update and you don’t know until you get to the docks and realize there are no bikes there even though the app said there were plenty. Then you realize it says 14 hours ago. Even if you hit the refresh button. Even if you force close. Junk.

Horrible. Tried to get a bike for a one way trip. My card was declined so I took an Uber instead. Woke up to an $80 charge for a bike the next day when I didn’t even get a bike.

Pretty Good. We used BIXI the entire time while in Montréal (2 weeks) a part from a hidden $200 fee hold on my card which was later sorted out it was really great to use the bikes. If only Montréal had more dedicated bike lanes.

Everything I Need. The app is easy you use and provides what you need to get or return a bike. I like the fact that it has a timer so you know how long you have had the bike. Also it is nice to be able to see the bike routes on the map.

Super easy to figure out. Used this app while visiting Montreal - it’s straight forward and the ride share program was widely available

The time. Everything is okay except time limits

Nice app.. Visited last week. Bixi App worked great. What a great way to explore the city.

They will overcharge you. I’ve contacted their support, deleted my account, deleted the app, and charges of all sorts of amounts just keep happening. Better off walking… i think i’ve paid $50 and used this app for 4 days months ago… horrible company

Bad distribution of bikes around town. Customer service is poor on the phone. Often bixi docks are either completely full or totally empty. Don’t waste your money

Don’t forget to rehook your bike. The bike borrow works well. I only had two issues with it. For some reason you can’t go beyond an half an hr at a time or it changes you 3 dollars every 15 min. So, you have to use it in half hr increments, which makes trips broken up as your looking for bike stations before you reach your destination. On the other hand, they are all around the city. Number two, there are no bike stations at St. Joesph’s. So we almost made the mistake of taking our loaners all the way to St. Joseph’s Oratory. That would have been a big mistake. We forgives the reason for no bikes is because they would have to continuously bring bikes to the top of the Moutain, as St. Joseph’s is up a rathe large hill. Chow for now

No grace period for going over 30 minutes.... Even after purchasing unlimited rides. My partner and I rode together and she got tired, so we both got charged an extra $1.85 for being 2 minutes late. I won’t be using this service again after this trip.

Fantastic! However a method for offline passes is needed. They app is amazing. But if you don’t have data constantly you can’t use it with day/3day/weekly passes. A solution would be random rotating codes, synced so that the app could produce a code correctly even when offline.

great 👍 value, easy to use. great value ….

DO NOT USE. WILL OVERCHARGE YOU, especially if you purchase a monthly membership, which they make it very hard to cancel and will charge you if you cancel it anyways

Parfait. Hyper facile de louer un vélo et de trouver les bornes disponibles

Easy, clear, saving me time and $$$. I’m a very happy new customer. Having used Citibike in the early days when it first launched in NYC, and now moving to Montreal and stepping back into bike sharing years later - wow! So much easier and just all round awesome.

Not worth it. The ride was fine, my bike made noises but whatever. I park it AND make sure the light turned green but it didn’t register on my app. I assumed it was fine though and as a first time user I didn’t know any better. They charged me $20 so I called and asked for a refund. They refused so I closed my account. Montreal has amazing metro and lime scooters, so just use those.

Highway Robbery. This service is robbery. You can rent a bike for a day, but apparently you have every 30 minutes to return it to a station lock it and take a new one all over again. Failure to do so are additional charges every 30 minutes. Amazing service montreal, bravo for inventing a service to robb people. The perfect tourist trap

Love this bike share system!. Stations EVERYWHERE and the app is super easy to use! And the monthly subscription is very affordable.

Loving it. J adore la simplicité de ne pas avoir ma propre bicyclette.

Deceptive pricing. Would have been cheaper to use an Uber. Tried to contact BIXI about the fees and the responded with a useless form letter 5 days later. Beware!

Convenient. Better option than metro if you’re looking to get more cardio into your lifestyle 😁

Best way to get around Montreal. The Bixi system, and the Bixi app, have grown by leaps and bounds in the last few years. It’s the best way to get around Montreal and a joy to use.

Overcharged. Charged $25 for a short trip. Customer service was very unhelpful. Would not recommend to anyone who does not like to be overcharged. Be careful.

Pas facile. Trouver de bons vélos qui fonctionnent, pas évident, surtout les électriques. Pas réussi à en avoir un encore et j'ai bien cherché!!!

Love the app but I wish it did verbal guiding. … because it’s hard to ride a bike in traffic and keep stopping to look at a map on your phone.

J’aime autant BIXI que je ne l’aime pas. Les bornes cette année sont encore plus brisées que l’an dernier. Ce sera quoi l’an prochain?

Légende manquante. Il manque la légende sur la carte. (Signification des icônes)

Louis. Super appli - flexible et intuitive; j’aime aussi la clé quand je n’ai pas mon i phone!

A éviter. A éviter absolument Jamais de vélo au station où que des velo électrique si vous faites plus de 6.2 pieds jamais de vélo à votre taille l’application qui ne fonctionne qu’une fois sur trois et prix de l’abonnement excessif par rapport au service offert. Je ne parle même pas du service à la clientèle car quand on leur écrit pour leur dire que l’on ne trouve pas de vélo à notre taille nous explique comment monter une selle. Bref beaucoup trop cher pour le service offert

BG. Bicyclement génial !

Super. Magnifique

Great App. Working great

L’application fonctionne à merveille. Tout est fonctionnel, ce qui n’est pas donné à toutes les compagnies! Longue vie BIXI et mort à JUMP 😋

Love it! Toured all of Montreal with kids aged 11 & 14!. Love it!

BIXI season in mtl rules. In town for business. Took the bus for the first few days. Associate introduced me to BIXI - game changer. It drove my commuting costs from 10$ per commute to about 75cents per (with a 3 day pass). Used it for all quick trips in town. Perfect for a city the size of MTL.

BIXI is Awesome. Using it for sometime now it’s a god sent for commuters

They charge you 15$ a ride!. They charge you 15$ a ride if you don’t read their minuscule font that the ride is 30 cents per minute and no minute is included when you get the one-way pass! Ridiculous user experinece!

Amis BIXI is useless. Getting point for Amis BIXI is useless, we paid by month so who cares about to get a free ride that’s stupid…

How to log out?. I had created a second account with a different email to be able to buy the season pass. However, it has been impossible to log out the app to log in with the new account. It isn’t possible or I just haven’t figured it out?

Génial !. Particulièrement pour un cycliste qui vient d’être diagnostiqué épileptique… Et qui ne peut plus conduire 😜

Tromper les utilisateurs. Il y a eu changement dans le système d'affichage des vélos disponibles. Avant : pin verte = 50% de vélo et plus. Pin orange = moins de 50% de vélos Maintenant : pin verte = 3-4 vélos et plus. Pin orange = 1à 3 vélos. Ce changement a été fait pour que bixi se sauve la face face à la mauvaise gestion de la flotte, il est nuisible pour les utilisateurs. Pas normal de se taper 10 min de marche vers une station verte et de ne plus avoir de vélo une fois rendu. Autre point : est-ce que vous pourriez régler la map qui pointe vers le sens contraire d'où l'on va? La direction de la carte est à l'envers depuis la version 1.

Vraiment bien. Facile d’utilisation mais quelques bugs pour déverrouiller les vélos à l’occasion. La map pour un itinéraire pourrait être plus pratique pour naviguer les différentes options.

Terrible service. Customer support agents and supervisors are rude, they don’t provide the correct information

I love bixi. But most of the stations are empty and the electric bixis are not available (flat tire or not enough battery).

Appli nulle pour louer des vélos nuls. L’appli ne permet pas de louer plus d’un vélo. Aussi, elle ne fait pas le lien avec la carte de crédit si bien qu’on peut acheter deux abonnements par erreur: une avec l’appli et l’autre avec la carte de crédit, qui est pourtant associée au compte. En plus, les vélos sont laids, lourds et mal entretenus. Les poignées sont collantes par temps chauds, c’est dégoûtant. La selle de plusieurs ne peut pas se mettre assez haut pour quelqu’un avec de grandes jambes. C’est vraiment tout croche votre business, à l’image de Montréal. Un travail d’amateur.

Bixi rating. Bixi is bad, they are over priced for what they give. They don’t pay you back on time. And no warning when they take off bixi station. Very disappointed.

Disappearing trip timer. Sometimes the trip timer doesn’t appear on my bixi app in the corner, super frustrating when the bike apparently ‘doesn’t dock properly’ and you get charged for a 9+ hr stationary trip because you triple checked everything including the app and had no way of knowing. Beware of glitches & apparent user error costing you way more than the bus would have been 😩

Veuillez ne pas tomber dans cette arnaque. Je l'ai loué un jour à un court trajet, j'ai mis le vélo dans une station de métro, l'application me dit qu'il est garé. Le lendemain, je reçois la surprise d'une charge de 100 $ mais ils reconnaissent seulement m'avoir remboursé 70 $. et Aujourd'hui Incroyable mais vrai, j'ai une autre charge de vélo pour 100 $, je ne reconnais pas l'autre charge de 100 $ et ils acceptent seulement de me rembourser 70 $. Certainement le pire service, J’ai écrit aux informations, et le personnel ignore les frais qu’ils facturent à ma carte de credit. J’exige un remboursement complet des deux frais qui ont été portés à ma carte de crédit.

Parfait, ou presque. Très bon service overall, je suis satisfait. Certaines bornes mériteraient un peu d’amour mais l’application est ultra fonctionnelle et en temps réel.

Bixi. Excellent moyen de transport

I love bixi!. I love the convenience!

Super mais les comptables travaillent pas fort. Je trouve généralement que l’application fonctionne bien mais souvent, trop souvent, la transaction est refusée et on ne me dit pas pourquoi. Par exemple, je n’ai pas réussi à acheter un service pour une deuxième personne !

Besoin d’une mise à jour. Les données fournies par l’application sont tés souvent inexactes. Exemple une station avoir 3 vélos électriques et il n’y en a aucun. Souvent il faut fermer et réouvrir l’application à plusieurs reprises pour pouvoir prendre un vélo. L’application ne charge pas bien pour déverrouiller un vélo. BIXI doit grandement améliorer la fiabilité de son application.

The new update really needs improvement. First, sharing with friends option disappeared: the 2-people silhouette can’t be found. We tried to unlocked a bike for a friend and there’s no way to do that. Second, the app simply says “something went wrong” whereas some problem can clearly be indicated: for example, once I unlocked a bike that’s not great, when I docked it and tried to unlocked another one, the app said “something wen wrong”. Took me a while to realized that it’s simply because the first bike wasn’t docked properly and the app could have said “it looks like you already unlocked a bike” which will solve the problem easily. Then after I docked the bike properly and tried to unlock another one, the app said the same thing, where it would’ve been much nicer to say “please wait for a minute after you dock a bike to unlock a new one”. These kind of things really matter for the app user because it affects people’s mood and stress level a lot, especially when their friends are waiting or when they are in a rush. Knowing what’s wrong and knowing that it’s a easy fix is much much better than not knowing what’s wrong exactly. Hope the developers can fix these issues sooner than later.

Review. Good, easy to use but no information about the legend of the map.

Application déficiente. Les trois dernières fois que j’ai voulu prendre un Bixi, j’ai été incapable d’en déverrouiller un. Impossible de parler à qui que ce soit. Vraiment dommage d’offrir un aussi mauvais service.

Scam. I bought a 2 pases and the cost was 2.32$ Suddenly I received a 200$ charge in my bank account. What is this ??? I couldn’t even use a freaking Bike cause the app never wanted to read the code and then it said that If I wanted to buy another pass

Ne pas utiliser en cas d’urgence. J’ai du prendre un bixi pour la première fois et les informations inscrites sur les bornes ainsi que ceux dans l’application son totalement différentes. De plus, la carte n’est pas clair donc quand on ne viens pas de Montréal on ne sais pas le temps que ça prend se rendre entre deux bornes différentes.

Wow. Vraiment très complète! BIXI a fait vraiment du bon travail avec cette appli!

Poor for tourists. Cannot rent 2 bikes with 1 account. Stupid if you’re a couple from out of town.. Rented 1 but couldn’t rent another. Rented 1 e-bike and walked to another nearby station where a 2nd e-bike was. Tried repeatedly to set up a second account with a second card/email but couldn’t. Was charged for the first bike even though we didn’t actually go anywhere.

APP SUCKS. Application doesn’t work, almost all bikes have a problem. Instead of update making it work, the update just changed the messages that says the bike won’t work

BIXI ouiii !!. BIXI c’est très cool et ça fonctionne très bien en général. Parfois les rack sont pleins ou bien le vélo ne se clip pas au rack ce qui est très décevant surtout lorsque qu’il ne restait qu’une seule place 😕

A quand l’intégration sur Apple Watch?. Ou bien, à quand le support à téléphone sur les vélos?

Graaaaape. Noice

Totally disappointed. This is stupid! It is like I throw out my money in garbage. I got the seasonal membership and I can hardly find available bikes in the stations near my place. It is most of the times empty. And it does not work properly! It showed me 3 available bikes, I took the bus and ran for it to be able to get 1. But none of them worked! The code didn’t unlock any of the bikes! I am really angry! It’s like hunting! I run to hunt a bike, and when I get there, no one unlocks!!!!

Des arnaqueurs. Points d’ancrage défectueux à tout bout de champ (surtout durant une urgence), système de réservation déficient (1x sur 2 le message « une erreur est survenue » apparaît Et finalement, tu veux savoir si une compagnie est frauduleuse? Leur fonction pour se déabonner prend 1000 ans à trouver tellement elle est cachée.

Great app, so many bikes!!. The best bike share in the world? I think so!

Terrible experience. Parked the bike and saw the green light. But the app keeps counting as I didn't end my ride. I tried to pull out the bike in order to re-park it, but it didn't work. Nothing I can do during that time. Sent an email to customer service to report the issue, and no one followed up. It was a 20-minute ride and cost me 17.4 dollars. The CS said it didn't park properly and kept counting the duration until the next customer unlocked it. I'm not using it anymore and am not gonna recommend anyone to use it.

L’essayer c’est l’adoper. Tres cool.

Full docks. The worker at night filled up every single dock. All around the neighborhood there were no docks. People had to bike over 40 minutes away just to find a dock Horrible service, and there app bugs every time

J’adore. Tellement facile à utiliser !!! M’encourage à utiliser des BIXI plus souvent !!
