Bike Citizens Cycling App GPS App Reviews

Great application for commuting as well as pleasure rides

Downloaded the app and was hoping for a good experience. Managed to avoid the misleading purchase requests and got it working to try before buying. Did one ride, worked great. Tried to use it again, but kept getting GPS position is unknown error. Google Map had no such problem with my GPS position, and since it also does bike routes for free, I’m not seeing the point of this app. I did try to make a big report through the app, but I also got an error. Oops! Seems like my GPS position isn’t recog

This app felt safer to me than google maps in real time on the road. But I would love to be able to add multiple destinations on my routes & I am disappointed that I can’t automatically set my current position as a starting point. Otherwise I’m very happy with this app in place of a bike computer. Get more NYC people on here! I want more from the social aspects of this app! It has great potential for biking communities.

Awesome 👍🏽

Five years later better all the time.

This is definitely my preferred bicycle routing app! It gives multiple route good options, depending on your preferences.

Columbus, Ohio is full of high-speed, high traffic roads, and gravely lacks protected bike lanes (or bike lanes at all on most streets.) This app at least lets you find the streets with less traffic. Super useful when you’re trying to get someplace that you haven’t been before and want to know the safest route. As a consequence, it can take you on horrifically uneven brick roads at times, but at least you’re less likely to be hit by a car.

Downloaded the app but was unable to install the “Bay Area South Map”, it says “City Pack not found.” And I’m not willing to purchase the entire world pack for $18. As of right now the app is useless to me, I wanted better bike routes but I can’t even find out if they’re any good before I buy it.

Even after the recent overhaul, the biking directions this app produces often make no sense. They route me down side streets with tons of stop signs. They tell me to cross busy streets at unsignalized locations. They take me way off course just to ride on random paths on the sides of busy roads.
