About this app

The official app for Citi Bike, NYC’s bike share system.

Citi Bike consists of a fleet of specially designed, sturdy and durable bikes that are locked into a network of docking stations throughout the city. Our bikes can be unlocked from one station and returned to any other station in the system, making them ideal for one-way trips. Bike share is a greener, healthier way to get around — whether you’re commuting, running errands, meeting friends, or exploring in a new city.
The Citi Bike app gives you access to thousands of bikes in your area — unlock and pay directly from the app and get going.

The Citi Bike app also shows upcoming public transit departures, including MTA subway trains, shuttles, local, limited, & express buses, LIRR commuter rail trains, Metro-North commuter rail trains, PATH rapid transit trains, Bee-Line local & express buses, NYC Ferries, the Staten Island Ferry, the AirTrain JFK, the AirTrain Newark, the Roosevelt Island Tramway, and NJT commuter rail trains, light rail trains, & buses.

Within the app, you can purchase the following Citi Bike passes:

The Citi Bike app is the perfect co-pilot for your biking adventures in the city

Fairly good service, app could be better. The bikes generally worked well. Many of the docking stations were broken and wouldn't take a bike, plus it was difficult to find available docks. The app was slow to update and we'd arrive to find the station full. The 30 min time limit can be tough when you have to find an empty spot to dock. The app doesn't let you navigate to a dock and won't keep the screen from going blank. We had to use google for navigation and check back to the citi app.

I would give zero stars but there is no option. Citi Bike is a good idea, but it is pricey. Even if you get the day pass, you still have to abide to the 30 minute ride. Sometimes between traffic and distances, it is difficult to find a dock to return the bike to. We got charged almost $4.36 each for bringing the bike late by a minute...There should be more leniency with the day pass...So we paid $15 for the day pass and then $4.36 on top...

Both bikes and docks are very unreliable, and frequently broken. I cannot begin to count the number of times this faulty service has made me late to work, all because I made the mistake of believing that this was a competently run service. SHAPE UP, CITIBIKE AND LYFT!...or see your customer base go bye-bye. PS— their customer service is just as pitiful; they don't even give you a chance to contact them for help from the app! A truly horribly run service.
