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:

Although a convenient service, beware of their predatory charging system. Memberships will sometimes not auto renew and they will start charging your cards on file ridiculous prices per ride, which will often be too late once you see them. They do this on purpose as part of their business plan and customer support makes it clear that there's nothing that can be done about it. The only way to potentially get your money back is through contacting your bank and reporting it as what it is, fraud.

Super convenient and easy. Pretty seamless real world/app interaction. The fee structure is convoluted and misleading, and the app won't let you get a new bike until you review your last ride, super annoying. If you just scan a bike, you're gonna end up paying more than a 24 hour pass if you plan on using it more than 3 times. Of course, in the 24 hour plan, you get charged after 30 minutes, so you're always stopping to switch bikes.

There is ALMOST ALWAYS a difficulty in docking. And if you are not able to dock properly, you get charged an amount as high as $450. The customer service is not responsive either and even though they get data if an attempt was made to dock a bike and was unsuccessful, they notify you a day later so that they can charge you extra like that.
