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 app offers a convenient service but one thing makes it intolerable. Single rides are expensive, so I got the $25 day pass. Expensive, but at last you're covered for the day right? Wrong. You only get 30-minute rides included. After that it's still $0.38 a minute! So you can never get a bike, ride and relax. You ALWAYS have to have your eyes on the clock. After 20 minutes, you're looking for the next parking station to end your trip & start another one, which ruins the experience.

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.
