Reviews
Not working on iPad anymore?
Hub Rider
This is a great app but with the new update now it doesn't seem to work properly on iPad. I like the improvements in graphics from what I can see. Sometimes it crashed but functionality overall and data quality has been reliable. Unfortunately I had to delete it - the buttons don't all work and I can't seem to see my favorites any longer. Hoping for an iPad version!
Well done!

I used this app on my iPhone constantly for a 4 day trip to dc. It's not at all buggy. Updated lightening fast. Make sure you turn on the show bike lanes feature as those were helpful. Only thing I would have liked to see added were metro stops.
Really?

No New York City maps? Are you kidding me? Deleted before I could even use it. I'll download something useful. Amateurs.
Better than citibike app
ZooPrincess
I love the pie charts for the stations in NYC. Far better than the app citibike provides.
Would be nice if it worked

The feature set looks nice, but the app very rarely works (on an iPad3). Usually, it starts, displays the list of favorite stations, then hangs. The hubway web page is a PITA to use, but at least it works reliably.
Good app
longlivesundays
Great at finding the location stations and count of bikes. Design wise, it could be more like CitiBike's beautiful app. Would be cool if a notification would pop up every 10-15 min of my timer/time left using the bike.
Great for tourists

We used spotcycle on our recent trip to DC and it worked great! We tried to keep the cost low (and plug on every 30 minutes) and this app was perfect for that- letting know how many bikes were available as well as how many docks were open. We HIGHLY recommend this app.
Love it!

iOS 7.03 Hands down best app for B-cycle systems. I should know, why? We use it exclusively for field operations on one and love it.
