    The app logs me out quite often. It's frustrating to keep entering my password. The stations with bike availability take forever to show up. It feels more like a waste of time instead of saving it.

    The instructions for linking the bicing card frustrate me. The app often doesn’t work at all. I see a message about improving the app. Meanwhile, I have places to go and cannot use my bicing card. This experience deserves a 0 out of 5.

    The app can feel a bit confusing at times. Still, having such an integrated system makes it all worthwhile. Using it for parking and EV charging in Barcelona was a great experience!

    It's been a frustrating month. I've lost stored authentication three times, making it hard to get on the bike. The app often tells me there’s no internet connection, but I can still receive messages on WhatsApp. I enable my location ten minutes before I want to use the bike, yet the app insists that location isn't enabled. I try to scan the QR code, but when I'm too close, it doesn’t recognize it. Loading and starting up take forever. It's annoying. I wish there was another app for Barcelona bicycles.

    Barcelona dazzled with its nights. A bike ride sounded like the perfect adventure. Excitement bubbled up as plans formed. Tried to register, ready to pay. Then reality hit—a long-term plan? An NIE number? Confusion set in. Tourists like me had no need for that. Just wanted a simple ride. Disappointment washed over. A city so vibrant yet felt so far away in that moment.

    The app performs exceptionally well! It has great features and user experience. The pricing, however, feels quite harsh. Overall, the functionality shines through.

    It’s frustrating! The connection between Smou and Bicing only works sometimes. It’s a paid service. It makes me embarrassed to be in IT when I see this poor programming and integration. In our integrated world, Smou is falling short. The support from Smou is not helpful either. They just want to send a new Bicing card. Why can’t they just fix the app? I sent a detailed report to get a card, yet here we are. Such a shame!

    The new version struggles. It disconnects frequently and fails to recognize correct emails and passwords. The previous version worked perfectly. Why introduce new features that disrupt functionality?
