Questions

What is micromobility navigation?

It is turn-by-turn directions built for everything on the road that isn’t a car: bikes, e-bikes, scooters, cargo bikes and the riders who deliver on them. Unlike car navigation, it picks streets for how safe they are to ride, and it handles the parts a car app ignores: walking to a hire bike, riding it, and ending the hire where the operator allows. Cyclemate does all three in one route.

Which bikes and bike share schemes does Cyclemate work with?

Your own bike or e-bike, docked bike share such as Santander Cycles, Citi Bike, Bay Wheels and Metro Bike Share, and dockless Lime and Forest e-bikes. Each city’s map shows the schemes it covers, with live bike and dock counts where the operator publishes them.

Does it work for e-scooters and delivery riders?

Yes. Through the API each fleet gets its own profile on the same safety model, with its speed cap, road types and areas to avoid, so scooters, cargo bikes and delivery riders each get routes that suit them. In the Cyclemate app, riders plan trips on bikes and e-bikes.

Where does a bike share or e-bike route end?

Somewhere you are allowed to finish. A docked ride ends at a station with free docks near your destination, a London Lime, Forest or Voi ride ends at a bay that operator can use in the destination borough, and your own bike can end at a rack near the door. A short walk takes you the rest of the way.

Is micromobility safe at night?

It is safer on the right streets. In London and New York City, Night Mode switches on after sunset and prefers lit streets, keeps you out of parks that lock their gates, and shows how much of the route is lit. Lights front and rear are a legal requirement after dark in both cities.

Which cities does Cyclemate cover?

Twelve: London, Manchester, New York City, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Washington DC, Chicago, Seattle, Toronto, Vancouver, Berlin and Sydney. SuperSafe routing and turn-by-turn directions work in all of them; bike share, parking and night routing depend on what each city publishes.

Is Cyclemate free?

Yes. Directions, turn-by-turn navigation with audio, the bike share map and parking are free on iPhone, Android and the web. You pay a hire operator for the bike in its own app, as usual.
