The Bixi Land app shows a map of all the Montreal Bixi docking stations, The mapped locations are colour-coded to indicate whether there are bikes and/or spaces available. The station status is updated in real-time.
The extensive Montreal Island bike path network is traced on the underlying map.
Tapping a button centers the map to the rider's true GPS position.
The app will locate the closest docking station and then shows its current status in a pop-up box.
There is also a brief explanation of the Bixi price calculations, which can be confusing to the new user.
