Bixou

About Bixou Android App

Bixou for Android is the perfect companion for the BIXI™ urban bikeshare service, the only application with support for 17 countries and 80+ cities; we are constantly adding new city support! See the closest stations, number of bikes, and docking spaces available. Use GPS to easily navigate your way to any destination with real-time distances and estimated walking/cycling time to each station. With the full Bixou version, you can search for specific stations, manage your favorite stations, see all the stations in your city, and get an overall map of the stations in the area. Scaled station icons give you an easy way to see the station size and availability of your departure and destination.
The application originally developed for the iPhone and Windows Phone, Bixou is now available on Android.
