Tremend Software Consulting Undertakes the Development of the Bike Sharing App Ape Rider by Pegas

Bucharest, Romania, October 19, 2018 –(PR.com)– Pegas’ bike sharing service has the potential to reach 100,000 users by the end of this year, solving a major urban mobility problem. Ape Rider targets both commuters and those who want to get quickly from one area of the capital to another, avoiding congested traffic.

“Ape Rider relies greatly on this mobile application, so it is extremely important for it to be stable and scalable. The technical specs were improved and also the ease of use. Now the app will be more customer oriented too, a pillar of our team’s philosophy. Our partnership came naturally, we represent two 100% Romanian brands and I think we can provide an excellent user experience with the next releases of this application,” said Ioan Cocan, Managing Partner at Tremend Software Consulting.

The 2,000 bikes available through Ape Rider are monitored via GPS and sport cutting-edge motion sensors. The dockless system offers the flexibility that customers need to move quickly and park the bike in one of the designated areas. The Ape Rider app gives you a map with available bicycles and the virtual parks, so it’s very easy to find a Ape Rider bike.

With the Ape Rider mobile app, users can book and use a bicycle, with a cost of 1.9 lei per half hour, regardless of the number of km they cover. Payment is made directly into the app. Since the launch of the app and up until present, users have done a total of 140.000 bicycle rides.

“We set out to offer a different urban mobility alternative through intuitive, effortless use, and working with Tremend is yet another step in this direction. Tremend is a partner that has understood fast what we really needed and has shown full availability to engage in the development of the application so that we can offer our Ape Rider customers the promised experience,” said Andrei Botescu, co-founder of Pegas Workshops, the Ape Rider program.

The following versions of the application will focus on the improvement of the payment method for the rides, the bikes� pinpoint location on the map and the ease of the system’s maintenance by providing high-performance tools and reports on system monitoring and its use.
