“Today, our friend Andreas at London Cyclist released a new iPhone app, Bike Doctor 1.0. Developed to help you diagnose what ails your bike, you simply click on the location of the problem on your bike (brakes making funny noises, broken spoke, punctured inner tube, etc.) and it guides you through the process of fixing it.”

Dreaming of version 2

It’s early days still for the Bike Doctor iPhone app but we’re already dreaming of version 2.

The number 1 most requested feature so far is to port the App over to the Android. Therefore if you are an Android developer please do get in touch!

Here’s some more ideas we’ve been given or were working on:

  • Bike safety check that you can do before every ride
  • A monthly bike maintenance schedule that can automatically be added to your calendar/push notifications
  • More repairs
  • More roadie repairs – Staring with taping the handlebars and brake replacement
  • An iPad version?
  • Quiz that helps you discover the problem with your bike
  • “On the road” repair tips if you don’t have all your tools with you
  • Way of keeping track of the maintenance you have done
  • More languages (German, Chinese, Greek etc..)
