The new Android app: Simple Bike Rental Admin
Managing a bike rental business shouldn’t tie you to your desk. With the new Simple Bike Rental Admin App, you can check bookings, availability and manage your rental system directly from your phone, wherever you are.
Today, we’re releasing version 1.5.0 of Simple Bike Rental, introducing our first Android app and several improvements to the platform.
If you run a bike rental service, you already know the challenge: you need to stay connected to your booking system at all times. Email notifications help, but they don’t provide a quick and complete overview of your business. And for many users, accessing the WordPress dashboard from a computer isn’t always the most practical solution.
That’s why we built the Simple Bike Rental Admin app, a faster, simpler way to manage your rentals directly from your Android device.
The new app connects directly to your WordPress website and gives you access to your rental data in real time. No extra platforms, no complicated setup, just your existing system, now available on your phone.
With the app, you can:
- View and manage bookings anytime
- Check bike availability in real time
- Access your dashboard on the go
- Speed up your daily workflow
- Managing global or bicycle-specific blackouts
Try the admin app
The app works by connecting to the Simple Bike Rental Pro plugin and is currently available through Google Play’s private testing program. To access it:
- Request access using your Google account
- Receive the installation link
- Install the app directly from the Play Store
Installing via Google Play ensures you will receive future updates automatically, without needing to reinstall the app manually.
Here you can find a detailed step-by-step guide to install and set up the app.
This is just the beginning. We’re actively improving both the plugin and the app, and your feedback will help shape the next features. If you’re already using Simple Bike Rental, we’d love you to try the app and tell us what you think.
