SAN
FRANCISCO, May 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Bike Index,
the nation's leading nonprofit bike registry service, today
announced the release of its new iOS app to simplify bike
registration for cyclists everywhere. The open source app was
created by their team of biking developers.
The Bike Index app will make it easier for all
bike owners to register their bikes. It provides a seamless account
creation and bike registration process so that users can easily
register one or more bicycles from anywhere in the world.
"We're thrilled to launch this new iOS app, which
makes it incredibly easy for any bike owner to get their bikes
registered," says Seth Herr,
co-founder of Bike Index. "As we continue to grow Bike Index's
registry, mobile tools like this are key to encouraging more riders
to get their bikes registered."
In addition to helping individual cyclists, the
Bike Index app will be a valuable tool for the nonprofit's official
and unofficial partners, including cities, police departments,
college campuses, bike shops and others. These organizations can
use the app to quickly search for stolen bikes from the convenience
of their mobile devices.
The free Bike Index app can be downloaded from
the App Store. To learn more about Bike Index and its mission to

About Bike Index
Bike Index is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization
founded in 2013 by Seth Herr and Bryan Hance to make bike
registration simple in order to combat bike theft. The online
registry helps cyclists register their bikes, report them as
stolen, and increase the chance that stolen bikes are recovered and
returned to their owners.
Bike Index partners with municipalities, local
law enforcement agencies, bike shops, community organizations,
universities and other groups to build a globally accessible
database of bikes. With over 1.2 million bikes in the registry and
the ease and accessibility of the iOS app, Bike Index expects that
number to continue to rise. Learn more at www.bikeindex.org.
