We present the development and evaluation of the E@sy-Bikes application, an innovation in bike rental aimed at providing a quality experience for users. The research focuses on creating a platform that integrates advanced real-time geolocation and sharing features, allowing user registration, generation of personalized profiles, and bike release through QR codes or tokens. It covers both web and mobile versions to offer greater accessibility and convenience to users. The focus is on the user experience with smooth navigation, an attractive layout, and functional features. In addition to promoting bike rental as an affordable, healthy, and sustainable option, the E@sy-Bikes application would be a profitable alternative to other means of transportation, contributing to pollution reduction and well-being. Security is also prioritized, with the use of technologies such as QR codes and specific rental points. For its development, comprehensive research of relevant sources was conducted, providing a solid theoretical foundation for demand analysis and flexibility in this process, market research, and agile management. The article highlights the E@sy-Bikes application as an innovative solution in bike rental, with an emphasis on user experience, convenience, and sustainability. The results obtained so far indicate its feasibility and effectiveness, as well as its potential to serve a wide user base through the integration of advanced technological features in a convenient and sustainable manner, contributing to a healthier lifestyle and environmental preservation.
