Newt - Scooter Sharing Reviews

by EPX_G

Tried using these scooters with a group of 7 people. 3 of us were able to download Newt but the other 4 were unable to sign in after creating 3 separate accounts. Newt is poorly made and the scooters are in dire need of service. One of our friends was unlucky enough to log it and get a scooter but it died after 4 measly minutes. Which we weren’t even using the scooter for because half of us couldn’t use Newt to log it and get our own. The scooter broke after 4 minutes and continued to charge her $60!!!!

I had the most horrible experience riding these scooters. It took almost 30 minutes just to download Newt and create an account just to ride the scooters on international drive in Orlando. After our ride we were not even able to end our session. As the time clock continued to count we had to sit anxiously while waiting for a phone signal just to end it. The ride was not worth the hassle.

The scooters in Orlando are the worst I’ve ever used. Half of them don’t work and are in poor condition. They are the slowest scooters I’ve ever used. Honestly I think they slowed them down to increase profit. I paid almost $30 for one hour, and never got to go to my destination because it was “out of the area.” They don’t tell you about the restricted areas until you are done riding. I’d just stick to using Spin or Bird.

Newt is absolutely abysmal in comparison to other scooter providers. Not user friendly, poor customer support, lack of functionality. Use as a last option.

Scooters are great, but when you go to end a ride…good luck. Also, sometimes Newt doesn’t even show where the scooters are. Newt and tech needs a lot of work. But the scooters are a great way to get around.

I’ve ridden the scooters in Seattle and they went so fast, Newt worked perfect and all.
Unfortunately Newt and these scooters are awful. It takes like a half hour to download and get them to unlock, as well as ending the ride. It’s absolutely awful.

Only problem is we couldn’t figure out how to rent two scooters on one app, so added time to our ride trying to download Newt onto another phone so we could ride two scooters.

The best way to enjoy Orlando is on the back of one of these scooters! Super easy to use, safe and incredibly enjoyable! I take one of these baby’s out for a spin every time I need to be on the Florida sun! It’s way better than I could have expected. this app is the new and improved Lime!

Glad I only had 5 dollars on my card to try this cause they tried charging me 25 dollars. And for what?

by Lotustrbo

Like the scooter don’t like that it has zones. Had to go back away from my destination in order to end the ride

by Rico Zoe

Each of the Newts have their own personal names. They’re smooth n easy to ride. Don’t have to load $10 minimum just to ride like the others. Lovin the sleek black look too

I had walked for 15 minutes and decided to give the scooter a try for the first time and man I’m glad I did! Saved my tired feet😂

by Joyhearts

Super fun! Make sure you know where to leave your scooter - if the sliding toggle button to end ride doesn’t end it means you have not left it in an acceptable area -

by 121132133

Only let’s you drive in certain areas and doesn’t warn you that you’re leaving them. I had to drive it back several miles just to walk back to where I was. Do not use

by Ahdhcisi

Wouldn’t let me sign up I was waiting in the cold trying to sign up and it doesn’t work

by Gary1324532

Still getting charged

by Aleks0.0

It’s fun, sure, of course it is. However, to charge .29 cents a minute is ridiculous and it’s thievery. That’s about $18 for an hour, seriously? Used up my free 10 minute credits from a referral code and will not be using again.

by Mjschmitt

Yes I totally recommend I had so much fun!!! And it’s pretty cheap! It’s so much fun to ride with family!!!
