Shanghai shared bikes: locate, scan and follow the live app flow
Unlocking is only the start—observe the current parking rules.
Shanghai’s municipal portal lists Hellobike, Meituan Bike and Qingju Bike as bike-sharing platforms. It says travelers can locate nearby bikes in the relevant app or mini-program, or scan a bike’s QR code and follow the on-screen unlock flow. Account eligibility, payment and parking are live conditions.
A clear next step
- Choose a platform that appears in your app store or account.
- Use its map or scan a visible bike QR code to begin the current unlock flow.
- Follow the app’s live parking and end-trip instructions.
