> Ook de officiële VanMoof-app, waarmee eigenaren hun fiets van het slot kunnen halen, is niet voor alle klanten bereikbaar.¹

(The official VanMoof app, which bicycle owners use to unlock their bicycle, is not available to all customers either.)

Yet another reminder that you'll never actually own something which depends on an app or the company behind it existing. For context: VanMoof bicycles are pretty much on the premium side of the spectrum.
