Bird Mobile App Backend (Unofficial)

The undocumented mobile-app backend that powers the Bird iOS and Android consumer apps. Hosts include api.birdapp.com, api-auth.prod.birdapp.com, and api-bird.prod.birdapp.com. The surface is email + magic-link authentication, JWT access / refresh tokens (24-hour TTL), and endpoints for nearby vehicles, configuration, and ride lifecycle. The surface is reverse-engineered and documented in the community-maintained WoBike project but is NOT a sanctioned third-party API — there is no developer portal, no rate-limit documentation, no terms of service for programmatic use, and access can change without notice. Listed here for completeness and transparency, not as a recommended integration target.
