Ratings and reviews

I use the subway often. This app has let's me glance at the arrival times from both sides. It lets me make quick decisions of should I stay or do a transfer switch. It lets me verify if trains are running at a certain station during an odd hour, like 1030pm (I'm looking at you R train). Things that could be better. Sometimes the loading of data appears at negative times. And pull to refresh or tap way and tap back to refresh isn't always the best. Great lightweight app.

Excellent and can be even better! It's super fast to see the train arrival times. I would want an ad-free, premium version. It's a stretch, but maybe there can be an indicator or animation when the user taps on a station dot, affirming the dot was touched. This is a lightweight and very informative app for New Yorkers!

Unironically the best subway map for NYC as of right now. All it does is tell the next train at the stop you're at, which 99% of the time is all you need. Perfect as a companion app, please don't make it an "all-in-one". Only request is for the NYC map to update to nighttime when significanct
