Effective and simple
I don’t know why this app isn’t more popular. It’s simple and sufficient if you already know generally how to get around. You get a quick glimpse on all nearby train options and when the next train is so you can make a snap decision as to how you want to go.
And there’s a tab for you to see if there are train delays or changes - saves time from clicking into the MTA website. It is a little hard to see the message sometimes when it’s super long because all the sentences flow together without any sectioning to separate out the stops that are affected.
And I’m really happy about the addition of the maps. Now I don’t have to use NextStop (my other train app) to check for alternatives.hunter5a_nicknamenottaken
Developer Response
Thanks for the feedback! I definitely agree with you about the long train statuses. That’s next on my list of things to try to improve. The MTA distributes those statuses in a fairly developer-unfriendly way, but other apps parse them to be more readable than my app does. So, it’s doable; I just need to spend the time to do it. Thanks, again!Best MTA App
Simple , accurate and easy to use.

Great app for visitors too!
This is a fantastic app. I'm not a New Yorker, but it came in extremely handy on my recent visit to the Big Apple. Great interface and very intuitive. Now, if the MTA gets its act together and offers real time countdowns for all trains!Neema J.
Brilliant!
Simple, focused on what is by far the most useful information for anyone about to take the subway.
Thank you!s e b a s t i a n
Life saver!
This is a super helpful and well-designed app that saved me from expiring on the hot NYC subway platforms this summer. I now use it every time I take the train. I highly recommend downloading this app!Xtina1066

Best subway app available!
This app is for a true New Yorker. It shows you the closest train stations and the real time arrivals and train status near you. Great if you have a choice between trains and want to know which one is arriving first.Todgnk
Game changer
If you love burgers and you liked WhatSandwich, and you also like taking the NYC subway, you're gonna love WhatTrain!JCKizzle
