Live track your train

It not light speed accurate, specially underground, its like a minute delay sometimes but it does let you know where the trains are. And you can see if its moving or not. Perfect for when you are on a hurry, hope they add Busses one days, other than that the app is intense on hardware so older phones struggle and drain more battery, which makes sense, an option to only track a single line would be helpful for people with the same route all the time, so its easier for people who struggle with using the transit, my mother struggles using the app as its too much input for her

Thank you, yes, we will add buses in future and also update the app, we have widget on the screen ☺️🙏

Very nice

As someone who isn’t from New York, this app has honestly been a lifesaver. After being used to the metro systems in Moscow and Saint Petersburg, navigating the New York subway felt pretty overwhelming at first. But with this app, getting around NYC became easy and stress-free.

The interface is clear, routes are simple to understand, and it gives you the confidence to move around the city without constantly worrying about getting lost or taking the wrong train. It completely changed my experience with the New York subway system.

An absolutely essential app for anyone visiting or newly living in New York. Highly recommended.

Thank you so much 🗽

Abuses battery life and persistent location tracking

Even with "only while using" location permission, and background refresh turned off, this app continues to persist in the background, tracking location and using up battery life. Not good. Otherwise, the app is good and useful. Uninstalling though.

Finally an app which just tells me what I need to know

The entire concept of this app is brilliant. Instead of trying to be a route planner it just tells me what trains are coming. As a regular rider on my daily routes I don’t need to know a novel way to get home, I just need to know whether to get on the Local or wait for an Express.

The new Widget feature is even better. It tells me when the trains are coming at the nearest station without me even needing to open the app!

One request: when set to show both directions of trains there’s nothing to show which are uptown and which are downtown. I’d actually also like an even bigger widget so as to see more than 2 trains in each direction at the stations with lots of lines.

Update: thanks for the response. What I just realized is I can add a larger widget (which solves my problem) but the menu item to resize existing widgets is greyed out for some reason so I’d wrongly assumed no larger widget existed

Response from developer

You can add a large widget showing the four closest trains for each direction. You can also long-press the "Edit Widget" button to select just one direction and place two widgets on the screen. Thank you so much for your feedback 🎉

That’s good map

Great map. Thanks to the developers for the ease of use and good optimisation ❤️
