Want to look at another train line? Full screen lingerie!
I’m not a prude but I don’t need either of these vices on my train app to look at how long until the next train is.
Also wished they returned the outage tab and not listi g them on each train only.

Ridiculous
Ad-Supported? For a Service I Already Pay For?
One star, and that’s generous. This is the app for a PUBLIC transit system I already pay for — through my fare and my tax dollars — and somehow that wasn’t enough for you. You looked at riders standing on a platform, just trying to find out when the next train comes, and you saw ad inventory. That’s it. That’s what we are to you now: eyeballs to be sold.
Checking a train time is not a premium feature. It is the entire reason this app exists. Walling it behind an ad is like a library charging you to open a book you already bought. WMATA didn’t run out of money and get creative — WMATA sold out. You took a service the public funds and rented it back to us with commercials, then had the nerve to call it an app.
Nobody opens a transit app to get marketed to. We open it because we’re late, it’s cold, and we need to know if we sprint or wait. And you decided that moment — that exact moment of need — was the perfect time to make a buck off us. Shameless.
Fix it or make the ads optional. Until then I’ll use anything else, and so should everyone reading this.
