Response from developer

Shabin The Great, I understand your frustration at not being able to use the app. I would be upset too. I think it's a great app. Upon investigation I found that on iPhones running iOS 18, version 1.4.1 crashes on launch. The reason is that I rewrote the app in native Swift instead of a web view to improve performance across the board. I thought I had tested it thoroughly, but I hadn't tested it on iOS 18. That's on me, and it's something I'll do better moving forward. You pointed out a bug that would otherwise have been invisible to me, and for that I am grateful. I realize now that you are, truly, Shabin The Great. A fix is out in version 1.4.2. I hope updating gets you back on track.

Best dc metro tracking app ever

It’s simple and just works. Major kudos to the developer.

The essential tool for DC transit commuters

The app is an absolute game-changer for navigating the DC area. I love the clean, Metro-themed aesthetic, and it is brilliant how it displays times exactly as they appear on station platforms. The ability to geolocate and instantly show information for the nearest station makes it incredibly useful for someone like me who combines cycling with transit. Being an independent project built with WMATA data, it is a well-deserved five-star tool. If you rely on the Metro, you need this app.
