Indispensable For New Yorkers & Tourists Alike
I’m a lifelong NYC resident and Exit Strategy is probably my most used and valued iPhone app of all. At subway stops with just one exit, it can save you time by identifying which subway car to be in so you’re closest to the exit when you reach that station. But where the app really shines is in the many stations that have two or more exits leading you to different places. Choosing the wrong one can waste a lot of time walking to where you actually need to be. Transferring between subway lines is also so much easier with Exit Strategy to guide where you need to be, which is not always readily apparent at the station. Even though I’ve lived in NYC all my life, his app has still saved me so much time over the years by giving me the info I need to be maximally efficient in my use of the subways. Plus the interface is completely intuitive and speedy to use. Also, if you’re coming into town as a tourist with the intention of riding the subways, I can’t recommend it any more highly. It will save you from many conversations asking for directions to take the best way out of a subway station.

Must Have for Every New Yorker
This app is perfect for it’s simplicity, elegance, and no nonsense purpose. New Yorkers value their time; so many euphemisms exist about the relationship between NYC and time. This app not just honors those sentiments, it encourages and helps make the most of one’s time.
Native New Yorkers know these exit locations by heart. And despite being a NYC resident for nearly 25 years, I have used this app for 17 of them to get place to place in the shortest time possible. In all that saved time, I haven’t come across a remotely comparable way to efficiently navigate one of the longest running mass-transit systems in the world.
It’s a must have for anyone living or visiting the greatest city in the world - where it never sleeps, a minute is a lifetime, and making it there means unlimited success.

Please update :)
Thanks the best app that I still use many days! But please add the new changes- the F and M lines have been switched and this needs to be updated. Thanks so much!
Faulty subway info
This used to be bulletproof, but today in one Manhattan trip, there were TWO connections that were wrong. One showed a non-existent 7 line connection on the RW lines. And another was missing a connection.
This app can be handy, but don’t rely on it if in a hurry.

As a New Yorker for 20 years this is one of my favorite apps. I’ve had this app for almost as long as I’ve been here. I know where to stand on the tracks where exits are and it’s been reliable since the day I downloaded it. I didn’t even realize that the app has continued to be updated. Thanks!
