I have another app but this one hands down is the best one. This even has routes to orly airport. Very easy to use app. Thanks heaps. ### 4/5 — Need to update end points *2013-06-12, version 3.0* Useful last week. Good routing options. We had some difficulty because the direction (end point) in this app sometimes different than the metro/train signage. Eg, the north end of line 12. Is it Porte de la Chapelle or Front Populaire (new station?)? Saw both. Resolved by checking the map in the station. See ratp.fr for the updated map. ### 5/5 — Mr Kanda *2013-05-13* Very useful app and easy to use. I've been using this app for ages each time I travel to Paris and never got lost. It's wonderful !!!!!!!! ### 5/5 — Great help! *2013-03-13, version 3.0* This is really well done! ### 5/5 — Merci! *2013-02-04, version 3.0* Just found this for our coming trip to Paris & it looks like it will really reduce our stress level in trying to figure out how to get around. Super! ### 5/5 — Paris Metro *2013-01-25, version 3.0* By far, the best Paris Metro app I've seen. ### 5/5 — couldn't live without it *2013-01-14, version 3.0* the best Paris metro app of all You'll never need a metro map again or look up at the guides inside the car. Simply the best! ### 5/5 — Perfect! *2013-01-11* Works just as advertised. Easy to use. Works perfectly offline therefore incredibly useful all around Paris. Love the option to search different ways, so you can use the easiest method according to the situation at hand (depending if you know name of metro station versus name of attraction etc). ### 5/5 — Concise *2012-11-18* A very underrated app - cant believe I'm the only review Concise visual simplicity and offline ### 4/5 — Great app. Needs a fix *2012-10-30, version 2.0* I'm studying abroad in Paris. This app helps me get around Paris like a pro. the only thing is that they need to update the app. It keeps crashing. ### 5/5 — Perfect solution *2012-10-28, version 2.0* Paris has no free WiFi so this app was invaluable. It would be nice if it overlaid the metro onto the major streets but otherwise excellent app. Clear, concise and simple to use. Great job! ### 5/5 — Easy to use and ride *2012-10-18* Used this app for a week and loved it. Made riding the metro easy. All this info is available at the entrance to the stations, but why look like a lost tourist when you can look it up ahead of time and check it with a push of a button. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work anymore on Apple Air 2 *2019-10-20* Does not work on Apple Air 2. Why not? ### 1/5 — Very basic *2013-01-24, version 3.0* Does not show train timings or ticket price. Only has map with from/to. ### 1/5 — App Ne fonctionne pas *2012-11-16* Dommage, mais l'application plante sur la destination lors de la recherche d'un trajet. En l'état, parfaitement inutile et inutilisable !!! ### 2/5 — Frustrating *2014-02-13* The app doesn't include all stations. So not always helpful if Couchsurfing or going to a less well known place. Also would be great if the map looked like the official. ### 2/5 — DISAPPOINTED *2013-03-16, version 3.0* Don't buy this app – there are better ones on the market. This doesn't give an estimated time For the trip and it doesn't show it on the map. It's only a buck and still I want my money back! The euro converter is nice and so fast it makes me wonder if the exchange rate is up-to-date ### 2/5 — App crashed first day in Paris *2012-08-08* This app started out working great on my ipad but halfway through our first day in Paris it crashed every time we would try to get directions between two stations (the most useful feature). That pretty much left it as nothing more than a map of the Metro. Even then it would crash periodically. Not recommended. ### 2/5 — Under performing *2012-03-23, version 2.0* This is only useful of traveling in Zones 1-3. In Zones 4-6 it is SOL. Why the developer didn't finish is frustrating. Also the guide to Paris sites only has 10 sites listed, there are many more. ### 3/5 — Bien mais... *2012-09-27* Une application très belle et pratique puisqu'elle peut s'utiliser hors ligne mais ou sont les autres lignes de métro après la ligne 13 ? Merci de corriger dans une MAJ ### 4/5 — Pretty good *2016-08-26, version 3.2.2* But needs an update; it's still made for the old iPhone. Not for yes bigger screens (6/6s) I can only imagine the 6s plus... ### 4/5 — Big detected *2013-06-28, version 3.0* Hey guys, I tried to get from Charles de Gaulle-Etoile to Bastille. It is giving me the right line, but wrong direction. It is telling me to go towards La Defense. This is the opposite end. Otherwise a great app. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Avis *2021-04-09* Très bonne orientation ### 5/5 — Flawless *2018-10-15, version 3.2.5* I have used this app on a few trips to Paris and now I cannot imagine going back without it! ### 5/5 — Excellent routing *2018-09-11* Know the site you want to visit, note the Metro next to it, then post the metro location you are near. The app will show you what line, based on end location, and where to get off. Easy as, 1, 2, 3. ### 5/5 — The metro puzzle *2017-12-20* The “Paris by metro” app makes the puzzling metro easy to understand. ### 5/5 — The best *2017-12-05* This is the easiest app to use for the Paris Metro! Love it! ### 5/5 — Absolutely amazing! *2014-09-16* It is definitely a must for travel in Paris! It not only gives you metro info but also in which direction to take the metro. It was a big help to me while traveling. ### 5/5 — Super helpful *2014-05-11, version 3.1* I used this app every day while in Paris. The train information was very helpful and made our navigating Paris easy. I used it on my iPad. ### 5/5 — Great app *2013-09-28* I just returned from Paris. I used this app to go all around the city on the Metro. It simplified the travel. The direction of travel can be confusing since it is determined by the last stop on the metro. This app was very useful. ### 5/5 — Paris Metro App *2013-07-24* What a fantastic app. I'm new to Paris and I'm able to navigate my way around the city with ease. ### 5/5 — Awesome App! *2013-06-29* I used this for everywhere I wanted to go in Paris on a couple trips there, even for trips out of the city. It was so easy and helpful! I only think it needs a bit of an update since I believe some metro lines have added some stops at the end of the line which changes the name of the direction you must head towards. But as long as you pay attention to the diagram in the metro station, there is no problem highly recommended! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
