## What is Rushline?

Rushline shows every way across NYC, live, before you leave your door: subway, bus, bike, PATH and commuter rail. Widgets on your Home Screen, a Live Activity on your Lock Screen, one app behind it all.

WIDGETS, ALL FREE
- 9 line color widgets, one per trunk. Each follows you to the closest station on that trunk.
- Nearest Stop, any line
- 4 PATH widgets
- Bikes Nearby: the two closest stations, classic and e-bike counts, walking distance
- Tap refresh once and every widget you have placed reloads

HOW LIVE IS LIVE
iOS reloads widgets about every 15 minutes. Between reloads, the minutes count down on their own. Tap to refresh for fresh data at once. Screens inside the app refresh every 30 seconds. The Live Activity ticks by the second.

LOCK SCREEN AND DYNAMIC ISLAND
Pin a train and watch it count down by the second, with the Rush Streak moving along. A Control Center and Lock Screen control opens Rushline in one tap.

ONE LIST FOR HOME
Starred stops as live cards, Nearby stops, a grid of every line (with PATH and SIR), and service alerts in one place. Collapse Starred or Nearby to keep it short.

BUS
386 routes and 13,477 stops, stored on your phone. Live arrivals at any stop.

RAIL
Metro-North and LIRR departures with track numbers.

PATH
Live boards for all 13 stations.

OFFLINE MAPS
Subway map and Manhattan bus map, bundled in the app. They work when the tunnel eats your signal.

WALKING TIMES
See if you can make the next one.
