User Reviews for Metro-North Train Time

Good but with minor bugs that can be easily fixed.

1. The map is very very choppy when zooming in, it is hardly unusable and it is an important feature because without panning is hard to see in what station the train is. The LIRR app map is a lot better in this regard, look at that map and emulate it. 2. Do not delete the schedules for the trains that have departed within a couple of hours from the station you are searching. It is often necessary to look at a train that has departed if someone you are expecting is on that train.3. If your iPhone is running on Zoomed screen mode the text in the app gets cut off and because dysfunctional.

As Poor and Confusing as the MTA Itself

Why can’t the MTA just build a simple app that shows the train times and track numbers? I am sure developing this app employed many people but wow what a waste of talent. This app fails for the following reasons:1. No favorites on the main page. HELLO. This is NYC. People have their trips planned out. Put a button bar there for quick access. 2. You choose a trip and a list of trains/tracks pop up. Lovely! Try tapping on them. What pops up? A map of Westchester. Guess what doesn’t show up? Your train and track. As if anybody cares what Westchester looks like? I know they are trying to show a map of the system and your stops but NYers don’t really need that. It should be a secondary or tertiary tab for interested parties. 3. No ticket integration. This is better than nothing but wow just build a simple app with the info that NYers want: when and where is my train. Leave the pretty art for the MoMA.

Train times inaccurate and missing

I kept thinking Metro North was taking an awfully long time to add late trains after Covid, because the last train listed in the app was 11:35. I complained to a friend, and she said the 1:55 am was actually already there. Sure enough it was listed on the Metro North website, but not on this app even after updating.What good is a train schedule app with the wrong schedule?

Unless trains are on time, it’s not that helpful

It’ll show you the scheduled times of trains. That’s it. No delay notices or time estimate for arrival. Most reliable way to tell is the map that shows where the train is currently at, so you can guess when it’ll actually show based on that. Once the train time expires, like a train scheduled at 9am, 9:01 its bumped off the schedule even if it still hasn’t arrived at station so you don’t get any further info on where or when its arriving. Alerts are rarely updated and give bogus general delay times. A lot of my trains have had service changes to include more stops because they keep running late but that doesn’t show on the app. It would be helpful to know on a delayed or extended train when you are actually going to arrive at your destination.

Out-of-Towner here: App works great

Easy to use helped me figure out what tickets to buy on the MTA eTix app fantastic. Don’t see what everyone is whining about.

Used to be better

Please bring back the feature that shows the ACTUAL arrival time on the right side of the screen for each stop. For some reason that was removed, and now the app only shows the scheduled arrival. Since the majority of app users are checking to see when the train will really arrive (vs just the schedule), this feature is essential. Without it, the app is the same as MyMTA and therefore serves no function.

Old version was better

The new version is confusing and forces you to favorite specific times in trips, when I want the flexibility of finding the nearest times.Plus the layout is too complicated compared to the old version where it was all in one place.

Not 100% reliable

Id say 9/10 times the train times arrival is correct. For a task so simple, its unsettling to have to admit this app isnt entirely reliable especially in a city where every minute counts. To be sitting somewhere and waiting 45 minutes or to have missed a train that wont come until the morning because of an incorrect train schedule is not acceptable. Its not cool. Save yourself the stress, try another app or two as i am doing rn. It is my fifth time waiting for a train coming 40 minutes later. I wont even mention how many times ive missed the last available train to North White Plains.

All stations table view

this list should extend to the full length of the screen. right now each cell has a fixed length and is less wide than screen

Doesn’t load, even after rebooting

Well, there’s my first day at work getting in late because this app doesn’t load for over an hour. Of course, the train station monitor all are down, and there’s nobody at the Croton-Harmon, NY station booth to help answer any questions. Nobody knows where they are suppose to get on! Thanks MNR!!!!
