User Reviews for NYC Transit: MTA Subway & Bus
New to this but enjoy how useful it is
Nice App. I like how it shows you the times for buses near your house as well as the stations as well… as suppose to being close by to check the time. It benefits if one wants to plan way ahead. I also like that it tells you how much the trip will cost, some tourist probably loose alot of money buying metrocards, because they don't know how much it cost to go and come back- so its nice to have. In my case though i have lived here for years there are express buses that are higher price so its good to know which ones those are.
Good but Interface is poor
This app has a lot of potential. The best thing about it is it's reasonably accurate display of subway arrival times. But there are at least four things about the app that are annoying. 1) Certain multi line subway stops, like W. 4th St., only show the information for the blue lines, not the orange lines. 2). The subway arrival time display for each station often displays at the top of the screen where you can't see it without resuming your screen. 3) the app should remember the zoom state when switching between bus and subway. 4) you should be able to turn on or off bus/subway info in preferences so that the display is cleaner and tailored to ones main use.
Would use again :))
I visited NYC for about three days with my family, and this app definitely saved our lives. Coming from California, we never take the train or bus to go places, so taking the subway would be a huge issue. But this app made traveling so much easier. We knew exactly which train to get on, what stops were being taken, and when we had to get off to either our destination or to transfer to another train. Of course, I can’t give it five stars because sometimes the times are inaccurate, but the times are usually off by a couple minutes. To get an accurate time, the signs in the subway do give better times of when a train is arriving (i.e. 1 minute, 5 minutes, etc.). Also, the service does cut off when the train is in motion, so the app doesn’t work and doesn’t show us our exact location, but once the train stops for the next flow of people, you are able to see exactly which station and street you’re on if the train itself doesn’t provide a sign or you cannot hear the conductor. If I ever go back to NYC, I will definitely be using this app again :)
Tourist-nice to have but didn’t always work
Visiting from PA and wanted to take subway from 44th and Broadway to the 911 memorial. The app worked great on the way there. It was nice that it tells you exactly where to walk from your location to catch which subway and shows you the exact subway route. Coming back it directed us to a different route that ended up with no trains appearing. After asking locals for help they told us that those trains were not running accurately. We wasted our fair on those and went back to one we knew (the one we came on). We were scared, confused and not happy. We wasted some money but all together it was cheaper than a taxi. And it was a good experience to try.
I Like this app
In my opinion the app is user friendly & easily navigated. I tap into the app when leaving a destination - it’s great to get immediate travel info. I even use the app while I’m in transit, this helps because if they’re delays I can see possible so I can connect to another train line to reach my destination. I really enjoy the ‘take me home’ button; I get an immediate estimate on when I’ll arrive home.
Makes travel much easier
After trying a couple other apps, this became the only one I used during a week long trip to NYC. I didn’t find the filter options to do things like, minimize walking, for a few days and there were a couple times I had to change details to get it to display a previous option again. — I understand why, as a new path might be faster now than before, but an option to choose certain trains would be nice. However, everything else was great. I loved that it gave options, showed the wall distances, would let you specify a future time, etc. it made traveling around the city much easier. Big thanks to the creators of this app. — And as a plus, the “free” version displays very few apps, which was a pleasant surprise
Saved tourists!
We just came into town to celebrate a birthday and wouldn’t have been able to get around without this app! It rerouted us when the subways were down for maintenance and gave us multiple options.I wish the app would keep your last searched trip’s information on the home screen instead of opening fresh every time (it got annoying having to constantly re-search our route when I just wanted to double-check the numbers), especially when you’re in a subway station with poor reception, but it was a minor inconvenience.
Life Changer
Absolutely the best NYC subway map!We tried four separate apps and this one proved to be the easiest to read as well as the easiest to follow. It also shows your current train’s progression to the next stop. Which proved helpful one time when I boarded the wrong train. I was able to hop trains at the next stop and save valuable time. There were a couple of times when I noticed another train, that wasn’t listed, was heading the direction we were going, but that could be something beyond my limited experience. This app should be the NYC’s official subway info provider. It puts MY MTA to shame.
Works well for Singular manner of travel
This app works well only if you want to use one manner of travel (subway, bus, etc) only. If your travel requires you to catch a bus to a nearby subway station- you will be stranded in NYC. Also, with multiple bus stops on various corners, this program is terrible at telling you WHERE the bus stop is located! We ended up missing busses numerous times. After the 2nd day, we simply stopped using it and switched to using another program (g**gle to be honest). Great idea for an app, definitely needs some tweaking for those of us not from the city!
Inaccurate
I was excited to use a new app that has an easier navigation layout & no fees. But for over the past month its been inaccurately reporting the train time. I’ve been leaving my home too early or too late (15min in advance) and its been inaccurate. I’ll either have to wait extra or miss my train by a chunk of time; but it especially keeps merging the anticipated catch time to the later scheduled train. Not exactly what I was hoping for during the winter and the pandemic.
