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.

100x better that the MTA app
And keeps getting better. Every crappy thing you hate about the official MTA is not an issue with this app. The app opens to the information YOU want to see; no stupid animation of a train every time you open it, no convoluted menu screen. The map scrolls to where you want to go, not some arbitrary point that it picks - and it shows an overlay of the subway, something that the MTA thinks is unnecessary. Your favorites are displayed in an intelligent way, as are nearby stops. Bottom line: you’re getting what you paid for when you use the MTA app.

Great app!
I used this app during a recent trip to NYC. Because of a leg injury suffered just before our trip, I needed to minimize walking while still enjoying all the city has to offer. This app allowed me to enter my starting point and destination, then gave me choices that included bus, subway, and walking options. So helpful! Easy to use, and was such a help in learning the transit systems. NYC also deserves credit for having bus stops clearly marked, and for maintaining immaculate buses.
