I'm usually quite critical of the way apps function but I seem to think this app gets the job done really well. Sometimes I'd miss trains because the times on the timetable is confusing to read but with this app I can see exactly when my train is coming, the number of stops, and when I arrive. I enjoy this app a lot so kudos to you MTA.

..that's about what I expect from the MTA. I'm giving this app 5 stars just to encourage you guys updating more often. Like maybe twice a year instead of once a year. A man paying hundreds of dollars a month for train tickets can dream....
