NYC Transit: MTA Tracker

Has replaced the other apps that I use. No way it’s going to get as popular as the other apps but hopefully someone is able to find it better due to this review!

Clean, easy to understand. Combo of nearby trains + departure times countdown is everything I ever wanted bar none but would’ve never known it without this app. No more platform anxiety.

ad-free, good interface, does not collect your data… MUCH more coherent and user-friendly than the MTA app. for instant arrival times, just tap ‘start live activity’ on the train at the stop and direction desired, and it will show you on your lock screen— in real time— how long until the next trains are coming.
