Searching for your destination will bring up a list of the best ways to get there, along with approximate prices for each (especially useful for Uber and Lyft). The most comprehensive of the third-party apps, Citymapper doesn’t just show you subway and bus information-there are also details for non-MTA commuter rail lines (PATH, NJ Transit), ride-hailing apps, Citi Bike, NYC Ferry, and even Car2Go. So which of these apps are worth your time (and storage space?) We’ve rounded up six of the best ones below. (See: where to board a train so you’re closest to the exit at your destination.)
Many replicate services found in the MyMTA app, such as where trains and buses are in real time, or which lines are affected by delays.īut others provide a more comprehensive overview of the transit landscape (such as including nearby bike share stations), and or provide necessary information you won’t find in the MTA app. Since the MTA was relatively late to the subway app game, plenty of competitors have launched their own apps that promise to make commuters’ lives a little easier-and have already built devoted followings. The MTA finally entered the 21st century when, earlier this year, it unveiled a souped-up new app that puts information about its various commuting methods-subways, buses, and commuter rail lines-along with subway delays and other issues right at your fingertips.
