Wonderful app , easy to use
Awesome app. Would be great if you allowed us to add notes to our favorite trains. Stored server side and viewable to the developer. Might be beneficial to see customers notes about specific trains. And beneficial for customers to remember specifics about a certain train.
works well
This is the first MTA app that I've ever liked. It's colorful, easy to use, pretty quick, and the information seems to be in the right places. Hope this team can rework some other wonky apps that the MTA has put out.
This app is very accurate! It shows when the next train arrives. An absolute must download for people who wants to travel! Highly recommended!
Great and efficient app.
Best thing since slice bread!!
The app is pretty good, a little inconsistent, but very good. The service sucks though
Very accurate
The app is pretty accurate with timing. However, sometimes the times displayed glitch and show the opposite direction. For example, the New Hyde Park station going to Penn Station sometimes shows the time for Penn Station to New Hyde Park. It's easily fixed by refreshing, but sometimes it doesn't and I need to restart the app. Otherwise, a good app.
