Needs updating

I like the simplicity of this app, and the clean interface. The design is very well-done. Unfortunately, nobody has updated this app in two years. For example, the 7 Line extension to 34th Street and 11th Avenue opened to the public in May 2015. But the map still shows the 7 as ending at Times Square and 42nd Street. So unfortunate. Hello, CityTransit? Anybody there?
Out of date, DONT buy!

This last update to this app is over a year old. I loved it the first 2 years that I used it, but changes in MTA and a lack of updating have caused it to be an unreliable source for getting you around town. Plus, it doesn't offer any information about buses in any other borough other than Manhattan (which coincidentally is easy to navigate by bus without a map because it's just a grid). Until they begin to update regularly, just use google maps, which will even give you scheduled subway and bus times.
The worst

Got the app. Found it to be useless and out of date. That app should be in real time as there are construction closures like the E train. Main subway train. Closed for construction. Stood there like a jerk for a while. Not worth money
Unreliable

It pains me to write this review because the developers are friends of my friends but half the time this app does NOT provide current service advisories. Like tonight! It says the E train is good to go. But it's not! The 53rd Street Madison Station is CLOSED! Now I'm in a taxi extremely annoyed.
no updates in over a year?

I used to love this app and rely on it regularly, but the maps are now two years out of date (bus maps from 2010, when they've massively changed bus routes between then and now?), and it doesn't provide current service advisories. Without an update, I'm afraid this is less than useless. And to still be charging for something that is this far out of date and quite frankly, the opposite of useful, is unconscionable.
Out of date

This map is severely outdated and will get you lost. I used it to navigate an unfamiliar route and it was a disaster. The company has made corrections.
Useless

This app used to be great but neglect from the developer had rendered it useless. Outdated maps will only get you lost. Do not buy!! Especially if you're a tourist!
Really bad now!
Feeling Raped
This app used to be good. But the last update rendered it useless! Why did you have to mess with it ? Color coding is confusing now (does not match the subway line color coding); cannot magnify beyond a certain limit making it unviewabe on an iphone screen; nasty and confusing new look ....... I could go on. Just awful awful update.
Old Maps, No retina.
Squuiid
Maps are old and outdated and the app looks terrible on the new iPad. Please fix!
