Metro-North Train Time Reviews

Not accurate. Out of sync with the real status

todd999

When you are at the station and the sign shows your train is running late that app does not show this. When the time is past your train it disappears from the list. No way to see status. Even though it has not yet reached the station.

On par with entire mta

Please make it easier to search for future schedules.

Missing critical feature.

Why can’t I change the departing time of my favorite trips from “now” to some other date on the same screen. Currently, I have to go back to the homepage, create a brand new trip, add the destinations and pick a time. All that just so I can plan my usual travel at a different time of day. This is a huge inefficiency that is easy to fix. I really hope you correct this inconvenience.

Very Useful App - Tweaks Would be Great

I struggled with major glitches when I upgraded to v3.0.3, but after deleting the app and reinstalling it, it has worked almost flawlessly. It’s a very useful way to get quick info on the trains I care about. One annoyance I hope they can fix is when trains are delayed, say an 8:00 train has an ETA of 8:05, if the schedule is refreshed to get an updated ETA, it works fine until the scheduled arrival time (8:00). If I refresh the list after 8:00, the 8:00 train disappears from the schedule that is shown, even if it hasn’t arrived yet, so I can’t get an updated ETA. Ideally, the app would continue to show a train on the schedule until ~30 secs after it DEPARTS the station (should show “departed” as status). If this minor change is made, the app would be a perfect 5 stars.

Functional but static.

The app is a convenient way to purchase railroad tickets and works well for that. Suggestions: The Train Time section of the app could use real time count down clocks; A real-time ETA for late trains; and real time Service Advisories.

Use to be great

I wish I could give no star’s. The app use to be as good as the MTA BUS TIME app. Both of which operate by GPS, supposedly. The former use to, the latter does and is GREAT. This is nothing more than an electronic schedule to replace paper ones. Guess they don’t want anyone to use it to monitor OTP. Which I really couldn’t care about. All I care about is when it’s going to come in real time. This app doesn’t do that.

Can’t open

I loved this App but since I have upgraded to the iPhone 11 the app won’t stay open

Useless

After the trains depart they are no longer visible on the app so you can’t tell any information about the train you’re on or what time it will stop at another station. I downloaded this app to find out arrival time so I could pick up a friend. Information not available.

Bad Interface

I’m not sure why the train schedules come up in a tiny window on the bottom, while obvious information takes up 4/5 of the screen at the top. It could use some design work. I still use it, it just feels outdated and difficult.

Okay, but could be improved

Apple-squire

This app does its basic job okay - I can search for upcoming trains, both departing and arriving at whatever station I’m interested in. That said, it could be improved by allowing you to see a train that just left, in the event you’re on that train, without having to do another search for same train by looking up trains arriving at your destination. It also could benefit from more up-to-date information about any delays, although I can’t really fault the app for that since it’s usually not just the app but also the boards at the station that don’t always have the current info about delays. Additionally, this app does not fill the screen completely on an iPhone 11 Pro Max, so some cosmetic updates would be great. But, all that having been said, 99% of the time it works just fine for me.
