Doesn’t work on subway platform
Martin Kebab
Anyone know why it doesn’t work on below ground subway platform when connected to Wi-Fi I have AT&T Is that why?
Helpful and Accurate

Usually reflects the same times as station countdown clocks; helpful for planning. Also tells you delays and planned work on each line. This app would be even better if it had a function to pin stations for quick and easy access.
Save yourself the frustration DO NOT download

So far this app provides info about 10% of the time. And in the past week, it has had “no information available .” Why the MTA would encourage riders to use an app that is even less functional than the subway system itself, is a mystery.
Bad real time data management

So far the timings do not seem very accurate when they even come up. Most of the time I get a data error.
Great! When it works...

Subway Time app is more reliable than other apps I have used, however, if I see”Mo date available at this time. Try again later” I’m going to delete it. Get it together MTA!
Not all trains included.

This would be a FABULOUS app if it included all of the trains. I take the A train, and that is not listed. There were a few others as well, but the A train was glaring.
Simple design, Accurate time
Close, crash.
As a daily commuter of the NYC Subway, I always use this app daily to find out when my next train is coming and what train I should take. I’ve even seen it adjust to service changes. The times are EXACT, down to the minute. Awesome app, I’d highly recommend it to anyone commuting in NYC. Just a couple of things that could make this app even better: 1) The ability to add a favorite or frequently used station. Many people have already said that they wanted this, as it would make looking for the times at my home and work stops that bit faster to see. 2) Watch our for certain bugs, e.g. the (Q) and 42nd Street. For some odd reason, it displays 49th Street times when you tap it, instead of Times Square. For anyone else with this issue, you can easily just tap the (N) (R) or (W) lines and click 42nd Street there. Overall, the app functions near-perfectly, and is very simple to use.
Subpar

As an app that gives you a feed with the station times, it basically works. Most of the time anyway. However, the user is not put first. There’s no way to search for stations. No way to see which stations are close to you via geolocation. No way to favorite stations. These are basic features that some MTA apps have or had. But in this one, in typical MTA fashion, the user better like it, because there isn’t any alternative.
