Ever since the wmata site updated to make it take multiple clicks to get to a station and also removed train lengths, I was getting so frustrated not being able to see the status as I walked in. This brings that back, and also defaults to your nearest station, which makes total sense since I only check it when I’m walking to/waiting in a station. I’ve already recommended it to several people!

For years, I have lamented that the dc metro does not have a single app that does it all — provide metro times in a simple interface that doesn’t require 5 minutes of scrolling through stations or clicking through ads. Enter DC Metro ETA. It’s a beautiful, clean interface that uses the metro map that we all know and love. No scrolling to find stations, no glitchiness, no ads. Just pure convenience. This is incredible!!

As a daily commuter, this app is exactly what I need! A quick way to know when my next train is coming, so I know if I have to hurry up or not. It’s uncomplicated, no searching for lines or stops, which is so nice when you just want quick and easy information. I love that it’s on the metro map too, very nice touch!

I just downloaded/installed and I like it. It’s a no-nonsense app that does the job telling you when your next train will be there with accurate clear ETA mirroring the displays at stations. There’s talk about doing this for buses too but that best goes with its own app. Metro trains and the buses are different animals.
