iPhone
The fastest way to check NYC subway arrivals. Get instant info on your commute when you're ready to walk out the door.
Just long-press the Commutely icon on your home screen. In 2 seconds, you'll know exactly when your trains arrive—so you can decide whether to run or take your time.
WHY COMMUTELY?
In NYC, every second counts. Why futz with opening transit apps, inputting station info, or scrolling around to get your train info? You just want to know one thing: Are you going to make it on time?
Commutely eliminates your commuting information friction (but, sadly, not your commute friction). Configure your trains once, then access real-time arrivals with a single long-press. No unlocking. No navigating. Just instant information.
KEY FEATURES
• Quick Actions — Long-press the app icon to get train times for your saved commutes instantly.

• Live Activities & Dynamic Island — See arrivals on your Lock Screen with a line that fill as the trains approach.

PRIVACY-FIRST
Commutely works completely anonymously. No account required. No ads. Your station preferences stay on your device.
FREE!
All core features are free. An optional tip jar lets you support development if you find the app useful—but it's never required and never interrupts your workflow.
BUILT FOR NYC COMMUTERS
If you take the same trains from the same stations every day, Commutely was made for you. It's not a route planner or a tourist guide—it's a precision tool for daily riders who value speed over features.
Download now. Long-press tomorrow morning. Never sprint for a train that's 10 minutes away again.
