Here - Subway Arrivals 4+

The app identifies the closest subway stations and tells you the next arrivals for trains in each direction. Genius! You can also add it as a Home Screen Widget and either show the arrivals for the nearest station or a pinned station. The Locked Screen Widget shows the arrivals for the nearest station.

My only wish would be to be able to pin a few stations and then have the Locked Screen Widget show the nearest station out of those pre-selected options. For example, there are 5 subway stations near my home, but the station I use to commute is not the nearest one. The Widget does show me my commuting station once I walk in that direction. But it would be nice to have a way to tell the App to ignore the other stations and show me the one I need when I am home. And the one I use to get back when I am near work, etc.

I never write reviews, but couldn’t help and show my support for this little unknown app. It’s so useful and convenient, instead of running up or down the platform to find the times or opening an app and having to input the destination to check the times.

Sometimes it struggles to update especially if checked between one station after the other in the train, but beyond that STILL 5 stars.

This app gives information that the official MTA app has but does it in a streamlined way. I can open my phone, and open an app and instantly see the station I’m near and walking to and view arrival times. While the info is available on the official MTA app this app is able to deliver that information way quicker which is important for me when determining if I’m going to book it to try and catch a train or not.

The only improvement would be to work on separation of lines at some stations - Court square is three different stations, G, E/M, 7 but the E/M, and 7 are all grouped together because their destinations are all Manhattan and queens. I would prefer to have the 7 separated out.

Happy to have this to use alongside MyMTA
