Rushline: NYC Transit
NYC subway, bus, bike & PATH
Only for iPhone
Free · In‑App Purchases
iPhone
Never caught off guard. Live subway, bus, bike, PATH and rail on your Home Screen, now with alert dots on your widgets. Transit data is always free.
Rushline shows every way across NYC, live, before you leave your door: subway, bus, bike, PATH and commuter rail. Widgets on your Home Screen, a Live Activity on your Lock Screen, one app behind it all.
WIDGETS, ALL FREE
- 9 line color widgets, one per trunk. Each follows you to the closest station on that trunk.
- Nearest Stop, any line
- 4 PATH widgets
- Bikes Nearby: the two closest stations, classic and e-bike counts, walking distance
- A caution dot on a line's bullet when that line has a service alert right now (medium and large subway widgets)
- Tap refresh once and every widget you have placed reloads. Outside the city, or no station nearby? Tap Retry and it checks your location again.
HOW LIVE IS LIVE
iOS reloads widgets about every 15 minutes. Between reloads, the minutes count down on their own. Tap to refresh for fresh data at once. A small pill shows how old the times are: amber after 15 minutes, and the times fade after 30. Screens inside the app refresh every 30 seconds. The Live Activity ticks by the second.
LOCK SCREEN AND DYNAMIC ISLAND
Pin a train and watch it count down by the second, with the Rush Streak moving along. A Control Center and Lock Screen control opens Rushline in one tap.
ONE LIST FOR HOME
Starred stops as live cards, Nearby stops, a grid of every line (with PATH and SIR), and service alerts in one place. Collapse Starred or Nearby to keep it short.
SERVICE ALERTS
Each alert is a card: the lines it affects, what is happening, when it runs and why. Long ones fold under Show details. The same card shows on line and station screens.
BUS
386 routes and 13,477 stops, stored on your phone. Live arrivals at any stop.
RAIL
Metro-North and LIRR departures with track numbers.
PATH
Live boards for all 13 stations. If PATH data cannot load, you see the last known times and when they were updated.
OFFLINE MAPS
Subway map and Manhattan bus map, bundled in the app. They work when the tunnel eats your signal.
WALKING TIMES

THEMES, LOOKS ONLY

Rushline uses real-time MTA data. Built by 25C LLC, an independent studio. Not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, the Port Authority, or any other transit agency. Requires iOS 18 or later.
New: Curbside and Meadow widget themes, in a $2.99 City Pack with Bodega. Your widgets now flag service alerts, too.
WHAT'S NEW
- City Pack: Bodega, Curbside and Meadow for $2.99. Curbside is a golden-hour street corner with a yellow cab. Meadow is a picnic on a sunny lawn. Each theme is also $1.29 on its own, and the City Pack comes first in the theme gallery
- Alert dots: when a line has a service alert in effect right now, its bullet on your medium or large widget gets a small caution dot
- Service Alerts, redone: each alert is a card with the lines it affects, what is happening, when it runs and why. Long ones fold under Show details. Staten Island Railway alerts now show on the SIR screen
- Retry on empty widgets: "Outside the city", "Locating" and "No station nearby" now have a retry button, so you can fix them without opening the app
CALMER WIDGETS
- A small pill shows how old your times are. It turns amber after 15 minutes, and the times fade after 30. It shows a Wi-Fi-off symbol when your phone is offline
- No more status lines under the rows, so theme art stays whole
FIXES
- PATH: when PATH data cannot load, the station screen shows the last known times and when they were updated, not an error
- Rail: a starred trip you flipped no longer shows the same station twice
Crash reports are new and anonymous: no name, location or ID. No ads. No analytics. No accounts.
