Description

NYC Mate is the ultimate NYC companion. It has every neighborhood map, bus maps for all boroughs and of course... THE OFFICIAL SUBWAY MAP WITH TRAIN TIMES from GTFS.

Maps included in NYC Mate are:

NYC Subway
Manhattan Bus Map
Queens Bus Map
Brooklyn Bus Map
Bronx Bus Map
Staten Island Bus Map
Metro North Railroad Map
Long Island Railroad (LIRR) Map
All neighborhood maps (note: you must download these on an as-needed basis, but once you have it, you'll always have it)

You will also find:

subway service alerts
routing (bookmarking and most recently searched)
customizable tab bar
street map views for the subway

You can use the application to find different routes. You can also bookmark those routes so that you can look them up later with a touch of a button. Subway timetables are displayed under each stop. You can also view all the stops in a certain line by scrolling through them. The Metro North Railroad also includes daily timetables. And time tables will be coming to the LIRR, so please be patient!

IT'S ALWAYS FREE....

The goal is to make public information public again.

The core application comes with the NYC Subway Map (the new one) and it's 100% hot-touchable. All the other content is downloaded on an as-needed basis.

If you are having any issues with the app, i.e. crashes etc., please email support@nycmate.com and provide as much info as possible!

"The easiest way to get from point a to point b in NYC"....seeded user.

NYCMate includes the crowd sourcing system NextTrain, which provides realtime train arrival information on all NYC subway lines. NextTrain is an innovative technical product and proud to be a NYC homegrown technical solution. NextTrain uses anonymous and passive reporting, so their is nothing for you the user to do. Just enjoy finally knowing when the train will arrive. But only if enough people enable NextTrain, so visit the information button in the app and enable today.

While we are not monitoring GPS location apple does require the following disclaimer for any potential use of background location data:
"Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life."

We use BaseStationID not GPS to determine reporting, so battery life is not effected and all information remains anonymous.

Please enjoy and checkout out other products and services from Densebrain, Inc

Customer Reviews

Used to be good (1 star)
This was the best app until out of nowhere the train times stopped showing up. Please fix it!

Bring my app back!! (1 star)
This was my very favorite app, and I used it every day. Then Metro North maps broke, and simply don't display any times all of a sudden.
I wrote to support a couple of weeks ago, and uninstalled/clean installed the app, but nothing worked. And I got ZERO response, by the way.
I'm deleting it now for good, sadly. Really loved it, but I need train times on MN! I don't need subway or outer borough stuff at all because I know the Man

No Metro-North maps (3 stars)
If the MN maps would work properly this would be a 5-star rating. I used to use this app all of the time, now I only use it occasionally because of that.
