Additional features include the ability to favorite routes and home/work stations for quick access, elevator and escalator service alerts, and a VIP subscription providing first and last train times along with guidance on optimal car boarding positions.

User Reviews

Overall sentiment is mixed and leans negative due to ads and map issues. Many reviews favor the old map, calling it clean, easy to use, and preferable to the cluttered new version. The app is praised for providing reliable and prompt subway information when ads aren't disruptive, but this is often overshadowed by pervasive advertising that blocks the map, overlays content, or triggers subscriptions and glitches. Notably, the map itself can be outdated or inaccurate, with changes like train swaps not reflected. Some users feel the project isn't being actively maintained and prefer the older version remains available.

Pros

Old map design is clean and easy to understand; many reviews want to keep it.
Reliable, accurate subway information when ads do not disrupt use.
Some users still rate the app as excellent and generally useful.

Cons

Ads are pervasive and disruptive, with pop-ups, overlays, and no easy way to close them.
The map is outdated or not updated to reflect current changes (e.g., train swaps).
The new map is cluttered and distorts geography, complicating comparisons with Google Maps.
Ad-related issues can render the app unusable (glitches, gray screens, subscription prompts).
Perceived lack of ongoing development; many users want the old version or deem the project abandoned.
