Comments on Subway Now: Live NYC Train Map for Android

★★★★★ my gins · Dec 19, 2025
By far the greatest app for navigating New York City Transit, and it's not even close
★★★★★ Dan Africk · Apr 8, 2026
This app is truly awesome. It has a slight learning curve before you 100% understand all the features, but once you do it it's amazing. You can see the trains moving between stations in real-time, so it really helps with transfers, catching trains, and deciding between options (for example between the express train and the local). Don't let the low download count scare you, this app is legit. It's the best kept secret for navigating the subway system quickly and efficiently.

Description by Sunny Ng Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
Subway Now (formerly The Weekendest) is the ultimate companion app to ride the NYC Subway. Simply open it to see all nearby arrival times in zero taps, and go!

Subway Now is the first and only realtime New York City Subway map app, you can:
- Track live train locations
- Get the most accurate train arrival predictions across nearby stations
- Check live train statuses and delays
- View current subway service pattern on a map, including re-routes and skipped stops
- Track your train's estimated arrival time and connection times with Push Notifications*
- Check connection times before you arrive at your transfer station
- Departure time and service status Widgets

From the Press:
"With one tap, [Subway Now] identifies your location and current travel options... look ahead to transfers. Service Changes are in view as part of the complete picture of possible rides." - PIX11 News

"Several voices on Twitter pointed out that a digital MTA map, arguably superior, already exists. At a transportation conference in Brooklyn last year Sunny Ng unveiled an open-source creation he calls The Weekendest — a riff on the name of the MTA’s previous service-change map, called The Weekender." - Bloomberg CityLab

"To go beyond the MTA service alerts, you need to look at headways, which is the time between trains on a line. I can use [Subway Now] to easily see where the trains are bunching or slowing due to issues and plan accordingly." - VICE Motherboard

Additional Features:
- Our own data-driven service alerts, delay detection, integrated with MTA official alerts
- Save favorite subway stations for easy access
- Customizable Train Arrival alerts, be notified when your train is about to arrive*
- Light mode/dark mode support
- Station accessibility notices, and accessibility station filter
- Optimized for intermittent offline viewing (you know how it is underground)
- No ads!

* Background Train Tracker and Train Arrival Alerts require paid in-app subscription add-on
