Timing: Seoul Subway & Bus

The Timing app helps visitors get around Seoul by subway and bus, in plain English, even with a heavy suitcase.

Tap the route map, search a station or a bus stop, and see what is coming next. At stations with public data, also find the elevator, the closest train door, a locker or a restroom.

Pay once. Every feature is included. No subscription, no in-app purchases.

ROUTE MAP

Tap the map, Find station info
The official Seoul Metro route map in English, shown exactly as published. Pinch to zoom, tap a station circle, and open that station: arrivals and the Facilities Guide.

ARRIVALS AND SEARCH

Subway arrivals
Trains are grouped by direction and named after the next station, the same way platform signs say "Toward ...". See "Arriving in 3 min." or "Arriving now", and how many stops away a train is. The list refreshes automatically.

Bus arrivals at your stop
The next two buses for every route at a stop, with minutes and stops away. See low-floor buses, how crowded a bus is, and the last bus of the day. Routes are color-coded: blue, green, yellow, red and gray.

Search by name or number
Type a station or stop name in English or Korean, or the 5-digit number on the bus stop sign. The Korean name is always shown, so you can match signs or show it to people around you.

Favorites
Tap the star to keep the stations and stops you use most.

Address in English
Paste a Korean address from a booking, a map or a message. Get the English road-name address, the lot-number address and the ZIP code. Tap to copy it for a taxi app, a form or your driver.

FACILITIES GUIDE

Details inside the station that matter when you are carrying bags. Shown only at stations where public data exists, mainly Seoul Metro stations. Many stations have no elevator data yet, and the app says so on the station screen.
• Elevators and train doors: where the elevators are, which floors they connect, the nearest exit, whether each one is working right now, and which train door stops closest to the elevator, shown like "Car 4, door 4".
• Lockers: where they are, how many are free now in each size, opening hours and sizes. Fees and payment are handled in the locker's own app.
• Restrooms and nursing rooms: floor, inside or outside the fare gates and nearest exit.
• For travelers: currency exchange, luggage service and convenience stores, shown when the station has them.

SIMPLE AND PRIVATE
• No account and no sign-in.
• Timing does not ask for your location. You find stations and stops by name or number.
• Your favorites stay on your phone.
