IPhone app for NYC transportation?
I'm going to NYC soon and I wonder if there's an iPhone app that's able to tell me what to do (I mean buses or metro or both) having only my location and my destination.
My friend, you can go to the website of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, which is the transit agency in charge of the city's subway, bus and commuter rail network, and download a free map of the city subway system to your phone. Its free.
I'm a long time New Yorker and I also have an iPhone.
I use 2 apps pretty regularly.
Hopstop will give you step by step directions as to the best route to take by any mode of transit in the city. It is always updated about service changes.
Also I use itrans NYC which is just an app with a subway map, but it includes up to date service alerts.
Remember though, most of the subway system does not have internet access yet.
- What are my options if my laptop, iPhone or money gets stolen on the subway/NYC? I'm in college and I can't afford to get anything stolen. I have pepper spray as well. If something does happen, what should I do?
- Stores with great photo printing services? In nyc? So I got some photo prints from the kodak machine at Target and the quality completely sucks! Are there any stores you guys would recommend to get photo prints? My photos are taken with my iphone 5c which is where the photos are located.
- NYC omny cards with no smart phone or credit card, what to do? They say metro cards won't be phased out for 3 years. I know someone that has an iPhone for work, but refuses to use it. Just has all calls forwarded to his personal phone. He will not use it for any apps, or even Uber when taking business trips (its set up with his business credit card). he also refuses to use credit cards except in extreme circumstances. will he have to join the 21st century, or will there be another way to use something like a metrocard?
- Is there an app for iPhone to rearrange my app icons anywhere I want? I want to know if there's a free app that allows me to move my apps on my home screen where ever I want?
