Full description

Turnstile is the fastest way to check real-time NYC subway arrivals. Widgets put your stops and lines on your home screen. Follow any train and watch it count down to your stop. Delays, reroutes, and alerts catered to the lines you ride. No accounts. No ads. No clutter. Built for New Yorkers who know where they're going, and ride the subway every day. WIDGETS - Stop: the next trains at any stop, in one direction. Pick a stop, or let it follow your first favorite. - Subway: which lines have service changes. Pick up to 8 lines, or let it follow your favorites. - They refresh the moment you leave the app or change a favorite. FOLLOW A TRAIN - Pin any MTA train as a mini player that stays on every screen - Set your destination stop to get a live countdown - On Android 16, the countdown lives in your notification shade too, updated even with the app closed - See delay trends: is your train falling further behind or catching up? REAL-TIME ARRIVALS, DONE RIGHT - Every NYC subway station, every MTA route, refreshed every 15 seconds while the app is open - Arrival times split by direction with per-stop labels (no guessing which platform) - Route-based service alerts: badges and banners for YOUR lines, not every line in the system - Color-coded alerts: delays, suspensions, notices NEARBY STOPS - See the 5 closest subway stations with live arrivals based on your location - Favorited stops bubble to the top so your regular stop isn't buried - Drag to reorder favorites WORKS UNDERGROUND - Cached arrivals and trip data persist to disk. No loading screen between stations. - Official MTA subway maps available offline, no signal required - Auto-refresh resumes the moment connectivity returns DESIGNED FOR NEW YORK CITY - Light, dark, or system appearance - Haptic feedback where it matters (toggle-able) - ADA accessibility indicators across every route map - No ads. No tracking. Just your subway times. SEARCH THAT ACTUALLY WORKS - Find any of 472 NYC subway stations by name, even with typos or abbreviations - "parkway" finds "Pkwy", "42nd" matches "42 St", "sor" still finds "Spring St" - Recent searches saved for quick access Built by a New Yorker who got tired of apps that do too much. Turnstile does one thing: it tells you when your train is coming (and it tells you it really fast).

What's new

Turnstile has been rebuilt from the ground up. - Widgets: next trains at a stop, and which lines have service changes - Follow a Train: live countdown on every screen. On Android 16, in your notifications too. - Delay trends, reroutes, and skipped stops for every train - Service alerts for the lines you ride - Works underground between stations with improved caching capabilities - Search that handles typos - Your favorites and theme carry over from the old version Thanks for sticking around.
