Been using Bing Bong – NYC Subway Widget for a couple months now. It’s basically an app that puts real-time subway and bus info right on your home screen. No need to even open another app to check when the next train is coming. Pretty solid if you’re a New Yorker who relies on public transit.
Here’s what you do: there’s a widget that shows the arrival times for stations and stops near you. And it’s got a favorites section too, so you can just see the stops you use most often. Plus you can get service alerts – just tap on a line to see if there are any delays or issues. There’s also a station locator, so you can quickly open a stop in Maps.
Look, if you commute in the city, you’ll probably find this really useful. It’s not perfect – sometimes the arrival times aren’t 100% accurate – but overall it does the job. Worth checking out if you want subway info at a glance.
