If you live in one of Citymapper’s supported metro areas, it is a must-have transit app.

 

There is no transit app as full-featured, powerful, and elegant as Citymapper. It pulls data from a bunch of transit agencies and creates a cohesive, unified, clear picture of how to get around the city. Know when that next train is coming. Figure out exactly how much it will cost to get you from point A to point B. Know exactly what stop to get off at, and even get a notification to remind you as you approach it.

 

Citymapper combines busses, subways, trains, and even bike and scooter rental services. It’s a one-stop, all-inclusive city transit wonder app. However, it only works in about two dozen cities. If you live in (or will be visiting) Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco, Seattle, Chicago, or one of about 20 other major metros around the world, it’s an absolute life-saver. If not, there’s simply no point to it.
