  • I've been beta testing the MTA's new app, "MTA". This app is set to replace the MyMTA app, as the primary app riders use for navigating the New York City Transit System. In this video, we take a look into the app and see if it actually is an improvement over the dreadful MyMTA App.

    Looks like this app has the good bones it needs to be a great app. I do like a lot that they're considering regional transit services as well as micromobility. I'm paying most attention to how - and if - they handle fare payment and management with OMNY. The "MNR/LIRR Ticketing" bullet point doesn't give me a ton of confidence that they're moving in that direction.

    My only issue with the app is how much harder it is to just check when a train arrives at a station. MyMTA made it pretty easy and just a few clicks and scrolling away but now you have to search for the station and its much more complex.

      Why does everybody think that was so easy? I did the same thing with that app, and more often than not it would tell me that my route DOESN'T EXIST!

    Nice video. I've been also testing the app as well and its honestly not that bad. Has a lot of potential to be a really reliable app. Also ngl can't wait to see dark mode installed in the beta app. that would be cool as hell to see!

    The new MTA app is a MAJOR improvement of the MyMTA app, which was a disaster. Is it perfect? Of course not.
    At least I'm able to add particular subway lines and bus routes to my Favorites a lot easier than on the MyMTA app. And arrival times aren't always accurate.

      Because it's easier for them to control information in their own app and use their internal knowledge accordingly rather than rely on external apps, which vary. What would "supporting" third party apps look like? They have a developer group and answer those folks questions Already
