Solid app

So easy to use, gives me all the info I need to get from point A to point B. I am now confident I can get where I need to go on the subway!

Nice app it could use more features

Nice app it could use a section where you agent real get real-time of when the train will arrive

Great NYC subway app

Well worth buying the full version. Pinch and zoom was fine in the free app but the full version shows street names, local attractions, estimated train arrival at a specific stop and access to subway stations with WiFi. Very clear when you zoom

Nice interface

Very nice to look at and simple to use. Some granularity over alerts would be nice.

I cant believe I spent money on this

Wow, for paying $3 for this app, I would at least expect it to recognize that 168 is also a stop on the A and C train in the "search" function. Also, I expected it to have train arrival times clearly listed, not hidden away by using the "search" function again (when I could just use a free app like Google maps for the same purposes). Overall I think this is a pricy app for little functionality. One of the only good things that I appreciate about the app is the info on each subway stop (like whether or not you can cross over to the opposite platform).

Awesome App

First trip to NYC. The subway system is insane. But with this app, we did not get lost even once!! Takes a little time to figure out how to use it. But so worth it. Even the New Yorkers wanted one!!

Simple and useful

Have been using it for years and it remains a great subway reference for experienced riders. My go-to app for subway maps.

Best NYC metro map

The only one I use and recommend to friends and visitors. Advises on train changes on the weekends, along with pretty accurate arrival times. Search function hadnt let me down. Get this app!

Does The Job

Nice app, does the job, price is right.

Great app

I have used this app for over 5 years on my trips to NYC and cant imagine using the subway without it.

Needs PATH

Great app, needs PATH integration too!

Great App!

UPDATED REVIEW, 7/8/15: The developers updated their maps -- two thumbs up. Also, thanks for the shoutout in the udpdate notes! ORIGINAL REVIEW, 7/3/15: I really love this app and I use it all the time, but the maps need to be updated — the R Train is running on its normal route now (and has been for almost a year) and the app hasn’t been updated to reflect that. Great app, but the designers should stay on top of things like this.

Kickmap is the best!

This map is awesome cool designs, special trains not shown on regular maps, can switch between day and night map, hope you make more stuff like this, this is my favorite app of all time! My name is Avi.

Not worth the money

Cool map and the idea is nice but its not really useful when you need to get from stop to stop. Doesnt give enough alternative routes, I wasnt able to find my station, and also map isnt clickable. Needs more work. Theres plenty of more efficient NYC subway app that are free!

Good, but could easily be better

In this new version the pull up tab with the information on each line is much too small and is very difficult to read. Im not quite sure why the size was reduced in this version, but it makes the app much less pleasant to use. This must be fixed in the next update.

Best design

Better design and easier readability than anything the MTA has ever done, including Vignelli.
