You might want a petrol app in NYC. Maybe even a fuel cost app. But have you thought about the subway, what everyone uses? There are some apps on phone that work great to help you out with this, and these very cool apps are listed below.
1. Citymapper. You can get around ALL the boroughs with this app, and you can map out your destination and go from point A to point B by using subway, bike, and walking distances to find out about how long it will take and what to expect. You'll also find out about disruptions, when to leave the bus, and you'll get specific weather for each part of the city, along with a way to save your favorite routes.
2. Subculture.FM. You can figure out who your favorite subway musicians are, and you can listen to them this way. The musicians display a bar code, and this links them up to your phone and enables you to store their music on your phone and listen to them anytime you want. Pretty cool, huh?
3. Transit App. This is a pretty simple app. When you walk out of your home toward public transit and transportation, transit app will keep you up to date on departure times of various modes of transit, such as buses and subways. You can also use the trip planner to figure out how to get where you want to go.
4. Accessway. Accessway is an app for the visually impaired and blind that helps you get around New York City and navigate the MTA System this way. It uses a sensor-based program along with Wi-Fi to help you find where you are and get to the subway platform right on time. It also tells you about arrival times and the service charges of trains.
5. Bus NYC. This great app is the most comprehensive for navigating the NYC bus system, and includes live departure times, live arrival times, timetables for all routes, service advisories, bus route maps, trip planners, and many others. Many of this app's features can also work without Wi-Fi, just in case you go underground.
6. Moovit. Moovit works great to make public transportation hassle-free. It features schedules, real-time arrivals for buses and trains, and info planning and navigation. If you use this app, you can also contribute your experience to it, making the experience better for the next person who comes along.
As you can see, all of these apps can help you get around NYC, and while most people there don't drive, some do, so you may want to search for guides to taxis and other vehicle-related apps, also. But for the most part, with access to buses and the MTA subway system, you're pretty much set to get around NYC easily and relatively cheaply for the length of your visit, and also if you're a resident. Good luck, and be sure you try out several apps to find the one that works best for you.
