Introducing the next generation in transit maps: the world`s first scalable interactive transit map The ONLY map that offers real-time GPS tracking in a beautifully rendered map covering commuter rail, subway, streetcars, and buses. Nexmap is gorgeously ...
Im actually rather impressed Im someone who takes transit exclusively around Boston not just for commuting and this app is a little gem Really easy to understand the map and super simple I havent had any crashing issues maybe it doesnt perform as well on older phones and when I did find a bug with Park Street downtown the developer was quick to respond and more than helpful theres an update on its way so im told The map does have GPSbased ETAs at stops but only at major stops I was inclined to knock the app a star for this but I realized its also why this app feels so nice as much for what it left out as what it put in In the week and a half Ive used Nexmap this hasnt proven a problem but i held onto a simple realtime app as well in case I need it Anyway pretty nifty idea I hope theyll expand to include buses in the surrounding metro area as well and maybe add a few other cities Its great in Boston but when I travel to Montreal or San Francisco frequently I have to drag out the old maps                 A little gem really nice maps
The map you see on image one is the basic interface You zoom in and click on the rail or transit line or hub that is in a neighborhood Tapping on that area will list the subwaytrainbus lines that stop there and who soon the next few will arrive The good List subway and bus times for one location Also lists what the next few times will be Does cover subway commuter rail and some bus lines all in one app the Bad does not list all bus lines only what it considers major areas When you get the pop up for a station like image 2 you almost always have to scroll to see the information you need to that window would be nicer if it were a bit larger For heavy rail it says when the next train should arrive but not what the scheduled time is knowing the next train is in 12 minutes is good but know it is the 1020 train would also be helpful Also no GPS integration chances are youll want to click on something close to your current position but you can only get there by knowing your current position and zooming in not very good for visitors to the city Stops also have a track button but you need to add another app to get that huh If this were 99 cents Id say just buy it For 199 it still needs some work There are other 99 cent apps that give you a better interface           Just OK
Doesnt have my bus 93 and brutal interface for finding buses Should separate bussubway maps Doesnt appear to have bus stop ETAs only general arrivals at destinations     Terrible for buses
Needs to show my current location Would make that app 100x better Great interactive map of the subway           Current Location
I was hesitant to review this earlier because there were a few bugs and it lacked a search option for stations Bam I just updated and I gotta say Im back to being impressed It was already a pretty looking app with a lot of promise and now its coming together Looks like I can search and there seems to be more realtime info I do wish it had some more stops but it definitely has 90 of the ones I use on a daily basis Ill definitely prefer having all the transit systems in one app though so thats a plus                 Now its definitely a 5star app
I dont live in Boston but was visiting recently and tried out this lil app Worked well for getting around for the weekend and a couple of my friends who I was visiting use it as their main transit app I am back in the bay area and would LOVE something like this to use in the meantime Im happy to recommend this app My whirlwind tour of the city was made possible by Nexmap Boston                 Beautiful layout nice app
This and its companion Nextime is a stand out in a dense field great graphics ease of use features accuracy But it could use just a bit of work Heres whats missing 1 I love the clever layering of detail when zooming but what I really really really want is for the bus lines that are revealed as I zoom to be the ones I can reach according to Nextime thats not only exactly what I need to see when I zoom but also strikes me as the natural thing to show rather than arbitrary main lines I never use 2 Bike share Hubway stations and dock info 3 More cities NYC London Vienna 4 Merge the two apps and make each an add on to the other Having two different apps running is just a bit weird              Almost Perfect
I use this app every time Im in the city to find information on the arrival of the T at my station and to confirm my route when Im venturing outside of areas I travel regularly Ive found the T arrival information to be accurate The map and interface are beautifully done overall I really like having maps of the entire system accessible in a single screen I do wish the app had a find me button to at least point out the closest stations to my current location when Im out exploring which would also be handy for tourists I never take the bus so I cant speak to the experience using this app to travel that way though I do see the track button others reference in their reviews this does require a separate app if you want to track these buses in the background while you use other apps and get push alerts when they get close This app still provides the estimated arrival times of buses just like it does for the T and commuter rail trains so youre not getting shorted out of anything                 Beautifully done great for the T
Every time I zoom in or out on the main map the app crashes Also it does not show any buses starting from Salem commuter rail station     Frequent crashes missing bus routes
Not for real commuters Most of us dont live only at the major stations and the developers promise of treating bus stops at the same level as other stations is laughable Dont bother     Pretty but useless
This is merely a map and to get any realtime bus info you have to pay an additional 3 for their other app Its also pretty slow considering I have it on an iPhone 4 it would be unusable on anything less     Slow and lack of features
Worthless metro map with inaccurate real time info and no GPS position A free PDF map is just as good Im in Boston deleted it within 12 hrs as a waste of time and memory Save yourself 2     Complete waste of
The map is gorgeous I love the increasing detail as you zoom in and this is the only map Ive found that includes all major transit systems Unfortunately there are several bus lines missingthe 96 doesnt appear at all So practically speaking the app isnt as useful as Id like I would love it if the app simply covered the full bus system           Its close
Its the worst application ever installed it on my Iphone Heavy close out of nowhere and just a map that moves I threw my money away Smart Ride app is much better than this and also is FREE     Horrible App
App says it has built in real time tracking of buses but when you try and use this built in feature it says you have to buy an even more expensive app to enable it Totally misleading bait and switch     Misleading ripoff
After using a couple mediocre Boston transit apps I finally found one Ill stick with a streamlined well designed app that interconnects all major transit lines even buses Brilliant I wish this existed in SF and NYC                 Ive been waiting for this
Yes it is lovely but I agree with a previous reviewer who calls it a bait and switch It promises GPS real time information but requires you to purchase a more expensive app to get it So I bought a pretty map and the schedules not what I was looking for        Disappointed
I literally just paid for a moveable map of the mbta line I thought this was supposed to show me where the trains are if they are late Not user friendly at all The only other things that I can see on the map to use is a button that gives me a search box to locate stations by name a button for alerts which didnt give me any info beside telling me there was an alert     Terrible
