iPad support?

I love this app for my phone but it would be awesome if if supported my iPad as well!!!

Dont buy this

Not worth it. Just use a map. Thought it would be helpful. It wasnt.

What happened?

Ive been using this app for about a year and found it rather handy... Until this week. Three days in a row Ive hustled for a 3minute train only to find not only no 3minute train, but no ten minute train either. Where do these guys get their data? Tired of running and disappointment.

No good

This app doesnt account for single tracking on weekends- primarily why I bought it, because I dont want to get stuck waiting 20 minutes on the weekend. Well, it happened twice- got stuck waiting, completely inaccurate

Disappointing!

This app is inefficient. Half the time it has no data for the stops I need. Plus it has no metro news. What about weather conditions? Elevator outages? I wish I wouldnt have spent the dollar.

i hope the map is new

love it ihope the map is new

Great app, but needs to update for new plus schedule

Update the map for the new plus routes! It doesnt show these rush hour plans. Would be 5 stars if accurate.

paid app still has ads

Crap, in-app purchase to remove ads. ive had this app for over a year, now i have to upgrade to remove ads?? its a bad app anyway, doesnt use live train times, just the schedule. i recommend Embark for planning and NextBus DC for live train times

Fast but now has ads on an app I paid for!

I like this app for metro times because its fast and simple. I paid $0.99 for it a while ago. Now, I upgrade and it has ads, requiring me to pay again! Thats no good!

Ads on a paid app?

Seriously? This feels like a bait and switch. I paid specifically to not have an app with ads. Then they put them in anyway. Im deleting this app and will never download another app from this company.

Bait and switch

Recent update was first identified as adding support for Ads. Not a great feature on a paid app! After awhile, the developer changed the description to "Fixes." Same update. No actual fixes. Just ads. What a crappy app and a misleading developer.

Have to pay for the app and still get ads?!

Find a free one and just pay to remove the ads being you will have to pay to get rid of them on this app now...

Ads on a paid app = pure greed

Really developer? You add ads to a PAID app, but not iPhone 5 support? Then you ask me to pay the purchase price again to remove ads? Horrible and greedy. I wish I could give it zero stars. This app will be deleted as soon as I tap submit. For others reading this review, try iTransDC. The developer is super responsive (fixed an issue on the map within hours) and the UI is clean and beautiful.

BUYER BEWARE: Shady Developer!!!

I paid for this app and it has worked fine for 3 years, but I see now that it is time to move on... Latest update only said "fixes" but what it really did was add advertisements to an app I already PAID for, only to then try and charge me *another* 99¢ to remove them. And they didnt even add iPhone 5 support! No thanks. I will restore the older version from my iTunes backup until I find a good replacement app (looking into iTrans DC Metro). Shameful. Stay away from ANY developer who thinks it is okay to trick its customers with a bait & switch... What a disgrace!

Shoddy App

There have been two or three updates since the new Metro maps were released and the map in this app STILL hasnt been updated. The "augment" feature is just plain stupid and utterly useless. The only worthwhile information the app provides can be gotten for free online and in other apps. What a waste.

What Happened?

This app used to be very helpful prior to the last update. I dont know what happened but I will have to move on and make one of their competitors my new favorite.

Nicest app ever!

Great app! Easy to use, efficient, and adds dont bother!! Highly recommend it

App

Ive been using this one for a few weeks now on an iPhone 5s. The times are really accurate, usually spot on to the normal DC Metro website AND the times listed on the Station boards. Once in a while, this app is a minute off. Literally one minute off, and that is only about 10% of the time. I have been comparing times for the last two weeks, and this app is really accurate. If you are the kind of person that cannot live knowing this app may be ONE minute off, then you need to re-evaluate your usage of the DC Metro system. Here is a solution for you - get to the Metro two minutes early.

Broken=useless

App closes every time I select a line in the alerts section. Doesnt save favorite stations. Can I rate this zero stars? Fix please

Please fix notifications

In terms of accurately providing train schedules, this app works very well. When it comes to setting up notifications, however, the app fails and closes every time I select a line to provide notifications for, and my favorite lines do not save. Dont be lazy, fix this.
