A truly useful app!

Over the years papas have come and gone, but I have always had Exit Strategy! Such a useful app and I’m so happy to see it getting updates.

Still the best

You need the MTA app for service changes but most days you need this. We’re usually waiting for the train, why not walk down the platform to where your best exit is at your destination stop? Even when you have time to spare you’d rather not use more of it on platforms than necessary.

Great app but outdated Q subway line
     
by ca_boh · April 25, 2026

Could you update the Q line (96th, 63rd, etc). Station names and maps are outdated, making the app confusing. Hope it’s not huge work to make this happen.

Neighborhood map needs update
     
by smallBizer · February 3, 2024

Good app. Unfortunately neighborhood map (for detailed station entrance information) has not been updated. Q and 7 line extensions not included

Extremely Helpful

Don't wait. Get this app NOW.

I've had this app for almost 20 years. Pretty sure it was the first app I ever paid for, on an iPod Touch around '07/'08. The description says it all. Don't wait. This is $4 VERY well spent. I'm a native NYer, but no one knows exactly where to stand for every possible exit at every station. Now you can. If you care about maximizing the efficiency of your commute, download this immediately. Honestly, they can/should charge more.

Update Map
