Six Transit and Navigation Apps You Need While in NYC
17 November 2017
When I first moved to New York for college I was equipped with a subway map that I never used. I wanted to navigate the city on my own without looking like an obvious tourist. Trust me, I had trips that should've taken 30 minutes to and from that lasted hours, or included random detours in Harlem because I refused to ask for help. I have no regrets, but I figure the average college student isn't as stubborn as me. It's okay to get some help when exploring NYC, so whether you're a new college student starting your freshman year, a doe-eyed tourist, or a mom with several pamphlets and maps in your purse, these subway transit apps can help you navigate and determine the fastest and safest routes in the city.
Happy travels!
