Real-time NYC Subway and MTA Bus arrivals
Live countdowns from MTA's real-time GTFS feeds. Know exactly when the next train or bus is coming — not just the schedule. Metro-North and LIRR show scheduled departure times.
Walking time to every subway station and bus stop
Each stop shows your walk time from your current location, adjusted for your mobility profile. Plan your departure, not just your arrival.
Live Activity on your iPhone Lock Screen
Track any arrival on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. Watch the countdown without unlocking your phone — useful in crowded stations.
Home screen and lock screen widgets
Small, medium, home screen, and lock screen widgets show your next subway or bus arrival without opening the app.
Nearby stops, automatically
Open Arelo in any NYC neighborhood and instantly see the closest subway stations and bus stops around you. Tap any stop for live arrivals.
Arrival alerts for your specific train
Swipe left on any arrival row to set a one-time notification for that specific vehicle approaching. Never miss your train again.
