Assuming you mean TrainTime (which does both LIRR and Metro-North). That app is one of the best transit apps I’ve used (public or private).

TrainTime has different requirements though - it’s focused on schedules and ticket-buying (and does both of those things really well). The relaunched MTA app seems more about way-finding, trip planning, service status. For those functions, I’m not sure it does much of a better job than Transit app or Citymapper app (although certainly an improvement over Apple or Google Maps).

Hmm, I've been using Google Maps for this purpose for years, just helping me decide how to get to a particular spot in NYC, walking, subway, bus, citibike, or uber if its worth it.

It also takes into account the official schedules, so I generally trust its routing.

What am I missing out on that the MTA app does better with?
