Tunnel Rat
Navigate New York’s subway with realtime info and alerts.
Tunnel Rat is New York's underground expert—a fast, native, and private app for riding the subway, built specifically for those who rely on it every day. Totally free, no ads, and no tracking. Unlike other transit apps, the ambition is narrow: cover the NYC subway in depth—just this system, just this city. Realtime countdowns, live train tracking, summarized alerts, trip planning, reminders, precise entrances widgets, and more, each designed with care and precision.
Hey PH, I'm Ry! Designer, maker, etc. Most recently at Figma, but building some lil bits and bobs while I take a break.
Throughout my decade in NYC, I've been craving a subway app that works a bit more like how I think about it: instant access to the stuff I use daily, with everything else a tap away. And instead of trying to do everything, one that's focused exclusively on NYC. So... I built it.
Tunnel Rat's a native iOS app, built to be fast, free, reliable, private, and accessible from the ground up. Realtime arrivals, service alerts, live routing, trip reminders, and widgets, all around one idea: open it, get what you need, put your phone away before the train comes.
Still very much a work in progress, so if you ride, give it a try and tell me what's missing or broken. Drop me a line here, in the app's feedback flow, or at [email protected].
