Everything ExitNYC can do, and what’s new.

Details above.

Station signs. Your chosen station appears as a black station sign with its trains, like the ones on the platform.

Easier to read. Small labels and notes are larger throughout, and text uses Helvetica, the typeface of the subway’s signs.

A tidier footer. Links, data facts and the version now sit in one clear band instead of five rows of small print.

A sharper logo, one frame. A bold new mark, drawn as a vector so it stays crisp at every size, and every page now shares the same width, header and footer. Search fields stand out clearly from the text around them.

Install it like an app. Add ExitNYC to your home screen: it opens full screen and works in stations without a signal. On Android and desktop Chrome or Edge, tap Install app; on iPhone, use Share, then Add to Home Screen.

Clearer offline download and Start over. The offline-data card now explains what it saves and shows progress, and Start over clears your station and destination in one tap.

Fresher places every week. The offline OpenStreetMap places now refresh automatically each week.

Closer stations, one tap away. If another station is clearly closer to where you are going, it appears with its trains and distance, and Switch changes to it. Nothing switches on its own: you may need your station for your line.

Far-away warning. Past about a mile, a notice shows the distance and a rough walk time, so a long walk never hides behind a list of exits.

Check your destination. Very far, or in another borough? ExitNYC asks you to check the place you picked, a common slip with addresses that exist in two boroughs.

Rough walk times. Results show about how many minutes it is on foot from the nearest exit, estimated from straight-line distance and the street grid.

Grouped by color. Lines that share a trunk and color stay together: A C E, then B D F M, instead of A B C D E F M.

Same order everywhere. Station search, Near me, the train chooser and exit results all use one order: 1 2 3, 4 5 6, 7, A C E, B D F M, G, J Z, L, N Q R W, S.

Shuttles last. The S shuttle shares the L’s gray but is listed after the other lines, as on station signs.

Places and businesses. Restaurants, shops, cinemas, hotels and offices from OpenStreetMap. “AMC 14, 34 st” now finds AMC 34th Street 14 at 312 W 34th St.

Street corners. Type the nearest corner, like “34 St & 8 Av”, “34th and 8th” or “corner of Houston and Broadway”, when you have no house number.

About 71,000 places offline. The optional offline download now includes OpenStreetMap places with their street addresses, so place search works without a signal.

Forgiving names. “34th” matches “34”, “Fifth” matches “5”, “theater” matches “theatre”, and old names still work: “Loews 34th” finds the AMC. Near misses are labelled Closest name match.

Private live search. Online place lookups go through ExitNYC’s own server, so the search service never sees your IP address. Nothing is sent when your saved places already match.

Fewer wrong suggestions. Online address results that contain numbers you never typed, such as a Queens address for a cinema name, are no longer shown.

Full-screen search on phones. Suggestions open in a sheet above the keyboard instead of hiding below the fold.

Works offline. After one visit the website opens without a connection, with every station and exit on your device.

Offline addresses. An optional download of NYC street address ranges answers address searches underground.

Near me. Tap Near me to list the closest stations. Location is off until you tap, and it is never saved or sent.

Recents and shared links. Recent stations and destinations stay on your device, and Share sends a link that reopens the same exits.

Better station search. Exact name matches come first, so “broad st” finds Broad St before Broadway.

Exits ranked by distance. Every mapped MTA street exit at the station, sorted by straight-line distance to your destination.

Street labels. Historic corner records, nearby intersections and street-geometry estimates, each marked with how certain it is.

Train lines. Choose the train you are on to group exits by its station section, with official MTA line colors.

Address suggestions. Live NYC address search from NYC Planning GeoSearch, plus landmarks and coordinates.

Elevators and units. Show only elevator exits, and switch between miles and kilometers.
