In this case, Citymapper makes it easy to see how far away everything is at a single glance.Īnother simple but highly valuable feature is Citymapper’s ‘saved places’. As is the case with London, it can be quicker to walk part way or to a station nearer your final destination rather than go from one nearer to your current location (and then end up having to change tube lines). I find this particularly useful when deciding which tube station to go from. One great thing about Citymapper is that you can check what transport options are around you at any given time, as well as when the next bus or train will come along. Unlike Google Maps, for example, which requires you to enter a journey before you can select the mode of transport you want to take, Citymapper gives the option for you to choose this first (as well as a lot of other additional information). Regardless, the design of the homescreen effectively offers a choice. Personally, I tend to base whether I’m taking the bus or tube on contextual factors like the weather or what else I am doing in the day, rather than how long it takes. Some people prefer to compare various transportation options at one time, however, a lot of people are also loyal to one particular type. One thing I like is that it breaks down travelling options by modes of transport, like bus, tube, or cycle. The app’s homescreen is designed to be entirely intuitive, making it easy for users to find out exactly what they want to know in as few clicks as possible. Here’s a quick run-down of the best Citymapper features to appreciate. The main thing I love about Citymapper is its UX, which includes a combination of useful (and highly functional) features and small and understated design details.
