Version 3.1 brings Tube status updates to your device over the air! Sporting a redesigned user interface, and landscape map viewing, London Tube Maps is now better than ever!
Version 3.2 adds support for integration with the London Tube Information app as well as some user interface tweaks.
To search for a station, tap the magnifying glass button from wherever you can see it. You will be shown a list of all of the stations on that map. Tapping on a name will take you back to the map and position the station in the centre of your screen.
If you’re searching from the main map list screen, you will see all stations on the London Underground network. Tapping on one will ask you which line map you wish to view the station on.
To find a station, tap in the search bar at the top and type the first few characters of the station name. Instantly, a filtered list of stations all starting with what you typed will appear. Alternatively, you can tap or drag along the alphabet to the right of the list to jump to stations starting with that letter.
London Tube Maps contains maps for every single line in the London Underground network. You can view them by simply flicking your finger along the line, or you can view them all together in the full TfL map.
Live Status Updates
If you have a connection to the Internet you can now get live tube line statuses delivered right to your device over the air. In addition to displaying the statuses on the main line list, tapping on the information button will display additional information describing the nature of any disruptions to the services.
The Information You Need!
London Tube Maps shows you what you can change to at each station so you can plan your journey ahead. The London Underground has connections to National Rail, Airports, Tramlink and Riverboat services as well as interconnections to other lines, and you can see it all from the maps. And of course if you need to know whether a station has disabled access, it’s right there waiting for you.
London Tube Maps is very easy to use. To find the line you want just flick up and down on the list of lines, and then tap on the line you wish to view. To move around the line just drag your finger to scroll, or double tap to reveal controls to quickly scroll to the left, middle or right of the map. If you need to know what any of the symbols mean, tap the ? in the top right corner of the bar at the top. At the top of the list of lines is the “Full Tube Map” button which displays a full map of the London Underground System, you can navigate around the map by dragging with your finger.
