How many have you run or walked past?
MetroDex turns your runs and walks into a collection of New York City’s subway stations. Bring in the routes you’ve already logged, and every station you passed is yours.
How it works
Your whole running history counts, from day one.
Import your routes

Pass a station, collect it
Every subway station within 75 meters of your route is collected, dated by the route that got it first.

Questions
Good to know
What is MetroDex?
MetroDex is a free app for runners and walkers in New York City. It reads the routes you’ve already logged and collects every subway station you passed, out of the 472 in the system.
How does a station get collected?
Any subway station within 75 meters of a route you ran or walked is collected. Your whole history counts, so importing years of runs can collect hundreds of stations at once.
Does it work with Strava?
Yes. Connect Strava to import your runs and walks, or import GPX files from any app or watch. MetroDex isn’t made or endorsed by Strava.
Do walks count, or only runs?
Walks count too. Any run or walk on foot collects the stations it passes.
Does MetroDex track my location?
No. MetroDex never uses live GPS. It only reads routes you’ve already recorded, and those routes stay on your device.
Is it free?
Yes. MetroDex is free and needs no account.
Does the Staten Island Railway count?
Yes. Its 21 stations are collected and tracked separately from the 472 subway stations, with their own line badge.
