Door Position App Recommendations

[Lunaticonthegrass]

I recently bought a new phone so, obviously, I need an app which gives door positions for the London Underground. There are many London Underground apps but not many of them do door positions. The one I used to use was made by Visual IT Limited, but this hasn't been updated since 2019 so doesn't show the Battersea extension. (Or the Elizabeth Line.)

So, any recommendations?

Please note that I'm on Android. iPhone users can start their own thread.

I use First Off The Tube, which is useful as it stores all the details on the phone rather than needing a connection, so it's easier to use under ground.

However, it's not always accurate and sometimes doesn't use the most direct exit (for example, if changing from the Picc to the Northern at KXSP, it will send you up the stairs at the east end of the platform, on to and round the big corridor and back down again, rather than sending you to the western end of the platform and down the escalator at that end.

I couldn't find anything on Android that fulfilled my requirements, so bought a cheap second hand iPhone. This means I could buy Geoff's Station Master app. The door positions (on the whole) get updated with any changes and there are excellent 3D maps of the stations. I only use the phone for tube challenges so just keep it on a pay as you go contract with GiffGaff which gives me access to Wifi Extra when using the Underground.

There is an Android app which claims to contain the Station Master maps. Unfortunately they're just in image format so just blur and become unusable when zooming in.
