The MTA App Quest winner was announced on Thursday with Embark NYC taking the grand prize. Embark NYC, compatible with Apple iOS and Android devices, offers trip planning, service advisories, and interactive maps and schedules.
“Embark NYC,” built by Taylor Malloy and David Hodge of Embark, was selected out of 42 apps by a nine-member panel and received a $5,000 cash prize. Apps were judged on quality, implementation, and potential impact on MTA riders.
