★★★★★ The English translation is gone .
★★★★★ However this is the main way I get to places without getting lost.

★★★★★May 8, 2026
Not particularly accurate

Either this app doesn't provide accurate schedules, or the metro system just can't keep to a schedule despite decades of operation. I've been in Korea long enough to know. Ultimately, this app isn't particularly reliable.

★★★★★Sep 1, 2025
안맞음

다른 앱으로 갈아타요... 최단시간 48분으로 뜨는데 최소 환승 누르니까 최소환승 + 40분이고...

★★★★★Aug 4, 2025
지하철역 방향 안맞음

지하철역에서 ~행 이라고 표시 되어있는것들이 실제 역간판에 씌여있는것과 맞지 않아서 햇살릴때가 많습니다.. 이것만 고쳐지면 정말 좋을거같어요

★★★★★Jul 13, 2024
Typing in English

Please bring it back! I want to recommend this app to my friends, but I can’t

★★★★★May 10, 2024
Doesn’t work with iPhone

I set my destination along with the alarm and the location doesn’t get updated. Sometimes I will be notified long after I arrive at my destination after I had forgotten that I set the alarm. This worked really well with Galaxy devices but on iPhones it is not working as designed.

Also, landmarks indicated on the maps will help you understand the maps more easily. ◈ Take advantage of useful information only available at KakaoMetro. “What is the carriage nearest to Exit No. 5?” KakaoMetro can tell you which carriage to board to arrive adjacent to the stairs leading to the ticket gate. ◈ Check out the fastest routes. KakaoMetro shows you the fastest routes to your destination as of the current time. ◈ Information on Service Access Permissions [Optional Access Permissions] - Location: To check nearby stations - Push notification: To activate the arrivial alarm with sound and an icon badge - Camera: To attach a newly taken photo when reporting incorrect information - Photo: To attach a saved photo when reporting incorrect information * You can use the service without allowing optional permissions. * KakaoMetro’s route search service is based on the timetables provided by Seoul Metro and other Transit Corporations. * Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
