The live board
The information you look up for, without the route-planner clutter.
Choose a service and station. TubeBoard arranges the next trains by platform and direction, with destinations and countdowns kept in a single, readable view.
- Every second
- Countdowns tick locally between refreshes, with clear Due and Here states.
- Every platform
- Arrivals stay grouped by platform or direction using the data TfL provides.
- Your level of detail
- Simple mode stays glanceable. Detailed mode adds train IDs and current locations when available.
Find your stop
Pick a line. Search a station. Open the board.
TubeBoard starts with the station you care about. Search the network, choose the right service at an interchange, use Nearby Station when you are already there, or return to one of your recent stops.
- Searchable line and station lists
- Clear service choices at interchange stations
- Nearby matching stays on your device
- Your three most recent stations stay close
Read it your way
A quick glance, or the detail behind it.
Simple mode keeps the board pared back to destinations and times. Detailed mode adds the line, train identifier and live location where TfL supplies them. Both modes are included for free.
Boards refresh automatically about once a minute. Pull down whenever you want to request the latest predictions.
Home at a glance
The network status and your next board, together.
Home keeps the compact Tube status rail, recent stations and the fastest ways into a live board in one place. Nearby matching remains private and runs on your device.
- Status
- One compact severity rail
- Recents
- Your three latest stations
- Private
- Nearby matching stays on device

Independent and private
Useful information, with very little asked of you.
TubeBoard needs no account and contains no advertising, analytics or cross-app tracking. Favourite stations, recent stations, display choices and Nearby Station matching stay on your device.
Live Activities use a short-lived registration so the TubeBoard service can send the selected board through Apple Push Notification service. Inactive registrations are removed automatically.
