東京メトロ　おてがる出口案内アプリ app for iPhone and iPad

Tokyo Metro Exit Guide Application

Tokyo Metro Co., Ltd. launched MetroLab project to create solutions for passengers to use Tokyo Metro subway stations smoothly and comfortably. For its first application, MetroLab has developed this exit-guide app that guides users to station exits and facilities in Omote-sando Station and Nihombashi Station using simple information, such as indicatorsinstead of maps, The app syncs with Apple Watch (OS1), so users can confirm indicators just by looking at their watches. With this station exit and facility guide app, people who do not like using maps can find their way without trouble by following signs and signposts. Give it a try.

Advantages

With the Exit Guide, you can confirm the location of the closest exit to your destination before using the station. Simply enter your destination and the app displays the names of the fare gate and exit you need. By confirming names and guide signs in the station along the way, you can reach the exit or facility you are heading for without trouble or error.

If you are using an Apple Watch, the watch will sync with a destination entered on your iPhone to guide you with a series of displays. Instead of trying to read your smartphone as you walk, you can confirm the indicators to the exit or other destination by checking your watch.

If you proceed in the wrong direction for the exit you set, Bluetooth beacons installed throughout the station notify you with a “push” notice or vibration.
