"Welcome to London! You're in one of the best cities in the world, home to spectacular cultural happenings, unrivalled restaurants, world-leading nightlife and so much more. But you're not going to get to enjoy all of that if you can't navigate the city properly. And you can't do that on your own - thank god navigation apps exist."
"You can compare costs and travel times of basically every mode of transport, from Ubers to e-scooters and it lets you filter for routes with step-free access, minimal walking or the cheapest fares. More than that, it tells you the best exit at your arrival station - which I've found particularly useful for the larger, more confusing stations like Bank - and it'll let you know which part of the train you should get on to minimise walking when you alight."
Citymapper is specifically designed for city navigating. It compares costs and travel times across modes, filters for step-free access, minimal walking, or cheapest fares, and recommends station exits and optimal carriage positions to minimise walking. Arrival times are not always fully accurate and the most efficient route can require extra scrolling. Google Maps provides driving, public transport, bike and walking information, includes live disruption alerts and fares, and offers Street View to show exact visuals while walking. Most Londoners use Citymapper or Google Maps, but ultimate app choice depends on personal preference.
