Leave a Review Sweep Alarm
Works when it works (multiple tickets)
Sitting in my car right now with a ticket in my hand, even though the app says that today is not a sweeping day. This has happened a few times now, beware.Seanroc2
make alarm louder
Can you guys please make the alarm louder or at least the option to make it louder? All I get is a notification, but there’s really no actual alarm in the name.Westside218
Love it!
This it the app we've all been waiting for, living in San Francisco with a car. This app works wonderfully, is reliable and accurate.
The only feature I wish was included is the ability to choose how early to get notification reminders to move my car. Notifications currently seem to only be a couple hours ahead, but I would like the option to add more and be able to choose how much earlier I get them.Show lessCadeRageous
Fantastic idea, executed well
I don’t often write reviews, but this app was such a great idea I had to give some kudos. I have only been using the app for less than a week so there might be some issues I haven’t noticed but so far it seems perfect. I have seen people comment that some streets are not correct, however all streets around where I usually park are correct and it’s recommended that you always double check with the sign so no issues there. For those wanting more aggressive notifications, you can go into notifications in your iphone settings, go to Sweep Alarm from the list of apps, and change the notifications to persistent, always show previews, etc. Thank you Jorn for designing this app, and for free!Show lessTfbsf
LOVE IT
I love this app. It's so great and definitely has lowered my frequency parking tickets.
FEATURE REQUESTS:
(I hope Jorn might read these)
1. Ability to track location of 2 cars. Sometimes a friend that visits could use this so I can help prevent them from getting a ticket.
2. More INTENSE alarms so there's no way to miss it.
Can the Notifications be leveled up somehow?
Carry on Jorn! Love your work.Show lessGot ticket!
I got a street cleaning ticket at Fell & Baker yesterday morning. I double checked the app before I park. It shows the street cleaning time is 6am to 8am. I safely parked my car on Fell after 9am without to check the signs on the street. An hour later I got the ticket that caused me noticed signs shows the sweep time is 8am to 10am. I feel I was fooled.
Conclusion: The app designed with map is very convenient to use. Don’t rely it. It may provide an un-updated info. Be better to check the signs on the street when you parking.Show lessefex333
Developer Response
Hi, Sweep Alarm uses the latest data provided by data.sfgov.org. As mentioned in the app every time you set an alarm, please make sure you always double check the signs since this data is not always up to date.Worthless
It’s a fantastic concept. But fails miserably in the execution. Save yourself the ticket money and use another method to remind you.Meatball sammich
Such a useful app!!
Please keep it updated and going 😊Meow1988
Almost perfect!
This app is going to save me hundreds or thousands of dollars. I try to remember to move my car at the right time but forget maybe once a month, and that’s a $95 mistake in SF. This app is almost perfectly designed.. The only improvement would be more assertive and customizable alarm / reminder options. Great job!
Some reviewers have noted some inaccurate street cleaning dates. So far all info is accurate for me, but I always check the app against the sign before trusting the alarm, recommend that for all users just in case.Show lessPaul M SF
