  • Life saver

    When I have to park close to H&K instead of my normal ramp this app is amazing. Most times I cannot leave my office to “feed the meter”. Being able to do it from my phone... genius! Saved me a TON of parking tickets
  • Excellent App

    Unfortunately I got a $40 parking ticket before I discovered this excellent App.

    I use it all the time.
  • It’s a tracking device for the meter maids.

    I parked in zone 17 (Delaware Ave between north and Allen), I used the app at 8 am (2 hr parking) near Allen, at 950am I moved my vehicle much closer to where I was (north st) and at my expiring time 10am, the app would not allow me to pay again. It stated my allotted time was up. I then put $2 worth of quarters in the meter. When I went to my vehicle at 1142 am to leave the area (18 minutes remaining) I had a parking ticket with a time stamp at 1053am. After several phone calls, including a personal one to Kevin Helfer (unreturned) I was told it is only 2 hr parking at the meters. After explaining that I left my original spot and paid cash at the second spot, they did not care. In my opinion, pay cash and they can’t track your vehicle. Zone 17 is large. Hopefully you can conduct your business in under 2 hours. Absolute joke!!!

  • Great Solution

    I park a lot more in the city now, because I can control my meter from my phone and extend my parking remotely.
  • Great but need more options

    The best part is as a time saving the 5 minutes you save when you just have to run into a place. But the app does not allow a 15 minute or 30 min options of pay. It forces you to pay 1 or 2 hours. Which to me for most people defeats the purpose if you have a hour or two of time you have time to put coins in a meter or get a ticket. So the only time I have use this is when the weather is bad and it is worth the cost. With better paying options I feel I would use this all the time.

  • Very convenient

    So practical and easy to use. Not always easy to know what zone you are in; would help if App could assist on that issue.
  • Parking made easier

    I have use the app multiple time and it works. I have never gotten a parking ticket after paying with this app.

    Running couple of minutes late, you can simply continue to where you are going and dont have to stop and find change to pay or sometime get behind someone else and wait to use the machine, to type in your license plate, to print the ticket and place it on your dashboard carefully, making sure the winds does not blows your ticket out of place.

    The app is secure, as long as you dont share your pin with anyone.

    Cant see anything negative on using the app.
  • Pretty Good

    Love the App - to a point.
    Why isn’t it city wide? Recently was in Allentown for lunch but couldn’t use the app. It should be available everywhere. Therefore, it gets a 2 star rating so far
  • Convenient and easy

    I use the app to park for work! Very convenient and easy to use. Parking zones are clearly marked if you can use the app for them. Love it
  • So convenient !

    I love this app. Makes it so much easier to maintain your time and you’re not running out in the freezing cold to add money !
