    This was my go to app for parking. It was accurate on both time & GPS location. The MAIN problem is when Apple went to iOS 11 (or anything above that) the app doesn’t seem to work well. I’d gladly pay for the app but no updates makes me wonder. Also some of the icons are pretty ambiguous & there is no manual or guide; like what’s w/ the spade in the upper right corner & what’s the little “C...” & “G...” pop up menus for?
