### 2/5 — Low performance

*2026-06-10, version 2.27.0*

Page loads are so long, over 2 minutes most days

### 2/5 — Latest app version has gone worse

*2025-06-26, version 2.20.5*

Unable to find gates, so went back to manually open the specific gate in the Help option. 
Unable to book parking with default setting because now I must select a car first when there are multiple cars in the list. 
I haven’t been able to book car space because they are always “fully booked”, but I could see that there are always plenty of empty car spots on the day.

### 1/5 — Lousy

*2025-05-30, version 2.20.4*

Let’s you do look around, but kicks you out and tells you to sign in when you go to book

### 2/5 — Access page not working

*2025-04-16, version 2.20.3*

Please fix the access page. It hasn’t worked in weeks. Parking attendant can’t read my code because all I can show is confirmation page and code is tiny on that page.

### 1/5 — Extremely bad exp

*2025-04-06, version 2.20.3*

Never succeeded in booking during weekdays. The app got an issue to secure a car space for me but reported to facilities that I had booked but not utilised!!!

### 1/5 — Barrier never opens

*2025-04-06, version 2.20.3*

Bluetooth is on, mobile data is on, app updated. Barrier still never opens for me and it’s a nightmare since I arrive because our onsite security do.

### 1/5 — Book parking should not be so stressful!

*2025-03-26, version 2.20.2*

Can never load to book

### 2/5 — Please enable Car Play!!!

*2024-08-20, version 2.16.0*

If any app should have Car Play functionality, it is this one. 

There must be some technical issues where it always try to refresh (rather than cache in poor reception)… which means the app can take ages to load in car parks (where we use it!). 

Please address these.

When it works, it’s great… but that isn’t as often as it should be.

### 1/5 — IOS 12.5.7 not supported

*2024-07-19, version 2.15.3*

My BaseUp stopped working because Baseup all of a sudden requires IOS 13. My phone has the latest update.
I have booked parking I can’t access. Please enable IOS 12.5.7

### 2/5 — Needs CarPlay integration

*2024-06-11, version 2.15.3*

I have to unplug my phone to access or exit the car park because there’s no integration with the car - basic functionality missing

### 1/5 — Pointless

*2024-05-17, version 2.15.3*

A swipe card does a better job

### 2/5 — Frustrated

*2024-02-15, version 2.15.1*

This has to be one of the most frustrating apps to use. The level of stress this app causes me entering or exiting my work car park is next level. 

There’s no ability to edit your booking, you’ve got to cancel and rebook, which is ridiculous. 

When exiting the car park, numerous times the app has “enter car park” as the option to open, rather than exit. It’s just inefficient.

Also, there needs to be better hands free functionality because it’s illegal to use your phone, and I’d prefer not to need to place my car in park and then use the app.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2024-02-15, version 2.15.1*

No idea why I am forced to use this app to get into my work carpark. It is slow to detect gates and is frustrating to use.

### 1/5 — Mediocre

*2023-10-10, version 2.13.0*

Maybe fix your app so that when we try and book a spot when a new date is released it doesn’t crash repeatedly until the spots are all exhausted. Rather than offering up some lame “check your internet connection” excuse, when that’s definitely not the issue and it’s the apps inability to handle the demand at that point in time.

To prospective downloaders avoid using if possible, unfortunately for me that isn’t an option.

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2023-10-06, version 2.13.0*

So buggy. I can’t even add my car to the app to make a booking.

### 1/5 — Poorly developed app

*2023-10-05, version 2.13.0*

If someone parks in my allocated spot, often app would not let me cancel booking and rebook, or find me an alternative spot. Showed up status 500 error message that means nothing to end user. The whole year I reported this every time it happened, nothing improved, customer support and developer did not seem willing to fix, putting blame elsewhere. Yes I did have full 5G signal strength.

### 1/5 — Not great

*2023-09-20, version 2.13.0*

The main reason why you would use this app, to book a park, is always presenting some kind of issue/ time out.

### 1/5 — Jeff

*2026-08-10, version 2.27.5*

Terrible app. Takes too long to load and there is no car play support. Every time i enter my building I’m technically committing an offence by using my mobile phone. Be much easier to open the gate using the cars screen.

### 1/5 — Junkware

*2026-04-03, version 2.26.3*

Piece of junk. Keep having to call security to take me out of the parking lot. Avoid at all cost.

### 1/5 — A works in progress

*2026-02-24, version 2.26.1*

I have so many questions about the design and functionality of this app

- the way it is run in my organisation is akin to everyone purchasing a ticket for a Taylor Swift concert once a week at midday in order to book the parking for the week ahead! Ridiculous!

- Why do I need to use Bluetooth, handle the phone to unlock just to register my entry to the car park - it is slow and inefficiently - why not sync with the existing and and higger tech corporate entry systems (RFID cards, numberplate recognition etc)

- profile and registrations - why can’t this app sync with corporate systems instead of unvalidated user inputs.  The rego field in BaseUp is at least 32 characters long and not validated. 

- In 2026, why no apple CarPlay or android auto functionality? The app encourages use of phone when operating the vehicle in the current configuration

- rego can’t be changed/swapped to another in my profile once parking is booked. Requires a cancellation -and rebook often prompting a loss of available parking. 

- frequent intervention to keep booking parking every week is antiquated. Why not a profile for the whole year including user manageable holiday periods? Why can’t I ask Siri to book my next parking? 

- no integration to calendar functionality of phone, reminding me of upcoming bookings, etc. 

- why is there no feedback/record to user as to actual times checked in/ out of parking? 

If developers need some guidance as to what constitutes a modern and competitive parking app that takes advantage of technologies of this decade, please look at the Wilson Parking app!

### 1/5 — Barely works

*2026-01-23, version 2.26.1*

- The booking experience is very bad, frequently seeing errors
- No CarPlay support

### 1/5 — Double charging

*2026-01-11, version 2.26.0*

Double charge credit card

### 1/5 — Even they don’t trust their App

*2026-01-11, version 2.26.0*

Doesn’t say much for the App when you incorrectly get double charged for a month of car parking, the app shows the transaction for the unauthorised double charge but they still want to see your personal bank statement to see if you were in fact incorrectly charged a 2nd time.

### 1/5 — Not working for parking at all

*2025-11-04, version 2.23.1*

The app can not raise the garage door

### 1/5 — Unable to book parking!

*2025-08-20, version 2.20.10*

Since the app has been updated to include all buildings they are booked out instantly making it impossible to book a parking space

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2025-08-02, version 2.20.7*

The app could not connect with the gate when I try to leave the car park so I had to buy a exit ticket at full price. I first called security but they said they had never heard of the app. Then I tried to press the app help button but it said “no connection”. Totally unacceptable.

### 1/5 — Can’t access via CarPlay

*2025-06-24, version 2.20.5*

In this day and age of heightened awareness of safety with mobile phones and apps while driving, why has a car oriented application not been built with this functionality from day 1?

### 5/5 — Smooth Transition

*2026-05-21, version 2.27.0*

Recently moved to Base Up. App works well and the team are very supportive every step of the way. Happy to report a positive user experience upon go live!

### 5/5 — There should be more parking

*2025-03-13, version 2.20.1*

Funny how there is a section in the app with word “Show Breakdown”. It’s such a taboo word for drivers :D

### 5/5 — Great app and everything works

*2022-01-30, version 2.5.9*

Thank you

### 5/5 — Amazing app!

*2021-09-30, version 2.5.6*

I love this app. It makes booking parking so easy. Every time I have a question the customer support team are so helpful and friendly.

### 5/5 — Great work app

*2021-08-20, version 2.5.6*

Use it for work parking and it’s a great experience.

### 5/5 — So convenient

*2020-09-25, version 2.5.0*

Has been wonderful, and very convenient. On the rare occasion there has been an issue it was sorted out quickly. Thank you

### 5/5 — Great support from the tech team!

*2020-09-07, version 2.4.4*

Great support from the tech team to get up and running. 
Thanks team

### 5/5 — Great app and service

*2020-01-24, version 2.2.3*

This is a great service and very easy to use app. I’ve been using a few times this week with no issues.
If you could add a map of where a parking spot is, this can help find some of the obscure ones that I was assigned.
Also, it would be great to have the ability to change spot if access to it was difficult or it was taken by someone else.

### 4/5 — CarPlay needed

*2024-08-09, version 2.15.3*

Works well but 100% Needs CarPlay so I don’t need to pick up my phone to open the boom gate. Would be great to just press open gate on the cars display

### 4/5 — Dark theme support

*2020-01-17, version 2.2.3*

Even if you don’t develop native app, please make sure that your app works fine on dark theme. Date/Time pickers are “invisible” when book a parking
