### 3/5 — Decent but kinda annoying

*2026-02-26*

I like it until I move my car early and there doesn’t seem to be a way to just cancel the current reminder. This should be effortless but I just spent too long trying to make it work that it just won’t cut it long term. 

If i’ve missed something please let me know.

### 1/5 — Good design. Bad data / Buggy

*2025-11-25*

I want to love this app. But it’s buggy or the data is wrong. I’ve gotten a few parking tickets because I trusted it and didn’t check the signs to set my own alarm

### 5/5 — Great App

Super easy to keep track of my car and avoid tickets. Love the smart park feature. Its always that one time that I forget to move my car that gets me, and this app is great for that!

### 1/5 — Check the signs, don't trust

*2025-10-16*

I've been really liking us app and for the most part the data has seems to have been an accurate. Unfortunately, the one time I didn't check street cleaning was both on Mondays and Thursdays, but it only listed Monday. Now I have a very large ticket to pay. 🙁
