## What is ParkIt?

Never look for your car or get another parking ticket again!

• One of the most popular parking apps on the App Store!
• The only parking app with Dynamic Notifications©!

Helping millions of users since 2014. Featured on AppAdvice, AppGratis, ITAvisen, WatchAware, and others!

ParkIt remembers where you parked as a point on the map, and lets you add a note and an image to make it even easier to find your car. 

With Dynamic Notifications, you’re almost guaranteed to get back before the meter runs out. Just set the expiration time and ParkIt will tell you when you should head back!

ParkIt will give you the quickest route to get there on time, but if you need a little more information it even finds the approximate address of your car.

- - - 

ParkIt is really easy to use. With the tap of a button ParkIt finds and stores your location. Scroll down to add extra information like the parking meter expiration time, a note, and an image. When you’re done, just close the app and everything will be taken care of automatically.

When it's time to head back ParkIt will notify you. If you didn’t set an expiration time, just open the application like you normally would. ParkIt automatically finds your parking, and with a tap you’ll get directions, distance, and estimated travel time to your car. 

- - - 

• Only one button: ParkIt only requires you to press one button to save your location. Even if you're in a hurry you'll have time to park it!

• Meter expiration time: You can enter the time your parking expires, and ParkIt will let you know when you should head back!

• Additional details: You can add a note or an image to help you find your car!

• Be notified: Choose between Static and Dynamic Notifications. Static notifies you 10 minutes before your parking expires, and Dynamic notifies you when you should head back to make it there on time!

• Get directions: ParkIt finds the fastest route for you to follow back to your car, including distance, time, compass, and address!

• And even more!

- - - 

Notice: This app requires an internet connection and device GPS capabilities. ParkIt needs access to your location to function, either “always” or “when in use” depending on the notification type you have set. Continuous usage of the gps might decrease battery life.
Dynamic Notifications use your location even when the app is in the background. The travel time is only an estimate based on your last known location, and we can therefore not guarantee its accuracy.

### 5/5 — Really helps

*2020-12-06, version 2.2.0*

I just needed something simple that would help me find my truck in a parking lot. This app is simple and saves me from the frustration of not being able to find were I parked.

### 1/5 — How to load on Apple Watch

*2020-02-13, version 2.1.2*

I just installed parkit to my iPhone 11 Pro but it does not appear in the list of available apps to install on my Apple Watch 5. I restarted my iPhone but that didn’t help. How do I get it installed on my watch?

### 1/5 — Yikes!

*2019-01-20, version 2.1.2*

The reviews are so glowing, so it must Erik out fine for some people. I read the directions a few weeks ago, but first tried to use it today. Apparently, no step can be omitted. I didn’t need to take a picture, but it seemed I had no choice. But it failed, saying my phone probably hadn’t given permission. It has. After that, I just went in circles trying to back out. Also, when I went to service, it said the web page had expired. How do I really use this app?

### 2/5 — Jr

*2018-09-20, version 2.1.2*

It is ok. Nothing special

### 1/5 — Tested

*2018-04-06, version 2.1.2*

I’ve been sitting inside for about an hour so I decided to test this app. Shows me that I’m in the middle of a street and maybe 100 feet away from my current location. 🤨

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work. Freezes up. TOTAL JUNK.

*2018-01-17, version 2.1.2*

I downloaded this app. It seems pretty simple. But my experience is that every page freezes. I opened the Settings page: couldn’t leave the page. None of the pages shown on the Apps description appeared. It wouldn’t restart nor could I get out of it. My only recourse was to delete it. I reinstalled it 3 times with no change. Maybe the developers haven’t updated it. Whatever, don’t waste your time Junk. It deserves a total zero, or lower.

**Developer response:** I'm sorry ParkIt did not work for you. You are correct that this app has not been updated in a while, but I do have planned a few updates shortly that will bring it into the 21st century. Hope you are able to give it another chance then!

Best,
Aleksander.

### 1/5 — Does not alert that time is up

*2017-10-04, version 2.1.2*

I got a $59 ticket because the alerts do not work.
I have made sure I have notifications turned on. I also check through the iPhone setting to make sure notifications is on.
I’m glad i didn’t have to waste money on this app. Thanks for the $59 ticket ParkIt developers!

**Developer response:** I'm terribly sorry about the ticket. While I do not know what went wrong in your specific instance, the most common causes for lacking notifications is either that the app is terminated by the user/ system, or that background location updates is turned off. 

You could also enable "static notifications", which are guaranteed to be delivered no matter what, albeit at a specific time interval before your parking expires. 

I will be making some updates to ParkIt shortly, so hope you are willing to give the app another chance then!

Best,
Aleksander.

*2017-07-21, version 2.1.2*

### 3/5 — Function works ok

*2017-07-03, version 2.1.2*
