Welcome to Parking Mobility: the #1 app to report disabled parking abuse! Report disabled parking abuse to your city in less than two minutes. When you see a vehicle parked illegally, simply launch Parking Mobility, take 3 photos and submit. We tell the city and they ticket the vehicle’s owner. You help improve accessibility in your community and support people with disabilities. The data you help us generate helps demonstrate the worldwide problem of accessible parking abuse and helps us provide the most effective program to end abuse in your community. You can also share, find and suggest accessible parking locations anywhere in the world.

As you and your friends and neighbors use Parking Mobility, more spots will be show up and your community will become more easily accessible. You can share the locations of accessible spots in less than 30 seconds, allowing others in your community to more easily find accessible parking.

FlockHopper shows you where license plate reader cameras are and routes around them. Every camera in the Deflock/OpenStreetMap database is on the map. Ask for directions and you get two routes — the fastest and one that avoids known cameras. Alerts warn you when one is nearby, whether you're navigating or just driving. Most of the app is free: directions, turn by turn navigation, camera alerts, background detection, CarPlay, Live Activity, Free Drive, saved places, Siri Shortcuts, , the full camera map, and in-app OpenStreetMap editing. Users that upgrade to FlockHopper Pro get custom alert tones and timing, exposure stats, multi-stop routing, longer routes, offline maps, extra map styles, and live traffic. No ads, no analytics, no trackers, no data sales. Route requests go to FlockHopper's own servers, and nothing is logged. Built by the developer behind maps.deflock.org, working closely with the DeFlock community on camera data. One person, no investors. There is a Tip Jar if you want to support the project. It doesn't unlock anything. Camera data is crowdsourced by DeFlock and the OpenStreetMap community. Coverage varies and won't always be current. FlockHopper reduces your exposure to surveillance networks but doesn't eliminate it. Drive safely. Not affiliated with or sponsored by any surveillance vendor.
