The pioneering system in Portugal offers drivers the fastest and easiest solution to pay for parking using their cell phone or tablet, without the need to use coins or go to the parking meter. With the 'Start and Stop' feature, the driver can start and stop the parking period at any time, and only pays for the time the vehicle has actually been parked. The application also offers a pay-per-time mode, in which the driver specifically indicates how long he/she wants to park, and will be alerted each time the parking period is nearing its end, so that he/she can then extend the parking period.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
EVIO holds the better App Store score, 3.7 against 1.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: iParque Driver has 20 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 6% of iParque Driver's written reviews are positive against 0% of EVIO's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
iParque Driver ships an update monthly, EVIO fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on July 28, 2026 and September 17, 2026 respectively.
