Park on a street that gets swept, record the schedule from the posted sign once, and get an alert in time to move your car. HOW IT WORKS 1. Read the posted sign. Photograph it and the app fills in a draft, or type it in yourself. 2. Confirm it. You check every field before it saves. 3. Get warned before the sweeper comes: 30 minutes, an hour, two hours or a day ahead. Add a heads-up the evening before, and a nudge if you have not opened the app since the warning. WE NEVER TELL YOU WHAT THE SIGN SAYS A schedule guessed from city data can be wrong, and a wrong answer here is a ticket on your windshield, so this app does not give answers. The camera and the map fill in a draft; you confirm it; the posted sign is always the authority. ANY STREET, ANY US CITY The schedule comes from the sign in front of you, so the app works anywhere in the United States. If you park in San Francisco, you can also look your block up in the city's published sweeping schedule as a starting point — still as a draft you confirm. BOTH SIDES OF THE STREET North side Tuesday, south side Thursday is one reminder, not two. WHAT YOU GET - Weekly, monthly ("2nd and 4th Tuesday") and one-time schedules - The warning arrives as a Time Sensitive notification, so it can get through a Focus - An optional heads-up the evening before, at the time you choose - An optional nudge if you have not opened the app after the warning - An optional note when the window you recorded ends - Seasonal schedules, for cities that pause sweeping over winter - Name each spot ("Home", "Work", "Maple St") and note which car it is for - Skip a week when your car is parked somewhere else - An estimate of the tickets you have avoided, from the fine you enter (you can hide it) - A guide to what each curb paint color means - Light and dark themes PRIVACY No account, no sign-up, no location, no ads. Your reminders stay on your phone. Sign photos are read on the device and never uploaded. San Francisco schedules come from the City and County of San Francisco's Street Sweeping Schedule on DataSF. Street Cleaning Reminder is independent and not affiliated with any government agency. Free. No ads, no subscription, no paywalled reminders.
