About

Ticket · Parking Meter Timer

Read full description

You park, you tap a duration. That is all. Ticket shows the time you have left right in the Dynamic Island and on the Lock Screen, warns you before it runs out, and walks you back to your car. No account, no server, no ads. ONE TAP TO START Five durations on the home screen, each showing the end time already worked out. One tap and the countdown runs. Or tell Siri, or stick an NFC tag on your dashboard. THE TIME LEFT, WITHOUT OPENING THE APP The countdown lives in the Dynamic Island, on the Lock Screen and in your widgets. The buttons for +15 min, +30 min and Leaving are right there, on the Lock Screen and on the notification. A Control Center button starts a session without even unlocking. REMINDERS THAT GET THROUGH One reminder before the deadline, a second if you want one, one at the deadline, then a follow up if you run over. All marked time sensitive, so they break through Focus. And they work in airplane mode. FIND YOUR CAR Ticket saves the exact spot, the parking level, a note and a photo. On the way back, a compass arrow points at the car with the distance. In an underground car park with no GPS, your landmarks still show: that is exactly when you need them. YOUR HISTORY, ON YOUR PHONE Every session, the time you paid for, the time you actually used, what you spent, and how often you came back late. NOTHING LEAVES YOUR IPHONE Ticket has no server. No account, no analytics, no trackers, no ads. Your locations and photos are encrypted by iOS and excluded from iCloud backup. Only the map on the My Car screen comes from Apple Maps. ACCESSIBLE Fully compatible with VoiceOver, large text sizes and dark mode. TICKET PLUS Without a subscription, Ticket gives you five parking sessions per month, with every feature. Ticket Plus removes the limit: 2.99 EUR per month or 19.99 EUR per year, after a seven day free trial. TERMS AND PRIVACY The Ticket Plus subscription is offered monthly or yearly, with a seven day free trial. Payment is charged to your Apple account when you confirm the purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, in your Apple account settings.
