Polly will surprise you with finding an ideal parking spot. - For me, only carparks The supply of carparks in Polly is large and rich thanks to a foot mapping process carried out by its ground crew. You can ask Polly to list the details of all the carparks in your target area, and a navigation route to the selected parking lot. At any stage, you can change and choose another parking lot. אנחנו יודעים שחניה היא משימה מתסכלת ולא פשוטה. ובדיוק בשביל זה הגיעה פולי לעולם. הוריד את פולי ותתחיל לחסוך כסף, זמן והרבה תסכול. אז מי זאת פולי ? פולי היא פיית חניה שיודעת לנווט אותך למקום חניה בקרבת היעד שלך .היא מכירה את כל החניונים בעיר ואת כל הרחובות בהם ניתן למצוא, בכל שעה, חניה מעולה. היא כל מה שצריך כדי להחנות מכונית בעיר עמוסה. פשוט, הורד ותנסה אותה ! איך זה עובד ? עם הקלדת כתובת ,יוצגו לבחירתך, אפשרויות למציאת חניה בעיר. יש לבחור את האפשרות המועדפת עליך, ופולי כבר תנווט אותך למקום חניה . לתשומת ליבך,במהלך הניווט לחיפוש חניה ברחוב, יוצגו סימנים המציגים האם החניה מותרת לך ואת מרחק ההליכה שלך ליעד . וכן, היא מאפשרת תשלום על חניה והיא זוכרת איפה חנית. אתה כבר שם? הגעת ליעד - בלחיצה אחת על פולי, יוצג מסך עם המלצת החניה של פולי ואפשרויות נוספות למציאת חניה נוחה סביב מיקומך הנוכחי. מסלול לחניה ברחוב, חניונים והסברים. כל מה שנשאר לך הוא לבחור את האפשרות המועדפת עליך וללחוץ סע . פולי כבר תפתיע אותך במציאת חניה חלומית.
