Say 'Goodbye' to Parking Tickets -- forever! >> Winner: "Most Useful App" award at iPhoneDevCamp '09 <<
AutoPark turns your iPhone/iPod Touch into an essential driving companion, featuring: parking meter timer alerts w/ push notifications, GPS-based car finder, parking-lot position reminders, text and image notes, rich email sharing, and nearby local services (banks, bathrooms, gas stations--more coming soon).
If you drive a car then you'll want AutoPark. Use it once and you'll never want to drive without it again. It'll make you love your iPhone that much more.
Details:
- Meter Timer: AutoPark keeps track of time remaining on your parking meter so you can get back before you get a ticket. Get early-warning alarms so you can make it back to your car in time. No more wondering how many minutes left. Let your iPhone save you money for a change.
- Car-finder: Place a marker on a map where you parked your car, then easily find your way back with the iPhone's built-in GPS.
- Parking Lots: Forgot where you parked in a big shopping mall or multi-story lot? No problem. With a few taps keep track of parking lot name, slot number, floor, color code, or section. No more wandering around lots carrying heavy bags.
- Keep Notes and Photos: Write a note or use the iPhone's camera to take a picture and remind yourself where you parked. Also handy for remembering what your rental car looks like.
- Pre-paid Machines: Supports both time elapsed (i.e. 60m left) and clock time (i.e. valid until 11:30am) printed on tags from pre-paid ticket machines.
- Nearby Services: Long drive ahead? Get a list of nearby services on a map before you take off. Current release ships with one-tap search for:
- Banks
- Gas Stations
- Public Bathrooms
Many more services coming soon as updates.
- Push Notification Alerts: Get alarms even when running another app or if your phone is buried in your pocket or purse. With sound, vibration, and text alerts there's no way to miss it.
- Email: Send a formatted email message from AutoPark with all your parking data, including embedded map and attached picture. Great when sharing a vehicle or when leaving the car at the airport for a long trip.
- Built-in Help: Comes with full built-in help for every feature. Still have questions and need to get in touch? Send tech support messages directly from inside the app.
- Graphics: Beautiful, efficient 'one-look' user interface helps you quickly see everything you need to know on a single screen. And no feature is more than three taps away. Optimized to be simple and easy-to-use.
- Use with your car or motorcycle, RV, car-share service (e.g. City CarShare or ZipCar), or travel rental.
- Practically pays back for itself the first time you make it back to your car on time and avoid a ticket.
An essential companion for anyone who drives.

Please note: features requiring GPS, phone, or camera will only work on the iPhone. The iPod Touch does not have the necessary hardware. However, iPod Touches can still be used for tracking meter times and parking lot reminders. Maps, email, push notifications, and nearby services will require WiFi access.
