Ratings and reviews

This app used to be super easy and reliable. For the last couple weeks, however, it hasn't worked. I've uninstalled/reinstalled multiple times. Things look normal when I open the app at home (outside the city) but when I try to park in Albany I'm no longer logged in and it doesn't recognize my log in info. Very frustrating. Hope it gets fixed.

This app has literally made my work days so much easier. I drive to different locations throughout the city all day and dealing with meters has always been annoying. Also, I can easily submit receipts for reimbursement now, which I never bothered doing before because of the hassle. LOVE THIS APP!

I use this app every day to park in front of my business. Does not alert me when I'm almost out of time. I cannot change zones if I need to run to the bank. You'll get ticketed during 10 minute lockout periods if you forget to add money to your meter. My app must have crashed as I added money today so I still got a $40 ticket.
