About this app

SMS Parking is an app that allows you to pay public parking easily with features like detecting your location and sending the appropriate short text message (SMS) to the corresponding service number. Granting permission to read incoming messages from the parking service enables the extension of parking for an additional period and the ability to stop an ongoing parking session in selected cities.

MULTIPLE CAR PROFILES
Create a profile for each one of your cars and send parking messages with a single tap. Additionally, you can schedule sending a SMS at a specified time (up to 24h ahead).*

AUTOMATIC ZONE SUGGESTION
Available parking zones are suggested automatically, based on your location. Parking position is detected and displayed on the map in the application along with the nearby parking zone bounds.†

OVER-THE-AIR UPDATES
Support for More than 200 cities in over 15 countries across Europe and counting. Automatic parking service message recognition and zones with sessions (Start/Stop) are supported in selected cities.‡

DUAL-SIM SUPPORT
Select from which SIM card to send messages on dual SIM devices. The app will remember your preference for each one of your cars.

Ratings and reviews

I do enjoy the app, but I don't find history of my sent SMSs. My phone operator charged me for a certain amount for SMS sent and I could not verify how many times I've used the app in that period. In same respect, if the app glitches at a point I could have paid the fee via SMS through it, but not have a proof at my disposal (at any given moment..). Could this be improved? Thank you,

Life saving application for parking, especially in areas where it is not very clear what kind of zone it is. Just 2 clicks and I'm ready with the payment! I'm also very happy with the option for having more than one car in the list, since I change often the car I drive.

Overall is a very good application, but has one major flaw - it does not update zones automatically. Instead you need to check manually and updated them manually which is ridiculous. This year I have been already fined twice due to changes in the zones from green to blue in Sofia.
