Ever wandered a parking garage for 20 minutes wondering where you left your car? ParkPin is your personal parking spot saver — tap once when you park, and it drops a GPS pin at your exact location, snaps a photo of your surroundings, and starts a meter countdown timer. When you're ready to leave, one tap navigates you directly back to your car.
Save your parking spot in seconds
ParkPin makes it effortless to save your parking location with GPS precision. The moment you step out of your car, open ParkPin and tap Save. Your exact coordinates are pinned on a map so you always know where your car is — even in multi-level garages, crowded urban streets, or massive airport lots where GPS can be tricky.
Never get a parking ticket again
Set a parking meter countdown timer that matches your meter — 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, or any custom duration. ParkPin alerts you at 15 minutes, 5 minutes, and the moment your meter expires, giving you plenty of time to get back before the fine hits.
Navigate back to your car with confidence
When it's time to leave, ParkPin gives you turn-by-turn walking directions from wherever you are straight to your saved parking location. No more wandering, no more guessing. See your distance and estimated walk time at a glance.
Snap a photo to remember where you parked
Snap up to 3 photos per session — a parking sign, a nearby landmark, your spot number. When GPS signal is weak in underground garages, your parking photos serve as a visual backup to find your car fast.
Built for every parking situation
Whether you're parallel parking downtown, navigating a sprawling airport lot, or finding a spot at the mall during the holidays, ParkPin works as your car locator in any environment. It also keeps a parking history log so you can revisit frequent spots or track parking for work expenses.
Why drivers choose ParkPin
Google Maps has a buried "Save parking" feature — but no meter timer, no photo capture, and no reminder alerts. Dedicated parking payment apps focus on reservations, not the "remember where I parked" problem. ParkPin does exactly one thing and does it exceptionally well. Open the app, tap once, done.
