Ratings and reviews

Downloaded the app, but it won't take any form of payment. I tried 3 different credit cards, including Google payments. Took about 10 minutes of fumbling before I just paid by card at the meter. What a world app, when there is always an error adding a payment method. Had a 2nd person try too...same issue. I think the app is dead.

App refuses to allow users to not use Wi-Fi scanning. We can see the zone numbers and type them in manually, so WiFi scanning is utterly unnecessary. The popup to refuse granting that permission is impossible to dismiss if a user tries to decline this "feature". They claim it's for a "better user experience", when it is in fact the opposite. Immensely frustrating, and is something I flagged to their support team a year ago, and still no change.

Actual malware/adware. Not only is it massively inconvenient, forgets all of your data at random, and doesn't integrate with actual payment platforms (meaning on top of re-entering vehicle info, you also have to re-enter payment info), but it then pesters you with ads and pesters you to allow notifications, so they can show you MORE ads. Next time I see a parking lot with their sign up, I'll skip it and drive to the next one
