Ratings and reviews

For pulling up to a space and parking, it's a good app. It seems to have a feature that you could pay for parking in the future (which would be amazing because parking starts at 7, and well, I'm not always up by 7) designated by a button that says "upcoming" and the ability to choose different days and times, but this feature does not work, and the next screen consistently took me to a screen for the current date and time to "confirm" that I wanted to choose that time.

A confusing app. Only thing that would make it okay is if you had the ability to search by zone, but when you open it, you get all these pins so close together that you have sift through in order to find the right zone to pay for. The old app, It was just straight to the point, we don't need a stupid map when when have a zone sign in front of us. If I didn't have to down load it to park, I would have stuck with the old version instead.

Okay, when it works, which is rarely. The old app was fine and easier to use. This one pulls up pins that are numbered differently than the sign in standing next to. It frequently says "unavailable, check internet connection" despite me having an excellent cell signal. So I get 4 charges on my credit and it doesn't even create a parking session! I had to have a friend pay for me. And 3 kiosks I went to wouldn't turn on either. This feels like a scam....
