If you are regular in London, you’ll know how difficult it can be finding a suitable parking space. The new iparkmycar App for iPhone and iPod Touch is designed to take out the stress from the experience so you can get on your way hassle free.
The app uses the iPhone’s GPS capabilities to help users make informed decisions on where to park by showing every option, whether
it’s a car park, on street or Pay and Display, plus the relevant costs, revealing parking hidden gems and helping to make finding a parking space that much easier.
iparkmycar gives Londoners and those visiting the city the inside track on how to be one step ahead of the parking wardens. Wherever you are in London, iparkmycar shows the closest car parks and residential parking zones (know as Controlled Parking Zones, or CPZs) which can also have a pay and display option. Often, council car parks and CPZs are only patrolled during certain hours which vary from borough to borough and zone to zone, but iparkmycar will indicate when the parking wardens clock off so that you can take advantage of the free parking on offer.
The app was created by Chris Bocsardy, a frustrated Londoner who was beginning to question why he bothered with his car in London after receiving one parking ticket too many. Chris was motivated to create a solution to his parking nightmares and painstakingly compiled information on over 1000 car parks and residential parking zones throughout Greater London.
iparkmycar is available for iPhone and iPod touch on the iPhone App Store at an introductory price of £1.79 (£2.39 normal price). Every borough in Greater London is covered and there are already plans for more versions of the App covering different cities around the world.
