Parkmobile for Android
Makes the nightmare of parking easy and simple.
It works. Its not clear that you have to de-select all notifications to be charged at the meter rate (if you don't, it is more expensive). Would be nice if you had a 'favourites' rather than selecting the same details each day.
It lets you save American Express however doesn't allow it to be charged. Moreover it provides a vague error message. It doesn't validate car rego. I entered the wrong rego by mistake, missed one letter, and got a parking fine.
I've tried to extend parking remotely but ended up booking parking for the next day. You cannot delete or stop future bookings! Ended up paying for car parking when I wasn't even there.
Terrible. Most of the time the meter code is not recognised by the app and you cant use it to pay. When you can get it to work, the allowable time doesnt match the street signs?? Meters wont print a receipt so im stuck using this piece of rubbish app to claim expenses...
I use it a couple times a week and it has always worked okay for me. It's simple and pretty user friendly. Nothing amazing or fwncy
Charges more than normal parking rates. Fails credit card auto pay almost always and has issues closing precious parking.
Terrible app. It's clunky, misleading, and terribly designed. For example, they assign you a pin code, you don't get to choose. To make matters worse, you can't even change it. As if someone is going to remember an arbitrary pin code on the off occasion they use this abominable app.
Works easily. Good experience. No real problems. Crashes a bit too often, but no data loss. Ctashed have been fixed. Good work.
I used several times without any hickup. Still can be economical if extra charges of sms is not added.
A calendar date picker to choose the expiry of a credit card? You have to scroll severely years into the future one month at a time.
Give a note on the extra fee for sms warnings or how to save by removing these options. I know a number of people that were not using this app because they thought the parking cost was higher but it was just that sms fees
Who was the clown that updated the security login - its a parking app it doesn't need to be complex. No common sense by the app designer
Can only park for full hours, not half or quarter hour periods. Would be good if you could choose by cost or time: eg I want to park for as long as I can for $5
I love it, works perfectly for me. Would love if there was a monthly or full history button or spreadsheet function so that we could add up parking easily for tax purposes.
Really easy to use and so much quicker than waiting to pay at the parking metre. I also really like that I only have to pay for the time I actually park rather than trying to estimate how much time I will need
Bloody hopeless with a randomly generated pin that I've already forgotten and no opportunity to change it
Easy to use and saves me heaps of time because I'm not waiting at the parking meter to get a ticket!
Charges you 25c for a text message just to use the app to pay. Get stuffed
So much better than waiting in line at the pay machines. Quick, easy, I use it every day.
This has been too long coming. Thank god it's finally here.
So much better than having to go to yhe meter to extend your piad parking!
So nice being able to pay for parking while the other suckers line up at a pay station!
Either the worst app or the parking companies the developers deal with are showing their true colours. Not all parking meters work with the code on their sticker and most often when I pay for 9 hours of parking it immediately says I have 8.5 hours remaining - great maths there guys. Also there is no difference with the cost of paying 5 hours or 9 hours. Basically it's just a money grabbing app and is in line with the scummy parking companies who overcharge for nothing but their own greed.
Australian number plates have exactly six numbers /letters. This app fails to enforce this and because I had accidentally only 5 of the 6 figures of my number plate in it, I got a parking fine even though I had paid for my parking. Poor design. It also won't let you change the details for your car for many hours after you finish a parking session so if you make an error you can't fix it.
Absolutely useless that you can't change your rego on your current session without directly emailing the company! The app errors, the website errors and the number your company says to text isn't even a valid number in Australia! But love how u put the disclaimer that it's not your fault if I get booked while I wait for a manual service to fix such a critical factor!
Used it for a while. It is pretty rubbish. But I had a communication error a couple of months ago which told me to 'try again later' I did but got a fine before it worked again. I protested the fine but apparently the payment system not working is not a valid reason for not paying for parking. So now I am out of pocket 108 bucks because this app didn't work.
I have had no problems using this app, it did crash once but that's not a big deal. I drive multiple vehicles and park in a variety of different parks. Will always choose ParkMobile over a regular ticket machine.
App says the banks declined all THREE of my Credit Cards, but I could pay at the meter no issues with the first card I used. The app is garbage and a total waste of time.
You are better of paying at the paystation in the carpark the app charges more for less parking time.
It won't accept my details or let me reset my password. Galaxy S7 edge.
It doesn't even let me register for the app through my android. Assume it's because my number plate is letters and only 5 of them! So i don't even get the opportunity to gripe about the bugs!!!
Very handy once set up. Crashes occasionally
App is well set out. Repeat parking is 2-3 steps. Super quick. No issues after a few weeks of use.
Easy and convenient though would like to see an ' all day ticket' option for those places where its an option
It would be nice to pay for longer than 1 day. Instead we have to go to the shop front or buy online from the govt.
Mostly great, but this morning I had to reset my PIN. The website took forever and ever.
30 minute increments do not match 20 min increments on parking meter station
Uncluttered, does the job simply and quickly. That is all I need
