PPPark!: Your Guide to Affordable Parking
PPPark! is a convenient Android app designed to help you locate the cheapest metered parking near your destination. Say goodbye to expensive parking hassles!
Addressing Android 11 Launch Issues:
Some users with Android 11 devices have reported app crashes upon launch. A workaround involves clearing the app's storage. Note: This will erase your parking history, which cannot be recovered. To clear storage:
- Open "Settings."
- Go to "Apps and Notifications."
- Select "PP Park!" from the app list.
- Access "Storage and Cache."
- Tap "Erase Storage."
Google is aware of this Android 11-related bug, and a fix is anticipated from Google and device manufacturers. However, similar issues persist globally. We apologize for any inconvenience.
PPPark! Features:
-
Smart Pricing: Input your desired parking timeframe (e.g., "Today, 2 PM to 7 PM"), and PPPark! automatically calculates and displays parking options in ascending price order. Daily maximum charges are also considered.
-
Easy Navigation: Seamless integration with Google Maps, Yahoo! Maps, and NaviCon ensures effortless navigation to your chosen parking spot.
-
Comprehensive Parking Options: Includes listings for reservation-based parking (Akippa, Special P, TOHOGAS parking – Okazaki city only) and street parking (Tokyo, Kanagawa, Osaka). Street parking is depicted on the map with light green lines and circles. Remember: Street parking has time limits; exceeding them results in a parking violation.
-
User-Contributed Parking Data: Help us keep the information up-to-date! Report unregistered, incorrectly priced, or closed parking lots. (Note: Android 10 and later versions do not retain previously submitted data due to system changes.)
-
Simple Usage:
- Locate your destination on the map.
- Set your parking arrival and departure times.
- Tap the magnifying glass icon (bottom right) to begin your search.
- Results are displayed on the map, ordered from cheapest to most expensive.
Important Considerations:
-
Accuracy: While we strive for accuracy, always verify pricing and other information at the parking lot itself. We cannot guarantee complete accuracy of all parking data.
-
Permissions: The app requires WiFi and Bluetooth permissions for precise location services.
-
Google Play Developer Services: Required for Android 4.0 and higher.
