Park’n Find, With This iPhone App You Should Never Lose Your Car Again!

February 2, 2010 by CM · View Comments 

As I get older and busier, I seem to lose my car more often than I did when I was a younger dude. Since the evolution of the iPhone and other smartphone’s most of us have inadvertently parked our car while talking on the phone. Only to come to find out that when you look for your parked car you have forgotten where it was (bummer). iPhone users rejoice, there is an app to help you prevent the above scenario called Park’n Find. This app is primarily for the iPhone 3G and 3GS. Not so much with the iPod Touch or 1st generation iPhone.

How the app works:
-open app up when you get to where you are going
-after approving location and push request tap car icon
-app will locate your car, show you and give you opportunities to type, speak, or photograph additional marker information to locate your car
-there is a wheel with additional memo reminders, such as meter time, row, section, spot, level
-press done and your spot is recorded and timer starts to keep track of how long you have been parked at the location
-once you want to return to your car, open the app and tap your saved time/date stamped spot and a map will appear and take you to your car

The app has a bunch of awesome features that make this more than an average Google Maps car locater. The map moves with you as you move (very nice) and you can zoom/pan the map. There are push notifications for meter reminders and parking lot time reminders. By far the single best iPhone parking locater app in the iTunes App Store.

additional features:
-app designed for 1 hand use
-GPS approximates location to street address, very, very cool
-user interface extremely friendly
-and more

Park’n Find for the iPhone is very reasonably priced at $1.99 and gets 5 out of 5 Crazy
