Out of town, borrowed car (Volkswagon Beetle), rush into a busy shopping to pee: the perfect storm to lose a vehicle. Nope, this app WORKS.
★★★★★
Good, but could use polishing This app. fills in the blanks with GPS supported tools to help me remember where I parked on a daily basis. Very handy. Future updates should include the ability to share parking location with other contacts (spouse, family, roommate, etc.).
★★★★★
Useful app I use this app regularly. Does what it says. 4 stars because it requires data use to load map images instead of using google maps. Droid Incredible.

As best as can be expected Here's the thing - the GPS services available to consumers is not pinpoint accuracy. So, this app, much like many other GPS apps, will get you close to where you need to be, but not the exact spot. That being said, that's not a problem with this app - that's just the nature of using GPS. This app is ideal for theme park parking lots, or if you're parking somewhere in the city and heading far away. It will get you close enough to your car to spot it on your own.

Great app I have been using this app for over a year. It has led me to my car many times and kept me from many tickets from the meter maids. :-)
★★☆☆☆
Too much battery use This single app was using 4% battery even though I was not using. Sorry, u gotta go
★★☆☆☆
Works pretty well but doesn't close on exit I really wanted to love this app. It was a good way to ping my car when I couldn't remember where I parked, and the navigation works pretty well. Also, when you touch the flag, it asks you if you're at a meter or if you're in a free spot, which is a good feature. However, I have to un-install this app and get a different one because (minor issue) 1) like someone else on this board, I wish it had custom timers for parking meters, and (MAJOR issue) 2) it doesn't have an "exit" feature, so the only way to turn the app off is to power down the phone and reboot it. Too much trouble.
