Winner of the HTC Android Developers Contest.
Lifehacker.com - "The Best Android Apps for Your Car"
Gizmodo.com - "Best Apps for Drivers", Silver medal.

Features:
- Show parking places in your area;
- Save car location (GPS or manual);
- Get walking directions to your car;
- Car locator/finder (compass);
- Show map/satellite;
- Parking meter alarm;
- Show parking areas find via internet;
- Show just released/open parking spots.

Please make sure that GPS is ENABLED! Keep in mind it is highly unlikely that your phone will get fine GPS signal inside any buildings, including a house or parking garage. It's a limitation of GPS itself. In this case you can set location manually.

Permission to send SMS is needed to allow use of parking services which paid through sending SMS when the user wants it and it is supported in his country. As for now such service is supported only for users in Ukraine via "516.com.ua". Unfortunately, there is no way in Android Market to point that such permissions needed only for users in certain country.

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.

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.

Quite good, but map loads kinda slow.

Easy to mess up. I accidentally deleted my park position. Couldn't find my car in airport carpark. Plus cannot delete from database entered in error.

I'm driving only when abroad so offline functionality would be a must for this ...
