1. [R1] PreFlight Airport Parking 2/5 · US 2 stars for the app. 5 stars for the service.: Everything about the service is great. However, the app doesn’t show my reservations. It will let me book one; but it doesn’t show up. Have to go to the site to see it. Same issue as another reviewer. Using the lookup by conf # feature, it asks me to login (even though I’m already logged in). Take me to the setting screen, then when I go back,
2. [R2] PreFlight Airport Parking 4/5 · US Great Service but the app is glitchy: Awesome service for parking and shuttle. Drivers are kinda and always help with bags. The app is a little slow and often times the reservation screen is blank after you reserve spot. Have to wait a few minutes for the email to come in for your entry bar code.
3. [R3] PreFlight Airport Parking 3/5 · US App update: Love the actual service from Preflight but the recent app update has made it 100% useless. Can’t book or view my parking pass. Must use the website now.
4. [R4] PreFlight Airport Parking 2/5 · US App is still mostly useless: I have an account and have purchased parking several times via the website while logged into my account. I’m logged into the same account on the app, but reservations booked refuse the show. I enter the confirmation number, it confirms a reservation was found, and the app asks me to log into even though I’m logged in. The next screen just randomly brings me to my setti
5. [R13] PreFlight Airport Parking 1/5 · US App doesn’t find reservation: Doesn’t show my reservation. It finds it when I search but tells me to log in. I’m already logged in. Logging out and back in didn’t work. The app is not good.
6. [R15] PreFlight Airport Parking 1/5 · US Flaky app: Routinely unable to login or have errors in app. Happens 2-3 times per year.
7. [R6] PreFlight Airport Parking 3/5 · US Slow to load: The last time I pulled my confirmation into my wallet it did not load. Had to get a ticket at check in instead.
8. [R11] PreFlight Airport Parking 5/5 · US Add to Apple wallet doesn’t work: Used to work seamlessly as of Sept 2023. Now it doesn’t
9. [R12] PreFlight Airport Parking 3/5 · US Points: I could not redeem my points on new app. Please help
10. [R23] PreFlight Airport Parking 1/5 · US No reservations: The app never saves reservations, so you have to log into the website from your phone to get the option to save a reservation to Apple Wallet. They're response is this is a "known issue" for over a year
11. [R9] PreFlight Airport Parking 3/5 · US Credit update Poor: The app does not allow you to edit or remove old cards. This feature needs to added.
12. [R55] ParkMobile 5/5 · US Best App Ever: ParkMobile app is a game changer! It has simplified parking payments. Best thing since sliced bread. Most intelligent cities employ this service so you can use it in several US areas.
13. [R58] ParkMobile 5/5 · US Great App: I find this app very helpful and convenient to use.
14. [R60] ParkMobile 4/5 · US Two hr max: Like the app. Convenient but some meters only 2 hours not so much
15. [R64] ParkMobile 5/5 · US Great: Love this app, has almost all zones covered. I use this everywhere, the best!
16. [R73] PayByPhone Parking 5/5 · US Súper bueno: Todo es fácil y rápido o mejor es económico
17. [R75] PayByPhone Parking 5/5 · US So easy!: PayByPhone makes parking so easy and affordable! Can’t beat it!!!
18. [R77] PayByPhone Parking 5/5 · US Happy Customer: Makes everything do easy! Simple to use, faster than walking from car to kiosk where I pay on the sidewalk, saving me time that I often don’t have. Love it! Many thanks for inventing this:)Customer in
19. [R80] SpotHero 5/5 · US Easy to use: This app is very convenient to find a parking space, and it is very easy to use
20. [R82] SpotHero 5/5 · US Reliable Parking App: SpotHero works exactly as intended, and I have never had any issues with the app or my reservations. Finding and booking parking is quick and convenient, and the student discount makes the already competitive rates an even better deal. It has become my go to app whenever I need parking.
21. [R86] SpotHero 5/5 · US Great value!: I always use Spot Hero to secure parking! You can’t beat the value.
22. [R90] SpotHero 5/5 · US Was able to cancel plsns changed Yes!: Was able to cancel Plans changed.
23. [R94] ParkWhiz 5/5 · US Worked great!: I just used the ParkWhiz app for the first time, for an afternoon Pittsburgh Pirates baseball game. The last time I had tickets to an afternoon Pirates game I had to park in the Strip District, because I couldn’t find any available parking in town. I used the ParkWhiz app to prepay and reserve parking in the Gateway Center Garage, an easy walk to PNC Park. It worked great!
24. [R99] ParkWhiz 5/5 · US Fantastic and easy parking app: Thank you ParkWhiz! I never thought I could love a parking app! First time using was during the NFL Draft in Pittsburgh, where parking was running $100-250 per day and in very short supply. ParkWhiz showed me a $30 security parking garage within a couple blocks of the events. ParkWhiz not only made it easy to reserve and prepay, but also added 3 hours of parking
25. [R103] ParkWhiz 5/5 · US Fast and Easy.: This is an easy app to use. Once your account is set up, you’ve added your vehicles, and you have a regular place that you like to park, it’s two clicks and you have your parking pass. It takes me 15 seconds to buy a new pass when I need one. They are also responsive to disputes or other issues.
26. [R111] Way 5/5 · US Easy to use, find what I need: I found great options for parking spaces for my travel and out of LAX airport. App is easy to use.
27. [R113] Way 5/5 · US Easy to reserve: Thanks for the reviews I was able to choose a place to park my vehicle.
28. [R7] PreFlight Airport Parking 1/5 · US buggy: rezzie wont show up despite being logged in and making the rezzie in the app. have to print out voucher or screenshot it for phone. pointless app that cant do the basics
29. [R53] ParkMobile 3/5 · US Service Fee Bad: Charging a service fee in addition to parking fee - not good. It’s not a convenience fee, it’s greed.
30. [R63] ParkMobile 2/5 · US Parking price: Way too expensive to park. !!
31. [R81] SpotHero 1/5 · US Literally paid MORE than the drive-up rate: This app isn’t what it used to be! Honestly, save yourself the headache of prepaying and just look for a spot at your destination. I used SpotHero thinking I was saving money and securing a spot for my night out in San Francisco. Huge mistake. The app charged me nearly $38, but when I showed up, the sign at the garage clearly said $25 for the day. Even t
32. [R87] SpotHero 1/5 · US Worst app ever: This app costs me money in reservation more than using the parking providers
33. [R96] ParkWhiz 1/5 · US Nightmare: I purchased the parking pass for what the app alleged was a 24 hour public lot. upon arrival the attendant refused to open the gate to the lot, he stated the lot was exclusively for monthly clients. The app does not allow you to request a refund, you must email.
34. [R98] ParkWhiz 1/5 · US Scam: They let Me book a parking spot but didn’t check that the parking lot was already completely full. Couldn’t park. Ended up showing late. Wasted gas. I tried to contact them through phone and app for a refund but they only let you speak to a simple, unhelpful bot. I had to do a charge back through my bank.
35. [R102] ParkWhiz 1/5 · US Parking is not guaranteed: I purchased a parking spot for a July 4th event, drove 1 hr to the event, parking attendant said parking is full despite me paying for my parking spot ahead in parkwhiz. Customer support won’t help with refund. I had to submit a word form for refund. Still waiting on refund.
36. [R105] ParkWhiz 1/5 · US Scam app: The parking lot I reserved was full and there was no attendant. There's no easy way to report this in the app to get a refund. Stay away from this garbage
