Frequently Asked Questions

How does the app find available parking spots on campus?

The app crowdsources parking lot occupancy data from users to provide real-time estimates of how busy lots are. This data is then used to direct users to less busier parking lots.

Can I reserve parking spots in advance through the app?

No, the app does not support parking spot reservations. URI does not offer parking spot reservations using any system at this time. However, using the URI Parking Services integration, you can purchase a day permit, or request a visitor permit.

Does the app offer parking suggestions based on my current location?

Yes, the app displays the distance to each parking lot from your current location, helping you find the closest lots to you.

Does the app have a feature for finding my parked car after I've left it?

Yes, the app has a feature that allows you to save your parked car's location and navigate back to it later. This can help you navigate busier lots straight to your car.

Can I set preferences for parking?

You can choose whether you are a student or faculty member within the app.
