ParkOut is a user-driven app in which drivers share their parking locations and times when they plan to leave their spots, so that other drivers can see when and where parking spots would become available. When a driver approached his/her car, their cars icon on the map becomes progressively greener. Driver cannot see each others locations, only the locations of other drivers cars. Drivers can send anonymous push notifications to request the driver of a particular car to update when he/she is planning to leave their parking spot.
-Automatically store and navigate to your parking location
*GPS location sharing is required to use the app. Continued use of GPS signal significantly affects battery life.
*Internet connection is required.
