Parker app
Overall Auto Express rating

3.0

This innovative free app has real promise. It shows the number of empty bays on a nearby street, and gives you the price. You can pay via your mobile, set a reminder for the ticket’s expiry time and get directions back to your car. It only works in Birmingham for now, but is set to expand.
