Retrouver voiture & Place

Locate Car & Space
Find my car in 2 clicks and easily find an available space near you.

Find Car & Space is a smart app that combines two functions into one:

1️⃣ Find your parked car with precise guidance (Google Maps, Waze, or integrated pedestrian guidance)
2️⃣ Find an available space near you with a real-time community system

🚗 Main Features

Find my car: automatically records your vehicle's location and launches pedestrian guidance to return.

Find a space: view available spaces posted by other users nearby (green icons).

Community sharing: when you leave, the app automatically notifies nearby drivers that a space is about to become available.

Real-time ETA: users see the estimated arrival time of the person who frees the space (notification updated at ~3 min, 2 min, 1 min).

Top Driver Rankings: Earn points for every shared spot and climb into the top 20 of the Leaderboard!

Custom Username: Set your name to be visible in the rankings or let the app generate one automatically.

Public Parking: Automatically displays nearby parking spaces (P icons) if no shared spots are available.

Optimized Navigation: Automatically switches between OpenRouteService and OSRM for the best route.

Smart Arrival Guidance: Background service and geofence that reopen the app and display an alert ~25 m from the destination.

SMART Map Rotation: The map smoothly follows your orientation, with several modes to choose from (North Up, Heading Up, Auto).

Battery Protection (Huawei, Xiaomi, etc.): The app requests exemption from optimizations to remain active during guidance.

AdMob ads: discreet banner + interstitial and rewarded ads at moderate frequency, with a cooldown to avoid disrupting navigation.
