User Reviews

Users find Park Evanston convenient when it works, offering a faster alternative to meters and a wallet option. The dominant feedback is reliability issues: payment processing failures, login problems, and wallet/account instability. Support is often described as unhelpful or slow, with reports of duplicate charges and confusing fees. Overall sentiment is that the app is useful in theory but plagued by maintenance and support gaps.

Pros

Convenient way to pay for parking via the app instead of using meters
Reduces need for change by avoiding coins (compared to meters)
Wallet feature can speed transactions when functioning
Overall ease of use when the app is working

Cons

Frequent payment processing failures, network errors, and card declines
Sign-in/login issues and app instability (e.g., sign-in page with no submit button)
Poor or unresponsive customer support and ignored tickets
Wallet/account migration issues and funds disappearing or being inaccessible
Duplicate charges and other billing/fee concerns (convenience/service fees)

Recent reviews

Let’s be clear—anywhere that thinks they’re special enough to have their own individual parking app is awful, but this was additionally bad as it was for a spot that only lets you park for 30 minutes. And I had to wait several minutes to download it, and then it wouldn’t take Apple Pay or anything more secure than having to copy one’s card information on the street. Bring back parking meters. Better yet, just let people park for 30 minutes.
