## Review summary

ParkZen helps users find parking faster on busy campuses (notably LSU) using heat maps and a car locator, and it saves time by reducing circling. However, reviews repeatedly cite onboarding confusion, crashes, and intrusive permission requests, plus excessive notifications and occasional data inaccuracy. The concept is strong and particularly valuable on campus, but the app needs polish, fewer prompts, and more reliable performance to meet user expectations.

### Pros

- Saves time by quickly locating parking in crowded areas, especially on campus
- Provides heat maps of lot occupancy to show where spots are likely available
- Includes a parked car locator with walking directions back to your car
- Helpful on college campuses and for events, reducing circling and delays
- As the user base grows, real-time data and coverage improve the app's usefulness

### Cons

- Onboarding and setup are not intuitive, with many steps before reaching parking options
- App crashes or won’t open, with frequent bugs impacting usability
- Requests many permissions and requires sign-in (Google/Apple), raising privacy concerns
- Push notifications can be excessive and annoying for everyday use
- Occasionally data is inaccurate or parking history is limited, reducing trust in availability
