Honk is an App that saves you from another parking ticket with a swipe of your finger.

Simply swipe your finger across the meter to set how long you plan to park. As you quit Honk, it will mark your parking location on the map, and when the time comes to head back to your car, it will honk you. On your home screen, its icon will also display the remaining minutes. Just a quick glance, you can go back to your important conversation with a peaceful mind! It even features sync alarm/gps between your iPhone, iPad and even Macs via your cloud-shared Calendar!

Have you ever forgotten where you parked, and embarrassed yourself on the wrong floor, while your family had to follow you along one painful step after another. During winter in Boston? Overcomplicated controls in most apps make you feel like you are trying to heist a federal bank?

Use Honk's simple note pad to scribble down your spot, in a language of your choice, using the most trusted tool you have: your index finger. It also allows you to take a snapshot of your spot and superimpose the photo on your handwritten memo.

User Reviews

Many users praise Honk for being easy to use and a handy, money-saving timer for parking, with some appreciating the new step-by-step guidance. However, the app suffers from serious reliability and maintenance problems: frequent crashes, outdated status, compatibility issues with latest iOS versions, a confusing UI, inconsistent time/GPS accuracy, and limited developer support. Overall, it’s useful in principle but plagued by bugs and stagnation.

  • Life saver for parking that helps avoid tickets and saves money
  • Quick and intuitive alarm/timer feature that’s easy to operate
  • Daily-use utility for parking and reminders across many situations
  • New version adds step-by-step instructions and improved guidance
Cons

  • Not updated in years and compatibility with newer iPhone/iOS versions is poor
  • Poor, confusing, and non-intuitive user interface that’s hard to learn
  • Inaccurate countdown times and GPS/location data, leading to unreliable parking timing
  • Lack of developer support or slow/no responses to user inquiries and issues
