User Reviews

Users praise Parknav for ease of use and a color-coded map that highlights parking availability, with Chicago as a strong positive. However, repeated complaints focus on paywalls, limited city coverage, and data reliability issues, along with some UI concerns. It may help in select areas, but is not consistently reliable or affordable for broader use.
Pros
  • Easy to use with fast loading.
  • Color-coded street parking map showing availability (green/orange/red).
  • Effective for finding street parking in supported cities, notably Chicago, making it a go-to app there.
  • Some users describe it as a lifesaver/timesaver for locating spots.
  • Often viewed as providing better results than other parking apps.
Cons
  • Paywall and lack of a free trial to test features; core functionality behind a subscription.
  • Limited coverage area; many major cities are not supported or have only small sections (e.g., downtown Manhattan, River North Chicago).
  • Data reliability issues; parking data may be incomplete or inaccurate and it can be unclear if a spot is actually open.
  • Poor UI at times and missing legend, confusing navigation.

I don’t think I’ve seen a worse app in a very long time. The data isn’t there. There’s no legend. The options of park near me or park near destination don’t really work. I downloaded it to find street parking and it made me pay for the app - which I did, but the app is utterly useless. Save your money, don’t bother with this app!

I downloaded Parknav hoping it would help with finding street parking in Brooklyn and queens, but I couldn’t even test it out without immediately being forced to pay $4.99/month. That makes no sense how am I supposed to know if it’s even worth it? Something told me to check the reviews, and sure enough, a lot of people said it barely works in NYC and only covers certain parts of Manhattan. Total waste of time….

Poor UI paired with unreliable parking data makes for a bad app
