Alternate: NYC Parking

Know exactly when your car must move. Choose the exact side of the street for a trustworthy deadline, then protect your active car with a free reminder.

Know exactly when your car must move. Alternate turns the exact curb and side you choose into a clear move-by deadline without pretending the posted sign does not matter.

Save your active car and get one free reminder 45 minutes before it must move. Explore nearby parking signs, filter curbs by whether parking appears available now, and open any sign to see the posted schedule.

KEEP YOUR CAR CLEAR

See your active car’s move-by countdown, parked location, rule status, and reminder together. Alternate+ adds multiple vehicles and keeps each one in its own clear view.

CHECK THE CURB

• View posted parking rules around New York City • Filter for curbs that appear available or restricted • See explicit status text, not color alone • Review the full posted-rule schedule before parking • Fall back safely to “Check the posted sign” when data is unclear

REMEMBER WHERE YOU PARKED

• Choose the parking spot directly on the map • Keep the exact blockface when parking from a curb result • Jump back to any parked car from the map • Use Shortcuts for quick access • Add Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets with Alternate+

MOVE ON TIME

Free includes one reminder for your active car. Alternate+ protects multiple cars and unlocks configurable reminder timing and widgets. Monthly, annual, and lifetime options are shown in the app. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled in Apple Account settings.

BUILT FOR PRIVACY

Alternate does not require an account. Vehicle details and parked spots stay on your device. Optional product analytics is off by default, excludes location and vehicle details, and can be enabled or disabled in Settings.

Alternate uses NYC Open Data. Parking guidance is informational and may be incomplete, delayed, or incorrect. Temporary restrictions may not appear. Always inspect the posted sign and curb before leaving your vehicle.
