ParkGratis: Sweden parking

Parking data for all of Sweden is held on your device — search, plan ahead, see price and store markers, and switch to satellite to see the entrance before you go.

ParkGratis helps you find free parking, customer parking, and low-cost spots near any address, mall, or supermarket in Sweden.

The parking data for all of Sweden is bundled in the app — searches and spot details work right on your device, with no waiting on a server. The map itself loads over the network.

WHAT YOU GET • Colour-coded P-signs on the map: green = free, teal = store/customer parking, blue = paid, grey = unknown. Always check the sign on site. • Satellite view with high-resolution aerial imagery over 60 municipalities, so you can see the entrance, the barrier, and where the bays actually are before you set off. • Price and brand pills right on the map where the data exists (for example "25 kr/h" or the store's name). • Plan ahead: pick a start time and a minimum parking duration to filter out spots that close too soon — and get a rough cost estimate for your stay. • Can I park here? One answer for the centre of the map, weighing street rules, fee hours and prohibitions together — and it says "unknown" rather than guessing. • My car: save where you parked and find your way back. • Reminders: get a local notification before your time runs out. • Favourites plus Home/Work for quick access. • Pay shortcuts to common parking apps for paid spots. • Read the sign with the camera: point at the sign pole and it is interpreted on the phone — the picture is never uploaded. You get what the sign says in plain words with the clock, the weekday and the public holidays folded in, and whatever could not be read is shown as exactly that. An interpretation aid — the sign on the spot is what counts. • Offers at the till: where a sponsored place carries an offer, an "Använd erbjudande" (use offer) button appears. Tap it once you are there and you get a single-use code as a QR code to show the staff, who scan it. The code is valid for 15 minutes. Not every area has such places.

BUILT FOR PRIVACY No account and no sign-up. No analytics and no tracking. Your settings, searches, and saved places stay on your device.

The app may show the occasional sponsored place near where you are — or near a destination you chose. These are always labelled "Sponsrad", they never affect which car parks are listed, their order, their price, or whether they count as free — and you can switch them off in Settings. If you tap "Använd erbjudande", the app sends a random device id that is not linked to you, plus your position, which is only compared with the business's location to check that you are nearby and is not stored.

ABOUT THE DATA Street parking rules come from the municipalities' own traffic regulations as published in Svensk trafikföreskriftssamling; parking places and facilities come from OpenStreetMap. Either source may be incomplete or out of date, and a regulation can change before the app's offline dataset does, so spots show as "unknown" or "likely free" rather than a firm answer wherever the source does not settle it.
