I have found that the Park Duluth app has saved me money, even though there is a small service fee associated with each new transaction. First, I get far fewer tickets now that I get a reminder when my parking fee is about to expire. Second, I used to pay for more time than I might need so that I didn’t have to deal with it. Now, since I can add time from anywhere, I pay for the least amount of time I might need and then add as necessity dictates.
Maybe this is a rate for the city of Duluth instead of the app itself but, I wish parking spaces didn’t have the shortest time option as 20 or 40 minutes because sometimes it is only for a 5 or a 10 minute stop. App is easy to use and quick to process your transaction.
I like that it reminds you when the session is expiring but why on earth is there not a function to prevent this from occurring at 2 in the morning?! I park in a spot regularly that gives 12 hour parking by default when you want to park for a few hours. So if I want to park at 2pm and I select the maximum (i.e. until 5:30), it gives me a 12 hour session. It's really obnoxious to be woken up at 2am by that loud honking sound. Massive oversight on the part of the app developers.
