 App: BestParking by BestParking.com
For: iPhones and Android phones
Price: Free
Anyone who has ever driven in San Francisco, or any city for that matter, knows how difficult it is to find parking. Free parking is virtually non-existent, while parking garages and parking lots can be complicated to locate as well as exorbitantly expensive. For example, parking in downtown San Francisco from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. on a weekday can range from $10 to $61 depending on where you park. How is one supposed to locate not only a convenient parking place, but, one that is reasonably priced? Simple. Download and install the free parking locator app called BestParking. Using the GPS in your phone, this app will quickly find the most convenient parking garages or lots that also offer the best prices. Users of this app especially like its ability to locate lots and garages that are hidden from the street. The app also gives you information about the parking facility, including the phone number, hours of operation, whether it is indoors or outdoors, cash or credit, and valet or self-parking. BestParking's search engine can find you the best parking in North America, in 85 different cities. It also has parking information for the best airport parking lots at 115 airports. This is an app that not only saves you time and aggravation, but can also save you dollars.
