Parking in a city can be a difficult task. For a while, there have been apps that help drivers navigate, and now there are a few tools to help them park.
ParkWhiz is an app that lets users book a space in advance. Enter a destination and available spaces and their prices will pop up.
Parker, another app, simply gives users detailed informations on parking garages and street spots near your destination. It doesn't guarantee a spot, but users armed with this information just might be able to find one quicker. Once you do nab that parking space, Parker has a timer feature that will remind you when to move your car.
And in certain U.S. cities, Google Maps can even tell you how full a specific parking garage is, based on aggregated data.
