Updates
The latest version of the PayByPhone App (version 4.4.0) was released on July 19, 2023. It includes the following new features:
- New parking locations: The app now supports parking in more locations. You can now find parking in over 400 cities in the United States and Canada.
- New features for users with disabilities: Users with disabilities can now use the PayByPhone App to find accessible parking. The app will show you a list of accessible parking spots that are available in your area.
- Bug fixes: A number of bugs have been fixed in this version.
In addition to these new features, the latest version of the PayByPhone App also includes the following improvements:
- A new user interface: The app has been redesigned with a new user interface that is more modern and user-friendly.
- New features for developers: Developers can now use the PayByPhone SDK to create their own PayByPhone apps.
- Improved performance: The app has been optimized for better performance.
If you are currently using the PayByPhone App, I recommend that you update to the latest version to take advantage of these new features and improvements. You can download the latest version of the PayByPhone App from the Google Play Store or the App Store.
The PayByPhone app allows you to use your mobile phone to pay for parking across 11 countries, so you don't have to worry about carrying cash or visiting the machines while you're out and about. Park where and when you want without worrying about your meter expiring. The app can also detect parking fees posted at the time of payment (such as those incurred due to street cleaning), allowing you to avoid costly fines and fees.
After a massive redevelopment of the app to make it easier to navigate, PayByPhone is proud to announce its latest updates. The 'available spaces' filter is now public, which enables you to filter your results by parking space availability. This means that whether you're looking for a last-minute space or one further away from the city, you can search by how much time they have left until they expire and display parking spaces accordingly.
Parking prices increased with the update, but there are still cheaper options in busy areas such as New York's Greenwich Village and Midtown East. The new directions feature will show you exactly where to go when finding a spot, so no more circling around!
Features
1. Drivers can make a phone call instead of manually paying and parking on their app.
2. Drivers can set up autopay for parking sessions and use pay-as-you-go to avoid overpaying.
3. PayByPhones delivers intelligent alerts, so drivers know when their session is close to expiring without wasting data.
4. PayByPhone complies with city rules. Thus it's legal everywhere.
5. PayByPhone users only need to submit their credit card information once; the account will charge the card when it expires.
PROS
- You don't need cash.
- It has intelligent alerts notifying you when your session is ending
- Quick top-ups when you're running low on credit are super easy to add and can be done from the app or by phone.
- It's great for international travel because it doesn't use your data, so you can still use apps like Google Maps without a cellular connection.
- The app remembers your PIN and driver's license info. Just enter your license plate number and the number of hours you plan to park there, and you're good to go!
CONS
- You can't use this app if you don't have service or data on your phone, which is problematic because it doesn't work when there's no cell signal. - It also only works in certain cities like Boston, Austin, Toronto, London, etc., so it's not available everywhere.
- It would be more convenient if the app had an option to add the fee to your next bill instead of having to pay upfront.
- There are a lot of bugs that cause the application to crash frequently.
How to use
The PayByPhone app is very straightforward to use:
1. Download the app from Blackberry, Google Play, and the iOS App Store.
2. Tap the location code for where you want to park, which is written on signs along the street.
3. Add the amount of time you want to park. Check the details, and then make your choice.
4. From where you are, add more time. Launch the app and add time to the parking meter you're already using.
More
PayByPhone streamlines travel. The app understands you have much more to worry about than parking, making it easy to register, pay, and extend your stay without returning to your car. PayByPhone is accessible in 12 languages and can be used in 1,000+ places globally.
