FSU Tranz
On your way to school when you are stopped at a light, just pull up this mobile app and see where to go. If there is an open garage but it is too far away from your class, park and take the bus the rest of the way.
So don’t delay download the FSU Tranz and you will be on your way to a low stress parking experience today. The best part is, it's free!

App does not update on GS20 FE. Sometimes shows nothing. Apple version seems much better. Please update to be as good as iOS app.
App doesn't refresh and sometimes doesn't show the student parking at all, just a white screen
i like um but im more like fsu my favorit colors and i love the program they have
the app works great!
Doesn't show anything
I just hope they didn't pay someone to write this app. You have to close the app if you want to refresh the student parking page, some pages won't load, not sure how accurate the numbers are. Should show lots with available parking and/or a map but it does not. I guess you could use it to get a ballpark idea but I wouldn't place any bets on its accuracy. Sometimes it says full but there are spaces available and sometimes it indicates availability that does not exist. Issue boils down partly to a larger parking/customer service issue with fsu that they do not seem to care to resolve
Wasn't accurate. Says spots in the garage and I get there and there are 20 cars circling in the garage looking for spots that don't exist. Ended up going home and using uber.
Horrible app, very poorly written, dates show weird. Sometimes the pages don't load, there are also images over the information. It doesn't actually show you how many spaces are left in the garages either, just a graph, and you are left to guess what it means.
Useful, but needs improvement. Here are some suggestions: 1. There should be a Refresh button or swipe-to-refresh. There's currently no way to tell if the displayed information is current or not, so you have to kill the app and reopen if you want to make sure. 2. The information could be displayed in a more streamlined way. The gauges are inherently inaccurate. If the garage capacity is 795 and the gauge says 7/8 full, approximately how many spot are available? It seems like it could be anywhere from 50 to 150. Is that how it works. Instead, just replace all that info with "78 spots available". 3. The garages that have floors closed off should be very clearly indicated on the main screen. Add a warning badge and fix the gauge to accurately represent the closure. If you do something like in 2 above, you could just subtract the number of reserved spots from the available count, and then you wouldn't even need to tell users about the closures.
It was a great way to estimate parking garage load until I got a new phone and this app apparently does NOT support Android 4.4.x, i.e. KitKat...making it, effectively, useless.
The app keeps crashing. Please update.
Can be slightly informative, but not really useful as it's wildly inaccurate in regards to capacity. I've seen "full" garages with two whole floors actually open, and "1/2 full" garages that are actually filled to the max. Also crashes frequently and has a rather bland interface. This COULD be a very useful app. Needs a lot of work. Give the CS dept an API for the garage capacity and let them do it better.
Horrible app, because it crashes/freezes CONSTANTLY! For such a renowned university that "strives for excellence," FSU falls way short. You would think that the school would be more concerned with the representation of their own image through a very basic app that is so commonly used and depended on by FSU students.......But like most issues at FSU, it all falls on deaf ears.
Old version which was tablets friendly. However, new version is not. Please add tablet support!
You can actually see the Woodward Garage status now. I like the fact they included the number of how many spots there are actually left, rather than just a gauge. Not really sure what else can be done.
This is a terrible app. With a University that strives for academic excellence, this app is a poor representation of the university. I'm not sure who created it, but it needs to be scrapped and built from scratch--maybe have a competition with the computer science students? It would give us a great app and a show piece for their portfolios.
The system seems a bit inaccurate, and the graphics are childish. The idea is fantastic! *update: since the latest update nothing works. Fail.
This app is terribly designed and poorly thought out. Computer science students at the university have wanted to do this for a while but the office withheld all the vital information we needed to make it successful so instead, someone at the transportation office made it and came up with this garbage. All it is is a ploy to get thousands of people to open his app and for him to make money off of his ads. The only nice thing is that an ad covers part of it so we don't have to look at it.
The add in the way at the bottom shows poor design layout. It's fairly accurate though. You can't expect it to say there are an exact number of spots left when the counter outside the garage lies. Lol
Only thing is that the transportation logo at the bottom of the student parking screen covers the last parking garage meter so its not visible.
I check this every morning. It is so helpful!
Due to the banner at the bottom you cannot see the Woodward Garage. It would be helpful if you could considering the garage is ALWAYS busy. Fix that and this ap would be extremely helpful!
Barely works on my galaxy nexus. I can only use this app on my iPod touch.
Why cant you give us the number of spaces left? Obviously you have the technology and you have no problem displaying it to the public. Why not help us out?
I love this app. Tami harrod
There is a link to this on the myfsu mobile app
Not entirely confident in how accurate it is. Dungeness it doesn't update regularly... I almost drove to a parking garage because the app said it was practically empty, then I noticed the date was over a week ago. I don't need to know how busy the garage was last week, I need to know today..
