ParkMan - The Parking App
Here is how it works:1. Choose your parking position from the map, and pay for parking by pressing the start parking button.2. When you leave, press the stop parking button. That way you only pay for the exact time you used.3. As you leave, you will automatically help others find the parking spot you just left.
The more ParkMan-users there are, the better it will work for you and everyone else.

Annoying to use if one doesn't use automatic updates. The app would be better if it didn't ask at all, or at least would ask after parking has ended and not when one would quickly just want to park.
Good app that's easy to use, but is missing one feature that would make it great, it should show nearby parking spaces and the prices next to them, because how it is now, you only know the price of parking once you are in the parking lot and you have to find a parking space by yourself, instead of choosing one from the app. Another feature would be nice of being able to schedule parking to start at a later time for parking spots that have set times that you need to pay for.
Notifications stopped working. Got a parking ticket, because of this 🤬 I will never use this app again.
Put my phone number in, doesn't send code. Waste of time. Uninstalled.
Easy to use, even with multiple car and rental ones
Couldn't use the discount for the first parking, the customer service promised to give me another discount but I didn't receive it. Disappointing
Convenient app, but more expensive than the ticket machines. It is useful if you need to extend your time, as saves having to go back to the car to buy a new ticket. But you pay more for the service. eg: Linnanmäki amusement park in Helsinki is 3e per hour. With app it is 3.65e for 1 hour (+65c) or 6.95e (+95c) for 2 hours and 10,20e for 3 hours (+1,20e). I thought this would get me better prices, not worse ones!
When you decide to park, they change the parking fee + their profit, so for instance I park for 1 hour and the parking fee was 4 Euro, they charge 4.50 euro. That is okay. But then if you take a moment (seconds) to decide, then they increase their fee, to make you feel stressed to park. So suddenly the parking + fee was 4.65 euro and as I thought, shall I pay for 1 or 2 hours? Their fee increased over time. So when I paid, they wanted 4.75 euro. For me this is annoying. Take another app.
(edited after initial slow response to support requests - was adderesed and solved). Good app for parking while travelling. Parking in Tallinn always gave me nightmares but ParkMan solves that beautifully. Probably won't use in home city as surcharge for short parkings is a bit too much. Other than that highly recommended.
There are some bugs in payment screens. App also updates/saves card information in some cases without notifying user about it, in such cases where it definitely shouldn't. Could lead into nasty surprises for some users.
Does not work for international numbers. No SMS recieved. Tried several phones. Parking in Estonia is a nightmare for international visitors. Totally shameful for a country supposedly so digital.
After a whole day of struggling wit it to make it work, it finally does. I Gave it 1 star before. But it was a day of struggle when I received verification codes, punched them in and got a message they are invalid. I have 17 codes in total. Come on!
Horrible app. I have parked near Pasila using the app, with countdown on, and when my job was done, came back, stopped, the amount was about 6 eu, paid and go on. After a week I receive email, which claims, that I haven't paid. Right away called ParkMan, and the answer was simple. They were not charging at the same time, but once a month! Seriously?! How about if I use 20 parking, and each 10 eu? So have to pay at once 200 eu end of month?! Thiefs and crooks. Uninstall!!!!!
Cannot get in to use the app, because it won't register my acceptance of the legal terms. Every time I click 'Accept' the pop-up bounces right back up.
I wish you could park two cars at the same time, on the same account. My wife and I use the same account and have both cars registered. If one of us parks one car, we cannot park the 2nd.
This app is designed to get you a fine. Look instead for a manual payment by the parking lot. VERY bad experience with the app. I don't understand how Helsingør kommunen give them permission to operate.
International mobile numbers in connection with activation doesn't work - so rather hard to rate the app - apart from the fact it is "as such" useless.
After verifying my phone number, I get an error message saying "ParkMan does not currently work in this country". And I can't use ParkMan. I'm in Finland and Parkman definitely is here.
Terrible and sketchy app, avoid at all cost! Requires you to attach credit card even if you have promo code. Very shady, makes me wonder what they use it for? Do they sell it? It also does not accept valid promo codes, and does not accept valid licence plates. Just terrible.
Used to be fine before update. Stopped using. Problems starting up and disconnecting. EDIT Seems to be fine now,,😊
Don't know why or how, but the app is overcharging. Over the month, I have paid way way wayyyyyyy more than usually would. For 5min I paid 0.47 euro cents. It adds up to being a lot of money for nothing.
The app froze and did not let me end my parking. As well as that, their support team did not even care to pick up my calls and I was left to tackle this parking problem by myself
Update: custommer support finally reached me. We figured that I paid for ship parking instead of a car, that's why I got fined :) My problem was settled very professionally.
Best parking app for Finland. No need more to find parking machine. Just park a car, go anywhere and register car on the go
Despite the numerous adverts around, I've never managed to get this app to work - it just says it's not available in my country (Finland) despite it being advertised everywhere.. fix it.
