When arriving in a strange town, finding parking is going to be your first task. The ParkMe app (Free on iTunes and Google Play) will show you available garage and street parking either immediately around you or anywhere you search on their map, along with the cost for each one. You can filter your search by either garage or street parking, as well as cheapest or closest spaces. Still can't decide? Tap the ParkMe button at the bottom of the screen and the app will recommend the cheapest option in the area. In addition, the app will tell you how many spaces are left in the garage or on a particular metered street, so you can judge if you can make it there in time to take advantage of their availability.
Once you're parked, there is a handy in-app timer you can set to warn you when you have to move your car (great for metered street parking). And in case you can never remember where you parked, you can also mark the location of your spot in the app before you walk away.
