For the spots that just work.
Free overnight parking, scored by the people who slept there.
How it works
Your phone logs the night.
- STEP 1
Sleep somewhere
If tracking stays is enabled, the phone can tell when your vehicle hasn’t moved all night and logs the stay by itself. No check-in. The GPS trail stays on the phone. What gets sent is the spot it matched and the hours you were there.
- STEP 2
Answer one question
In the morning it asks how it went: Good, Meh, Got knocked, or Ticket. That’s where the reliability, risk and crowding numbers come from.
- STEP 3
Log three nights
After three logged stays you get exact pins and a ranked list for tonight. Lots where people have been logging a lot of stays drop down the list.
What the server gets
The database stores as little about where you sleep as it can. Here's what it keeps.
No GPS tracks on the server
The phone figures out that you stayed. All it sends is a spot id and the hour you arrived and the hour you left.
Your stay records are deleted after 30 days
The spot stays on the map for good. After 30 days the record of who slept there is gone and all that’s kept is a vehicle count per spot per night, with no user ids.
Enforcement reports don't name anyone
A report says a lot got checked on a given night. Your id comes off the report after 7 days.
This site only shows areas
Each hex is about a quarter square mile and only appears once 3+ people have stayed in it. Exact spots are in the app once you’ve logged three stays yourself.
