Quick Users Manual:
When you have parked your car open Parkometer AR. The app will automatically start to locate your position. If you are inside a park house, parkade or parking garage (where a GPS signal is not available) Parkometer AR will search your position in the background and will take the first valid position fix once you leave the building.
If you are using a parking meter or a parking disc you can enter how long you are planning to park your car. Parkometer AR will track the time and notifies you with an alarm when it is time to return to your car. Thereby you can forget about time and concentrate solely on your shopping or other business.
When you want to return to your car Parkometer AR will assist you in many different ways to find the way back to your car. In the main view you see a compass in the upper part and a map in the lower part. The blue arrow in the compass area points in the direction of your car. In the center of the compass you see the remaining parking time and the distance to your car. The map shows the position of your car (blue parking sign) and your position (blue arrow).

The map display adjusts automatically, so that both positions are always within the view.
