This app will save you from parking tickets

A mobile app called Parking wants to be your parking assistant. Don't tell the PPA.

A parking lot. Eventually.

Like many developers, Anthony Colangelo built Parking to solve a problem of his own.

He kept forgetting where he parked his car.
His iOS app, which works on mobile and Apple Watch, acts like a little parking assistant: it remembers where you parked and when you need to feed the meter.

Colangelo, 24, of Washington Square, works remotely for Big Cartel. (The company also has another remote developer in town — West Philly’s Cella Sum.) He’ll be speaking at CocoaLove, the fall iOS developers conference organized by a Philly crew. He said he used Parking to learn about Apple Watch development.
