Set a reminder to share your permit space

Get a regular notification reminding you to share your reserved permit space.


Overview

If you have a reserved permit, you can set up a reminder so the Parkable app prompts you to share your space on days you don't need it. This is useful if your schedule changes week to week, so you don't forget to free up your space for other parkers. When someone parks in your shared space, you earn sharing credits that reduce your next permit bill β€” see I'd like to share my permit space, how does it work? for how credits work.

Note: Your parking administrator may have already set a default reminder for you. You can change or turn it off using the steps below.


How to set a reminder

  1. Open the Parkable app

  2. Tap the sharing reminder section in the Share my space card, underneath your active permit

  3. Choose how often you want the reminder β€” Daily, Weekdays (Monday to Friday), or a specific day of the week (e.g. Tuesday)

  4. Choose the time of day for the reminder

  5. Tap Set to save

The reminder will repeat automatically on the chosen schedule until you turn it off or your permit ends.

Note: Reminders are delivered in the parking facility's local timezone, no matter where you are.

Note: Reminders come as push notifications. If you're not getting them, see Enable notifications from the Parkable app.


How to turn off the reminder

  1. Open the Parkable app

  2. Tap the sharing reminder section in the Share my space card

  3. Set the frequency to Off

  4. Tap Set to save

This cancels any pending reminders.
