ParkWhiz on your cell phone

As announced at last night’s NY Tech Meetup, ParkWhiz is now available on your cell phone, smart phone, or BlackBerry. Just open up your phone’s browser and point it at parkwhiz.com. You can do a basic search for parking and see details for indivual spots. We’ll be rolling out additional mobile functionality over the next couple months.

We’ve tested in on Opera Mobile and the Blackberry browser. If ParkWhiz doesn’t work with you phone’s browser, tell me and I’ll fix it!

    Does parkwhiz have the capability to determine my location when I am using a cell phone to access it? Can parkwhiz show the parking results on a map on my phone?
    Thanks

    No, ParkWhiz can’t currently determine your location through your cell phone, or show the results on a map. A more feature-filled version of ParkWhiz Mobile is in the works, however, and it will offer GPS and maps, along with the ability to purchase parking reservations from your phone.
