Parkmobile: The New Mobile App in Ford's SYNC AppLink

Parkmobile has allowed several thousands of customers to pay for parking while on the go with a simple touch of a smart phone. Thanks to the creation of new applications, Ford has incorporated Parkmobile into their latest in-car SYNC AppLink. This allows those who are driving to pay for parking without having to fiddle with their smart phones. Parkmobile is a mobile app meant for Android devices.

The overall goal of the SYNC system that Ford has implemented is to allow those who are currently engaged with other tasks to have the ease of parking via their car system. It not only saves time, it also takes the distraction of having to find the app on your smart phone and confirm the payment. This system will not only eliminate the need for loose toll change but it will also be easier than stopping to pay an attendant or fiddling with your toll pass. The current locations that allow you to pay through SYNC AppLink are stadiums, hospitals, municipalities, airports, and private operators.

Although you do not have to have a smart phone in order to pay for a parking spot, you do have to have one in order to receive the notifications from your parking payment. When you have purchased so much parking time, it will automatically send you a text notification when that time is about to expire. This allows those who find themselves shopping or currently occupied enough time to prepay for a longer amount of time or get to their vehicle and move it. The payment methods accepted by the Ford SYNC Parkmobile app are all major credit cards and debit cards but with an added bonus of accepting PayPal payments too.

The Ford Company currently offers SYNC AppLink in over 1.5 million vehicles. These vehicles include the Ford F-150, Ford Mustang, Ford Edge, Ford E-Series, Ford Fiesta, Ford Focus, Ford Flex, Ford Explorer and Ford Fusion. Devices that are compatible with Android will be allowed to download the app immediately. However, those who have the iPhone will have to wait longer until the app is offered on that platform. Those without Ford vehicles can still download the Parkmobile app if they have the iPhone 5.0, Android 1.6, Blackberry 10.0, Windows Phone 7.5, and any newer model within these device brands. You can transfer the account information from your current phone to your new Ford as long as it comes equip with SYNC AppLink.
