According to the BPA report, 4 in 10 drivers say finding somewhere to park is a stressful experience. The average motorist in the UK spends nearly four days every year (around 91 hours) looking for parking spaces. As for the US, the average time spent on looking for a parking space in New York is up to 107 hours per year.
Another issue is overpaying — drivers often overpay at garages to avoid getting a parking ticket, since they often don’t know for how long they will need to park. All that costs Americans more than $20 billion a year ($97 per driver), as the INRIX report estimated.
Time is money and clearly we cannot afford to lose so much time on such nonsense, and beauty practitioners too. This is one of the main reasons why apps that track parking space like ParkNav are necessary.
The Joy has partnered with ParkNav, an app that uses big data to make it much easier for its users to find where to park while going to the customers’ places.
The Parknav’s objective is to reduce the time spent searching for parking spaces in cities, thus saving a lot of energy and money. The app is available for iPhone and Android, its service is based on forecasts, statistics and real-time data. ParkNav uses this data to calculate the probability of finding a parking space on the street the user wants to park on.
The user can choose between free parking, parking with a paid ticket and parking with a permit. All the parking predictions are made in real time.
The ParkNav app is available for 240 cities across the US and Europe. ParkNav already serves over 100,000 users on its free mobile application and customer integrations.
Using ParkNav together with The Joy app will help beauty practitioners save time from circling around, anxiously looking for a parking lot. Moreover, being able to pick different options in terms of parking prices will also help to save money, as sometimes we do choose a more expensive parking lot out of frustration. Thus, The Joy’s partnership with ParkNav will help the practitioners to save both time and money, and even earn more, as they will be able to do more jobs!
