Introducing **PPPark!**, the ultimate solution for finding affordable metered parking near your destination. With this app, you'll never have to worry about paying exorbitant parking fees again. Let's dive into what makes PPPark! a must-have for every driver.
For Users Unable to Start on Android 11
June 15, 2021
Some users have reported that the app crashes immediately upon launching on Android 11 devices. A temporary fix is to perform an "Erase Storage" action, which should allow the app to start up normally. However, please be aware that this action will delete your "parking lot posting history," and this data cannot be recovered.
Steps to Erase Storage:
- Open "Settings"
- Go to "Apps and Notifications"
- Select "PP Park!" from the list of applications
- Navigate to "Storage and Cache"
- Tap "Erase Storage"
This issue is related to Android 11, and Google is aware of it. While we anticipate a fix from Google and device manufacturers, similar issues persist globally. We apologize for any inconvenience and recommend using the "Erase Storage" method if you encounter this problem.

Important Notes:
- Devices running Android 4.0 or higher require "Google Play Developer Services" to use this app.
