Pearland, Texas, Affinicore, Inc. today is pleased to announce Park'n Find 2.2, a major update to its popular parking locator for iPhone devices (iPhone 3G and 3GS recommended). Designed specifically to take advantage of the iPhone's unique capabilities and touch interface, Park'n Find takes the frustration out of finding the car in a large parking lot. Perfect for casual and business use alike, Park'n Find obtains the users position using the iPhone GPS and approximates the location to a street address. Users may optionally attach photos, a voice memo, parking structure details, other notes, or request a Push Notification reminder when it is time to pay the parking meter. Additionally, Park'n Find tracks an unlimited number of parking locations. Users are guided back to their parking locations with a satellite image of the parking lot showing where their car is parked relative to their current position. The map keeps the area between the user and their car in focus with automatic map zooming and panning as the user moves closer or farther from their parked vehicle. iPhone 3GS users receive additional guidance by an arrow that shows which general direction to walk. User feedback for Park'n Find has been highly positive, with Park'n Find frequently ranked in the top ten paid applications in the Navigation category of the US iTunes App Store.

"I was parking in a large parking garage in a different location each day and would occasionally forget where I parked.
