A short guide to help you use the parking spot booking and sharing feature
In the Tidaro app, employees can book a parking spot for the entire day, or for several hours.
Employees can book any spot or pick a desired spot from the interactive map.
Here are the steps to book a parking spot in Tidaro, with and without using the interactive map.
4. To book the first available spot on your chosen day, tap on Book any and the system will assign it to you.
5. If you want to pick a specific parking spot, you can tap on Map Pick to open the map of the parking lot. On the map, the available spots are represented by green circles. You can use your fingers to zoom on the map. Tap on one of the circles, then confirm your choice by using the Book this spot button at the bottom of the screen.
6. You can repeat the process to book a spot for other days in the office. You can see your upcoming bookings on the main screen of the Tidaro app or inside Parking -> Book a spot.
The app may ask you to enter license plate numbers before booking. Click on the red add your license plate number button on the main screen, then enter your vehicle numbers. Numbers can also be added and edited in the user panel at the top right of the screen. The app allows you to save up to 3 license plate numbers.
To release a parking spot, go to the release spots tab, select the days you want to release your booking, and confirm the action with the confirm dates button at the bottom of the screen.
Then you can release your spot for everyone to book by selecting the release for all. If your company has enabled spots sharing, you can hand over your parking spot to a specific person by selecting them from the list.
Please note that sharing a parking spot cannot be revoked on your own. If you wish to reclaim your parking spot, please contact your office administrator. You can also go to the book a spot tab to reserve a new spot.
1. Login to Tidaro
2. You will see a screen where you will be asked whether you want to allow notifications.
3. From the next screen that shows up you can select between allowing and not allowing us to send notifications. You can always turn off notifications from the phone’s settings.
4. In your Tidaro profile you also have the option to manage the notifications later on.
5. When a notification is being sent, and the app is off or in the background, the notification will be visible in the phone’s Notification Center.
6. When the app is opened, the notification will not be visible in the Notification Center. The upcoming bookings screen will be opened automatically in the app.
7. If you no longer need the booking, you can go with the “Release for tomorrow” option.
Is the parking lot full?
If so, you might still have a chance to find a spot, if someone else no longer needs their own spot.
To solve this problem, we created waiting lists. Here’s how the process works:
2. Select the parking zone you want to book a spot in, from the dropdown at the top of the screen.
3. If in your desired days there are no available parking spots, you can join waiting lists by selecting Join waiting list.
4. You will now see a confirmation message on the screen saying: You’ve joined the waiting list. You can join multiple lists. After joining one, or more, you can also visualize the position on the waiting lists. When enough parking spots become available, you will be assigned a spot automatically.
5. In the Tidaro dashboard, inside the Parking tab, you will again see information about the positions you’re on in your waiting lists.
6. Now you can get off from all the waiting lists by clicking on the Get off all button. If you only want to get off one list, choose the Show waiting lists option. Next you can pick the waiting list you no longer want to be in by clicking on Get off. Click on OK for the final confirmation.
7. If you want to book an available spot in a different zone, but you are still on the waiting list for the first parking zone, you will see a message asking you to confirm that you want to book that particular spot. After the confirmation, you will be removed from the waiting list.
8. If you confirm the booking, you will see the confirmation details inside a message. You can now release it, or visualize the spot on the map.
9. When you are on a waiting list and a spot becomes available and gets allocated to you, you will see a notification on your phone. Tap the notification to see the details of your parking spot booking.
