Parking on the Lock Screen

The countdown shows on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island while you’re parked.

When parking starts, it appears on the Lock Screen on its own: the vehicle’s photo, its plate, the time left and until when. On iPhones with the Dynamic Island it also shows at the top while you use other apps; press and hold it to see it larger.

If it doesn’t appear

Check that Live Activities are allowed for GarageApp in the iPhone’s Settings. If they’re off, the app shows a notification with the end time instead.

The “expiring soon” reminders are turned on with Parking alerts. See Choose which notifications you get.
