App already launched since autumn 2022

Since the app was launched in September 2022, Aparkado has already recorded over 7,000 international downloads. Thanks to the direct involvement of experienced truck drivers in the app development, LKW.APP scores with them with a realistic solution to their parking space problem. The display of the expected occupancy of parking spaces is unique and enables truck drivers to plan their journey and rest. In addition to official (blue) and potential (grey) parking spaces, a colored traffic light system shows the expected occupancy of parking spaces for which data is available. In combination with the assessment of the parking space occupancy by the users on site, Aparkado is striving for a real-time occupancy display.

First occupancy display of truck parking spaces outside of Germany

The display of the parking space occupancy is based on the pseudonymized processing of historical geodata. The expected occupancy of the parking spaces listed in Germany has already been visible to users since May 2023. Aparkado is now expanding the occupancy display throughout Europe. From more than 12,000 listed parking spaces in Europe, the LKW.APP now shows an occupancy forecast for over 5,000 parking spaces. This step enables truck drivers to find a suitable parking space within their driving time without stress, both on long and short distances.
