The Only Crowdsourcing Parking App Built For The Upper West Side

Leaving a spot? Someone on your block needs it.

SpotWhispr connects UWS drivers who are pulling out with drivers who are pulling in. Share your spot, earn a credit, and claim the next open space near home.

Free to download. Your first spot credit is on us.

Give a spot. Get a spot.

SpotWhispr runs on parking karma. Credits go around the neighborhood the same way spots do.

Share your Spot

Pulling out? Tell the app. When a neighbor takes your space, you earn a credit back.

Step 4

Keep it Moving

The more neighbors share, the easier parking gets for everyone on the block.

Never lose a morning to street cleaning again

Street cleaning day is when the most spots open up at once. SpotWhispr lets you line up a spot before the sweeper comes, so you move your car once and you are done.

Built for the way the UWS actually parks

Alerts near home

Set your block and get notified when a spot is opening close by.

Plan your move

Schedule when you are leaving or arriving so the right neighbor finds you.

Fair by design

Credits mean the people who share are the people who get spots.

Less circling, less idling

Fewer laps around the block means less traffic and cleaner air on our streets.

Simple to use

Open the app, see the spot, go. No meters to feed and no reservations to manage.

Made by neighbors

SpotWhispr was built on the Upper West Side by people who circle these blocks too.
