App for Symbian remembers where you parked your car

If you have ever wasted time by looking all over for your parked car, a new app for Symbian powered devices can help you find where you parked your vehicle. It also is a timer that reminds you when you need to feed the parking meter. After you park your car, open up the "I Parked Here" app and click on "Remember my car". As the video below shows, you then enter the level and number of your spot before heading off , secure with the knowledge that you will be able to find your car. When you are ready to head home, you press on "Find my car" which gives you an option to use Ovi Maps or Google Maps. Once the map is up on the screen, you can use the turn by turn directions to get to your car, and on your way. Because the app uses Skyhook's Wi-Fi positioning system, it is faster than waiting for your GPS to lock in on a signal. The video is of the free trial version of the app, available at the Ovi Store. The full edition of the app costs 99 cents.
