EMEL, part of the municipality of Lisbon, which manages paid parking lots, today launched a new version of ePark app that allows pay parking lots without using coins or parking meters. Contrary to usual, Android device users shall not receive any alerts on your phone to update. This means that users will be able to download the new app and keep the old operating. Ultimately, may continue to use both to pay the car parking in Lisbon. And so it will be up to EMEL disable the old app.
Migration is only required on Android devices. Those who use iPhone will only make the traditional upgrade without having to seek new app in the Apple store.
The fact that the user of an Android device to use, simultaneously, two apps for the same purpose It allows us to understand the reason for the EMEL to use the ‘migration’ term, rather than announcing a traditional upgrade. The municipal company began working in that migration in January, by sending SMS and e-mails that have announced the launch of a new app that “it is not an upgrade.”
Today, it is no longer possible download the old version of ePark from app stores. Only apps ePark who were discharged before the migration period remain operational in mobile phone customers EMEL. Soon, these apps will be inoperative, ensures EMEL not come up with a date.
Even before the shutdown, users may be unable to use the app to pay for parking. The EMEL announces that, starting today, you can not make shipments to the old app. – Which means that, once exhausted the amounts “born” in the days before, the old app will lose the core functionality
When the Exame Informática found after the release of the new ePark, most of the 100,000 users of the old ePark have already made the migration / upgrade. The new app keeps data and balance of each user in the old app
The two apps have Quaser all features in common -. But there are also additions and absences to be registered. In the absence, highlighting the fact that the new app does not contemplate the payment via PayPal The EMEL guarantees that soon, this option will be available
The additions are more numerous and promising:.. The new app passed to allow automatically updating the customer’s location, distinguishes accurately the different fare zones and allows you to manage the parking of more than one vehicle. Besides not require coins, the app still has warning features for the end of the pay period or charge only the amount corresponding to the parking place of occupation.
