CarFinder – Find Your Parked Car

CarFinder helps you find your parked car quickly and reliably while keeping track of your parking time. Press START to save your parking location. The app then guides you back to your car using a direction arrow and a continuously updated distance display. On compatible Garmin watches, an additional map view is available with markers for “Car” and “You”. CarFinder is continuously developed and maintained for current Garmin watches, including newer models such as the Fenix 8. An integrated parking timer can remind you after 15 minutes to 3 hours with a vibration alert. GPS and compass status are displayed directly, allowing you to assess the quality of the navigation. The compass is continuously compared with the GPS heading, so you can see whether it is currently reliable. If there is insufficient GPS reception when saving the parking location, CarFinder will advise you to leave the building or underground car park first. Additional features: • Save, overwrite or delete your parking location with one press • Real-time direction arrow and distance display • Map view with preview, pan and zoom modes • Colour-coded GPS accuracy indicator • Reset the parking timer separately • Free-text field for parking space number, floor or location details • 6 selectable languages: German, English, French, Spanish, Italian and Portuguese • Regular updates and support for current devices If everything works well for you, I would appreciate a positive review. It helps make CarFinder more visible in the store. If something does not work, contact: [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) CarFinder collects anonymous usage statistics such as installations, app launches and parking-location saves. No GPS data, personal data or Garmin account information is transmitted.

Bug fix: The map view for finding your vehicle could crash on some devices. This has now been fixed—the map opens reliably and displays both the car marker and your current location. Thanks for reporting it! New: Map view for watches without maps On watches that don't have a built-in map (e.g. Venu, Vivoactive, Forerunner 255/265), CarFinder now shows your parked car on a real map – with your location and the walking route to it. Just enable it once in the settings. watches
