Report a spot in a private group

Open the group’s map and tap Report open spot (on the website, Report a spot). Place the crosshair on the curb, then confirm the number of spaces, vehicle fit for a single space, and any useful location hint.

Group reports follow the group’s rules, not the public map’s:

• Inside the area. The pin has to be inside the parking area an admin drew for the group. A group without an area can’t take reports until an admin draws one.
• On the curb. Spotlert checks the pin against the street map for the block. If it looks like it’s on a building or away from a curb, drag it to the curb — or choose report anyway if the map is wrong.
• No duplicates. If a member already reported an open spot right there, Spotlert offers to update that spot’s count instead of adding a second pin.

Your report is visible only to the group’s approved members, and members who have notifications on can hear about the new opening. Group reports need a verified email.
