To avoid a surprise parking ticket, the <a href="https://www.agencemobilitedurable.ca/fr/infos-pratiques/mobicite" target="_blank">Agence de mobilité durable de Montréal</a> is asking drivers to switch over to a new app called Mobicité, available now on iOS and Android.</p><p>Much like the old P$ app, Mobicité lets you pay for on-street parking and some city lots right from your phone. It charges the same $0.07 transaction fee, and adds a few handy new features, including:</p> <ul> <li> A warning 10 minutes before your session ends</li> <li> The ability to manage multiple credit cards</li> <li> A live timer showing how much time you have left</li> </ul> <p>There's also a web version in the works, which should help drivers without smartphones.</p><p>One key thing to know: your data from the old app won't transfer. You'll need to create a fresh account on Mobicité. If you want access to your past parking history, you'll need to log in to your old P$ account on the agency's website and download it before December 15, 2025, as it'll be permanently deleted after that date.</p><p>The old app, which was developed by Passport and not the city itself, faced criticism for buggy performance, crashes, and connectivity issues. So the Agence tapped Quebec-based Mirego to build Mobicité from the ground up.</p><p>You can download Mobicité <a href="https://apps.apple.com" target="_blank">on the App Store</a> or <a href="https://play.google.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Google Play</a>, and start using it today. Just don't forget to switch over before July 31 — unless you enjoy fumbling with coins, squinting at faded screens, and frantically running back to feed the metre like it's 2005.</p><p><em>Love this?
